Murdle
Los Angeles, CAThis is a Part Time Job
We're hiring a creative, trend-aware Social Media Editor to support a bestselling author and puzzle book brand, Murdle.
This is an end-to-end role: you'll pitch, shoot, edit, and post short-form content, primarily for TikTok and Instagram on the @MurdleMysteries account. We have not regularly posted videos, so you would play a major role in developing our style and social presence.
This will be four hours a day, five days a week. You will work directly with the author and his assistant, including filming in Los Feliz once per week. Other than this one-day-a-week, the job will be remote. However, ideally you will work from noon to four, Monday-Friday, so that we can coordinate any necessary posts or meetings.
Responsibilities
• Develop and pitch video concepts based on current trends
• Produce and post 2 short-form videos per week (TikTok / Instagram Reels)
• Handle full workflow: concept - filming - editing - posting
• Monitor/respond to comments for a limited time daily
• Stay current on BookTok / Bookstagram trends
Requirements
• Based in Los Angeles
• Able to travel to Los Feliz weekly to film with the author
• Experience creating short-form video (portfolio or links required!)
• Familiar with BookTok / Bookstagram culture
• Able to independently create videos end-to-end
Salary/Benefits
$35.00 - $40.00 /hour USD
Based on experience
Additional Information
Our business is a small, author-driven brand focused on a murder-mystery book series and puzzle brand, partnering with large publishing companies such as Macmillan, Hachette, Chronicle Books for jigsaw puzzles, and Goliath for board games. We aim to develop a more robust, community-driven social experience to promote our products, including board games, card games, spin-off books, and our website at Murdle.com. While working with these notable companies will be part of the role, you will also play a key role in defining how we communicate with readers and fans online, as we have not maintained a regular social media presence.
