Job description

The role

We're looking for a Social Media Content Creator to join us two days a week at our Bushwick warehouse. You'll be the on-camera presence for our social channels — filming behind-the-scenes production content, product shots, video ads, tutorials, and more. This is a hands-on role. We need someone who's comfortable and confident on camera, can shoot and edit their own content, and brings ideas to the table.

What you'll do

• Create engaging short-form video content for Instagram, TikTok, and other platforms
• Film behind-the-scenes content, especially of candle making
• Appear on camera as a face of the brand, bringing personality and energy to our content
• Develop and pitch creative content ideas that align with our brand voice
• Stay on top of social trends and help us translate them into content that feels authentic to Element Brooklyn
• Collaborate with our small team to brainstorm campaigns, launches, and creative direction

You might be a great fit if you...

• Have strong on-camera presence – you're confident, personable, and natural in front of a lens. This is a core part of the role.
• Have experience creating social content (personal or professional)
• Know your way around basic video editing
• Have a good eye for visual storytelling and aesthetics
• Are reliable, self-directed, and comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment
• Are based in NYC and can reliably get to Bushwick twice a week

Ideal for creatives with flexible schedules

This role was designed with actors, artists, and other creative professionals in mind – people who are talented and camera-ready but aren't looking for a full-time job right now.

We offer genuinely flexible scheduling (we can coordinate around your other commitments as long as you can agree to the two days per week), a creative, hands-on work environment and the chance to build a portfolio of professional brand content. If you are looking for full time work, there is the opportunity for this role to expand over time.

Compensation

This role will pay $45 p/h and will participate in our end-of-year performance bonus pool.
