• You will also support the rest of the social media team with the agency clients. Requests include copywriting, organizing client content assets, and setting up paid social media audiences/campaign structures.
• You may also manage several publisher's promotional-focused social media profiles. This means reviewing and responding to comments and ensuring daily content (through manual posting or automated feed implementation).
