Job Title: Social Media & Content Creator
Location: Nigeria
Employment Type: Contract
Work Mode: Remote
Working Hours: 8:00am – 5:00pm (WAT)
About the Role
- We are looking for a creative, platform-native Social Media Manager and Content Creator to own our brand’s digital presence, drive our content strategy, and create content from the ground up.
- This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone early in their career who is hungry, camera-ready, and built for the internet.
- Your core mission: build an audience that trusts us, create content that converts, and show up as the face of the brand — through original video, Canva-designed visuals, edited short-form content, and community storytelling.
- You will not just post content. You will own the strategy, appear on camera, design the assets, edit the videos, and drive the growth.
- If you live on the internet and are not afraid of a lens — this role was built for you.
Key Responsibilities
Content Strategy:
This is your strategy to own. You define the direction, not just the calendar
- Own and drive the end-to-end content strategy — from audience insight and content pillars to channel mix and publishing cadence.
- Build and manage an editorial calendar aligned with campaigns, product launches, and business objectives.
- Define and continuously evolve the brand voice, tone, and visual identity across all digital touchpoints.
- Conduct regular audience research, competitive analysis, and trend monitoring to keep content sharp and culturally relevant.
- Work closely with leadership, product, and sales to translate company milestones into compelling content stories.
- Surface audience insights, engagement patterns, and behavioural signals to inform the wider marketing strategy.
Content Creation & Production:
- You are the creator. You shoot it, design it, edit it, and publish it.
- Appear on camera as the face of the brand — presenting, storytelling, and educating directly to our audience through Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn video.
- Design all visual content in Canva — social graphics, carousels, story templates, promotional assets, and branded design elements — to a consistently high standard.
- Edit video content across formats using CapCut, Adobe Premiere, or similar tools — cutting, captioning, adding music, applying transitions, and optimising for each platform.
- Write clear, engaging, on-brand copy for captions, newsletters, scripts, and campaign assets.
- Shoot lo-fi, authentic video content that feels native and relatable on each platform.
- Repurpose long-form content (webinars, interviews, reports) into snackable, high-performing social formats.
- Generate and curate social proof — testimonials, UGC, community wins, and success stories.
Content Types You Will Work With:
- A-Roll — talking-head, instructor, testimonial, interview footage
- B-Roll — screen recordings, walkthroughs, cutaways, behind-the-scenes
- Short-Form Video — Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts
- Long-Form Video — webinars, course modules, live class replays
- Explainer Videos — animated or narrated learning content
- Promo & Ad Creatives — platform video ads
- Testimonial Videos — student success stories
- Event Recap Videos — bootcamp and workshop highlights
- Motion Graphics & Animation — intros, outros, kinetic text
- Screen Recordings & Tutorials — LMS and software guides
- Podcast Visuals — audiograms and video podcast cuts
Social Media Management:
- You own the channels. You grow the numbers. You build the presence.
- Own the day-to-day management of all social channels — Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, X (Twitter), Facebook, and YouTube.
- Develop platform-specific strategies tailored to each channel’s algorithm, culture, and audience behaviour.
- Schedule, publish, and engage in real time — responding to comments, DMs, and mentions to build a genuine community.
- Monitor trends, sounds, formats, and cultural moments and move quickly to capitalise on them.
- Grow follower count, engagement rate, and brand reach with a clear month-on-month improvement mindset.
Community Building & Engagement:
- You do not just manage a following — you build a community people genuinely want to belong to.
- Build and manage owned communities across WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, or Circle — designing structured onboarding and activation journeys.
- Plan and execute community engagement programmes: AMAs, challenges, webinars, and brand rituals that deepen loyalty.
- Moderate discussions, respond to queries, and act as the bridge between community members and internal teams.
- Identify, recruit, and nurture brand advocates, super-users, and community champions through a structured programme.
- Monitor community sentiment and feedback, translating insights into content and messaging improvements.
Growth & Campaign Support:
- Your content feeds the funnel. You think beyond the post.
- Create performance-driven content assets that support awareness, lead generation, conversion, and retention goals.
- Support integrated campaigns: product and programme launches, themed activations, giveaways, and influencer or creator partnerships.
- Build lead-generating content assets such as challenges, guides, and community-based nurture touchpoints.
- Collaborate with the growth and sales teams to ensure content consistently feeds acquisition goals and reduces sales friction.
- Track UTMs, inbound attribution, and content-to-lead signals to demonstrate funnel contribution.
Analytics & Reporting:
- You track what matters. You act on what you find. You report with clarity.
- Track and report weekly and monthly on reach, engagement rate, follower growth, saves, shares, watch time, and community activity.
- Use platform analytics (Instagram Insights, TikTok Analytics, LinkedIn Analytics) and tools such as Google Analytics to measure performance.
- Translate data into actionable insights and continuously iterate on content strategy, formats, and posting cadence.
- Demonstrate clear content ROI and communicate results to leadership in plain language.
