Full Job Description

Social Media Content Creator - Detour XL Sunglasses Page

Company: Detour Sunglasses
Role Type: Part-Time to Start, Potential Full-Time Opportunity
Location: In-person / local content creation required

Detour Sunglasses is looking for an outgoing, funny, and charismatic Social Media Content Creator to help grow our XL sunglasses social media page.

This role is not just filming product videos or sitting behind a desk editing content. We are looking for someone who is comfortable being out in public, talking to strangers, creating funny moments, and turning real-life interactions into entertaining social media content.

The main focus will be creating content around our XL sunglasses line, including street interviews, challenges, funny skits, reaction-style videos, and other social-first content designed for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and paid ads.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be responsible for helping create fun, engaging, and personality-driven content for our XL sunglasses page. This may include:

Going out in public to interact with strangers and film street-style content
Running challenges, giveaways, and funny social experiments
Creating skits and short-form videos around big heads, sunglasses, confidence, fashion, and everyday funny situations
Being on camera as the face/personality of the content
Coming up with new content ideas that fit the Detour XL brand
Helping film, organize, and potentially edit short-form videos
Testing different hooks, formats, and content styles to see what gets traction
Working with our team to create content that can be used organically and in ads

Who We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who naturally has a funny, outgoing, and charismatic personality. You should be the type of person who can walk up to strangers, start a conversation, and make people feel comfortable on camera.

This role is a great fit for someone who:

Is very comfortable on camera
Is not afraid to approach strangers in public
Can handle awkward or uncomfortable situations without getting nervous
Has a strong sense of humor
Can think quickly and improvise
Understands TikTok/Reels-style content
Enjoys creating funny, entertaining, and sometimes slightly uncomfortable social content
Has good energy and can keep conversations fun
Is reliable, self-motivated, and willing to test different content ideas
Can represent the brand in a positive and professional way while still being fun

Important: This Is a Public-Facing Content Role

A big part of this job will involve being out on the street, at events, in public areas, or in other real-world settings getting content with strangers.

You need to be comfortable with rejection, awkward moments, and unpredictable interactions. The right person will be able to laugh things off, keep the energy up, and turn everyday situations into entertaining videos.

Example Content Ideas:

Some examples of the type of content you may help create:

“Big Head Challenge” street interviews
Asking strangers to try on XL sunglasses
Funny fit checks
Public giveaways
“Does this fit your head?” style videos
Skits about people who can never find sunglasses that fit
Reaction videos with customers or strangers
Challenges where people can win a free pair

Experience

What matters most is your personality, confidence, creativity, and ability to create entertaining moments with real people.

Role Structure

We are open to both part-time and full-time, but ideally this role would start part-time so we can test the content, see what gets traction, and make sure it is a good fit for both sides.

If the content performs well and the role proves valuable, there is potential for this to grow into a full-time position.

Nice to Have

Experience creating TikToks, Reels, or YouTube Shorts
Basic video editing skills
Comfort filming with a phone or camera
Interest in comedy, street interviews, fashion, sports, or lifestyle content
Understanding of viral hooks and short-form video trends

We care less about a perfect resume and more about whether you have the personality, confidence, and creativity to make fun content people actually want to watch.

Pay: $20.00 - $30.00 per hour

Benefits:

Health insurance
Paid time off
Vision insurance

Application Question(s):

Are you comfortable being in front of the camera and talking with strangers?
How would you describe your personality?
What is your background in social media?
Do you have any editing background?
Why do you think you would be a good fit for this role?
