Description:
FantasyPros is seeking a freelance social media coordinator to assist across all social platforms for our company. The role will involve coordinating with our social media manager and the content team to craft social posts in a variety of formats (text, image, video, etc.). The ideal candidate should possess creative energy and be well-versed in the best practices of existing and emerging social networks.
Specifically, the right candidate for this role will have a strong understanding of the ins and outs of fantasy sports, specifically football, and also an ability to connect with our audience in the form of creative, informative and relatable posts across Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and more.
This is a remote, freelance role, and the hourly rate will be based on experience. Candidates should have some flexibility in their available hours, as this role will combine scheduling out a daily schedule of posts along with “live-tweeting” NFL games.
