What Is Employee Growth Rate & Why Is It Important?

Babylist is seeking a Social Media Manager. You’ll lead the strategy and end-to-end execution of several of our social media channels, building a strong presence that is the best representation of our brand while delivering measurable engagement and growth.

As our Social Media Manager you’ll get to…

• Constantly show off your creativity. Every day brings a fresh challenge to inspire users in new ways, with no two weeks the same.
• Launch new, great ideas quickly (we’re not bogged down in layers of management).
• Be on the front lines of making a positive impact on expecting parents’ lives.
• Work from anywhere!

The ideal candidate is curious, driven, results-oriented, and has experience with end-to-end social media management, as well as identifying and working with influencers and creators.

What You’ll Do

• You’ll define and implement a clear, strategic vision for Babylist’s social media (with emphasis on Instagram and Facebook) to educate, inform, and entertain our target audiences.
• You’ll propel social media follower growth, engagement, website traffic, and overall brand awareness.
• You’ll be hands-on, executing the strategy by owning the content calendar: curating, writing captions, coordinating production with the design team, and otherwise managing, scheduling, and publishing all content.
• You’ll identify the right influencers and UGC that equally serves our users and business goals.
• You’ll coordinate cross-functionally including with our partnerships, customer service, production/design, merchandising, and more.
• You’ll identify areas of opportunity and brainstorm campaigns and giveaways to up-level our social media.
• You’ll listen to our community to constantly innovate and evolve our content.
• You’ll monitor, measure, and report on performance analytics, and adjust strategy to optimize results.

• You’re a passionate storyteller who can captivate and engage an audience.
• You’ve successfully led social media content for a consumer brand.
• You’ve managed a stable of influencers/creators/brand ambassadors and understand the demands and benefits of working with freelancers.
• You are constantly seeking ways to engage new audiences and are always up-to-date on what’s happening in social media.
• You value quality but you’re not paralyzed by perfection. You can launch new, creative ideas quickly and iterate constantly using data.
• You have a “go viral” mentality and know-how to maximize content for sharing and engagement.
• You navigate confidently through changing priorities and directions and can operate successfully with minimal direction.
• You have a “no task too small” attitude and can roll up your sleeves to get the job done when needed.

What You’ve Done

• A minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience in managing B2C social media channel(s) with 500K+ followers
• Experience in working with social content creators and influencers.
• Experience evaluating social media analytics and adapting strategy and tactics
• Managed and optimized a social media marketing budget.
• Generated visual/graphic content for social media/web (Photoshop, Figma, or equivalent).

• Used data and social analytics to develop and defend your strategic content decisions and experiments.
• You’ve demonstrated exceptional organizational, multitasking, and teamwork skills.
