THE OPPORTUNITY
Do you have experience and success in social creation for fitness, especially with gym or class-focused wellness organizations? Join us and create THE BEST WORK OF YOUR CAREER.
Please note this role is 100% in-office in the Costa Mesa / Newport Beach area, or at fitness Club locations throughout the LA MSA. This role is not remote. Preference given to local candidates; no relocation provided.
ABOUT US. We’re a highly-respected, growing, multi-brand fitness company (primarily in LA MSA) with unique differentiation and a strong growth path. We’re building a small, world-class internal team from the ground up, and need a nimble, top shelf, overachieving social media guru and content creator who exists in rarified air: your creativity, results, flexibility, and relentless drive consistently set you above your peers. Your portfolio makes people say, “WOW!” for all the right reasons, and you know how to create and deploy social to drive the goals – not just shovel volumes of “cool” content onto the platforms.
You'll report to the Sr. Director of Marketing and work closely with the Senior Designer to produce a consistent, high-volume stream of polished video, animated, still, and written content for social channels for two consumer brands.
As the Content guru, you will be the voice of the brand across multiple channels and will own our social media content calendar, possess excellent content creation skills, and be capable of leading a project from ideation through completion. You will utilize a combination of community engagement, short-form writing, and viral marketing strategies to drive the overall content strategy across social.
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable shooting in a live retail environment, producing short- and medium-form videos, and capturing spontaneous, real-time moments at live events.
You will own video content production across multiple high-visibility platforms. This is a hands-on communications and camera-and-edit role for someone who thinks natively in short-form video, moves fast on location and in post, and knows how to make content extend across platforms that stops the scroll. You need significant experience with FB, IG, X, TikTok, and YouTube, with a sprinkling of LinkedIn, both as a creator of static and video content, and as the hub of communications with the audiences.
