• Align all content with national brand standards while tailoring execution to local markets
• Engage with audiences in real time, participating in relevant conversations and representing the brand in a thoughtful, professional manner
• Partner with PR teams to amplify publicity, events, and philanthropic initiatives across social channels
• Analyze performance metrics and deliver monthly reporting with actionable insights to continuously improve results
• Develop and deliver agent education through presentations, decks, and clear, engaging storytelling that simplifies social media concepts and drives adoption

What Success Looks Like

• Content that feels modern, elevated, and distinctly on-brand
• Strong engagement and audience growth across local channels
• Meaningful contribution to recruiting and retention efforts
• Consistent execution across multiple markets with attention to detail
• Ability to operate independently while managing multiple deadlines and priorities

Requirements

• 2–4 years of experience in social media marketing, content creation, or digital media
• Proven experience creating and editing high-performing social media content, especially short-form video
• Proficiency in video editing and design tools (e.g., CapCut, Canva, Adobe Creative Suite or similar), with a strong ability to produce high-quality, platform-native content that aligns with current social media trends and drives engagement
• Strong understanding of platform strategy and best practices across Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn
• Experience managing and publishing content across regional or multi-location social media accounts, including featured listings, PR hits, agent recognition, and company announcements
• Exceptional writing, editing, and communication skills
• Experience working in Microsoft Office (Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Word)
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet fast-paced deadlines with minimal supervision
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams and stakeholders
• Comfortable supporting both virtual and in-person training or presentations
• Real estate or agency experience is a plus
• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Media, or a related field preferred

Additional Information
