Social Media Manager

About Creative Nuts

Creative Nuts is a creative agency building bold, thoughtful, and culturally sharp work for brands that want to show up differently. We sit at the intersection of design, content, and strategy and social is where a lot of that work comes alive. We're a small, high-trust team that ships fast, argues about craft, and treats every brand like it's our own.

About the Role

We're hiring a Social Media Manager(Mid Level) to shape how our brands think, plan, and win on social, build the team that executes it, and help bring new clients through the door. This is not a posting-and-scheduling role. You'll own the strategy layer across multiple client accounts, structure the team of social media executives who bring those strategies to life, and sit at the table when we're pitching for new business.

You'll be the person who turns a brand's ambition into a social plan that moves numbers, the person who turns a group of executives into a team that ships reliably, and the person clients meet when they're deciding whether to work with us. If you have opinions on why most brand social feels forgettable, ideas on how to fix it, and the presence to sell that thinking in a pitch room, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Strategy and planning

• Build and own social media strategies for client brands across industries
• Translate brand and business objectives into platform-specific plans across Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and emerging platforms
• Develop content pillars, tone-of-voice guidelines, and monthly content roadmaps
• Lead monthly and quarterly planning cycles with clients and internal teams
• Bring cultural, competitive, and platform insights to every planning session
• Track performance across accounts, identify what's working, and rework what isn't

Team leadership and structure

• Hire, train, and mentor a team of social media executives
• Build the systems, SOPs, and workflows that let the team ship consistently at scale
• Set up planning rhythms, review processes, and quality checkpoints
• Review and approve content before it goes live, and coach the team through feedback
• Own the health of the pipeline: brief clarity, timelines, approvals, and posting cadence
• Grow executives into strategists over time

New business and pitches

• Partner with founders and business leads on new client pitches
• Build the social strategy sections of pitch decks audit, opportunity, approach, and roadmap
• Present social thinking confidently in pitch rooms and pre-pitch conversations
• Shape scopes of work, deliverables, and team structures for incoming accounts
• Turn early client conversations into sharp, differentiated points of view
• Help translate a win into a smooth onboarding for the delivery team

What We're Looking For

• 2–3 years of experience in social media strategy, ideally in an agency setup managing multiple brands at once
• Prior experience training, mentoring, or leading junior team members even informally
• Experience contributing to pitch decks and new business conversations
• A strong portfolio of brand social work you can walk us through the thinking, not just the output
• Deep working knowledge of Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and X, and a genuine curiosity about newer platforms
• Comfort with analytics tools (Meta Business Suite, LinkedIn Analytics, native platform insights, and any third-party tools you've used)
• Sharp writing and presentation skills you can build a deck and defend it in a room
• Confidence in front of clients and prospects, whether it's a review call or a pitch
• Strong grasp of brand building, content strategy, and community growth as connected disciplines
• An instinct for structure you naturally build systems, checklists, and processes that make teams faster
• Ability to balance strategic thinking with the speed reactive content demands
• Comfort working across categories B2B, consumer, lifestyle, sports, wellness, and more
