Job Overview
As the Content Marketing Specialist at Somerled, you will lead the charge in creating compelling, on-brand content across our social media (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest) and other organic digital channels. You’ll be responsible for both strategy and execution, developing content that captures our design-forward, hospitality-driven aesthetic while supporting business goals.
This role will report to the Marketing Manager and blends creativity with organization: you’ll own the content calendar, oversee post scheduling, manage visual asset organization, and ensure all content aligns with Somerled’s tone and style.
