Full role: Social Media Content Creator

Don't make it nice.
Make it ours.

Every session is content waiting to happen. Glass flying. Screens cracking. A shy accountant turning into a wrecking ball. We need someone who shows up once a week to catch it, then cuts it and gets it in front of the right people. You own our social channels end to end. One person, the full loop.
