Free Press seeks Social Media Manager - $60k to $65k
Free Press fights to save Net Neutrality, achieve affordable internet access for all, uplift the voices of people of color in the media, challenge old and new media gatekeepers to serve the public interest and end disinformation and hate, end unwarranted surveillance, defend press freedom and reimagine local journalism.
We’re looking for a social media manager to develop and maintain the overall social media strategy for Free Press. In this role, you will:
Distill complex policy issues into concise, relatable bites of content
Monitor news stories and trending topics, and maximize rapid response opportunities
Support program teams in developing high-performing content and campaigns
Know what’s new, exciting and ethical in the world of online organizing platforms and services
Center race equity in all aspects of internal and external work
This job requires flexibility in work schedule, generally aligning to Eastern Time zone business hours, and requires evening and weekend work during peak campaign cycles and in the lead up to special events. This is not an ideal position for someone who seeks a traditional 9am-5pm schedule. When the COVID-pandemic is under control, regular local, regional and national domestic travel will be required, including to events or meetings hosted by others.
The position can be remote from anywhere in the U.S., or based in our D.C. office (once it re-opens, post-COVID)
