Social Media Creative / Manager (Contract) – $5,000.00/month
We’re hiring a social media creative and manager on a contract basis to own content across a portfolio of brand accounts spanning political communications, film and entertainment, and civic advocacy. Strong potential to convert to a full-time role. This is a hands-on job for someone who can both make the work and run the calendar — not a strategist who hands off to a designer.
What you’ll do:
- Own day-to-day social: planning, creating, publishing, and community management
- Shoot, edit, and design original short-form video, carousels, and graphics
- Build and maintain content calendars, keeping distinct brand voices and audiences straight
- Move fast on real-time moments — news cycles, launches, cultural hooks
- Track performance and report on what’s working, with a clear point of view on what to do next
- Collaborate with leadership on campaigns and creative direction
What we’re looking for:
- 2+ years running brand or campaign social accounts, with a portfolio that shows it
- Strong short-form video editing skills (CapCut, Premiere, or similar) and comfort in Canva/Figma or Adobe CC
- Native fluency in how Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn actually work — including what each platform is rewarding right now
- Ability to write sharp, on-voice copy and switch registers between very different brands
- Self-directed and organized; you’ll be juggling multiple calendars at once
- Bonus: bilingual English/Spanish, plus experience in politics, campaigns, or entertainment
Details:
Contract role, remote or Houston-based, with potential to move to full-time. Monthly retainer or hourly, depending on scope. Start date flexible.
To apply: Send your resume, portfolio or reel, and links to accounts you’ve run to info@maketheconexion.com.
Pay: $5,000.00 per month
Work Location: Remote
