In this role, you’ll create social-first content, engage our large and active social media following, and test/measure the impact of posts, tweets, and campaigns. You’ll also work closely with Task & Purpose’s marketing team and editors to drive the big ideas that propelled this platform to 1.5M unique monthly visitors and 3.4M monthly pageviews.

This is a great opportunity to make an impact and work with a team devoted to giving voice to the new generation of American veterans.

Qualifications

  • Strong interest in military/veterans news and affairs; informed on current events and topics related to military and veterans space.
  • Experience with social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest) a must.
  • Experience with design programs (Adobe) preferred.
