Associate Social Media Editor at Esquire shaping cultural conversations through social media engagement. Responsible for producing content across various platforms and collaborating with editorial teams.
About the role
- Social Media Strategist for elasticStage redefining music access through organic social media growth. Managing content and driving engagement across multiple platforms in a hybrid work model.
Responsibilities
- Own elasticStage’s entire organic social media strategy and content calendar across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Facebook, turning social into a primary growth channel.
- Create, produce, and/or commission scroll-stopping organic content (short-form video, carousels, Reels, Stories, threads) that drives engagement, shares, saves, creator sign-ups, and real orders.
- Define and evolve elasticStage’s social voice, visual aesthetic, and posting rhythm, ensuring a consistent, authentic, and unmistakable brand presence.
- Grow and engage a high-quality community of independent artists, labels, and music fans, actively participating in conversations, comments, and DMs.
- Identify, pitch, and manage creator and influencer partnerships (from micro to mid-tier), working directly with music creators to generate authentic platform advocacy.
- Turn social engagement into measurable business impact, driving referral traffic, platform sign-ups, and sales through clear calls-to-action and content strategy.
- Track, analyse, and optimise social performance across key metrics including follower growth, engagement rate, reach, referral traffic, creator sign-ups, and orders.
- Collaborate closely with SEO, marketing, and product teams to ensure social content supports search visibility and broader growth initiatives.
- Surface insights from comments, DMs, and community feedback to inform content ideas, creator outreach, and product improvements.
- Stay on top of platform trends, formats, and cultural moments in music and creator communities, adapting quickly to what’s working and what’s next.
Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on social media strategy and execution, with proven success in viral content
- Deep expertise in growing organic accounts exponentially through Gen Z-native tactics: jumping on trending audio/sounds, meme formats, pop culture hijacks, comment-section raids, and short-form video chaos that feels spontaneous and human, not corporate.
- Track record of turning entertainment into measurable business impact, driving sign-ups, creator onboardings, platform orders, referral traffic, and revenue from social (not just likes/views; show the numbers on conversions and LTV uplift).
- Proven experience securing and managing creator/influencer partnerships from cold outreach to full campaign delivery, especially in music, creator economy, or niche communities where authenticity wins.
- Extremely comfortable with data: analyzing GA4, native platform insights, link tracking, attribution models, and social SEO signals (e.g., how viral shares/content drive organic search visibility, backlinks, and keyword rankings).
- Killer creative instincts for 2026 internet culture
- Exceptional written, visual, and storytelling skills
- Genuine, obsessive passion for independent music, creators, and the vinyl/CD revival scene, bonus if you've got personal ties to artists/labels or live the "music discovery on social" life.
- Bonus (big ones): Hands-on short-form video production/editing (CapCut, Premiere, etc.), deep music industry knowledge, basic SEO fundamentals (social signals, content syndication)
