ABOUT YOU
Our ideal candidate believes the strongest brands today are built on social. They operate with both a big-picture and day-to-day mindset, seamlessly managing large-scale campaigns while jumping on timely cultural moments with ease. They’re tapped into the world around them, with a sharp sense of when and how to respond in a way that adds value, not noise. They have a clear perspective on what makes great social content and can articulate it with confidence. They think beyond just making content, they make content that performs — constantly digging into what’s working (and why) across formats and platforms. Naturally curious and quick to adapt, they bring a deep love of film, pop culture, and storytelling to everything they create.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Content Strategy & Voice: Own the overarching content strategy across all social platforms, including but not limited to Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, X/Twitter, and YouTube, ensuring a consistent and compelling brand voice tailored to each channel.
  • Creative Ideation & Experimentation: Lead the development of social-first concepts — balancing brand storytelling with timely, reactive posts that tap into online trends, cultural moments, and film history.
  • Content Calendar Management: Maintain and optimize an integrated social calendar that balances evergreen content with timely campaigns tied to brand tentpoles, announcements, and key initiatives.
  • Campaign Planning: Lead the development of social campaigns from ideation through execution, ensuring they support key business goals while growing our audience and engagement.
  • Content Creation: Lead the creation of original social content — from on-site capture to video production and editing, to developing repeatable content franchises that showcase Tribeca’s distinct brand point of view.
  • Visual Identity & Aesthetic: Own and evolve Tribeca’s visual identity across platforms to ensure all social content feels cohesive, premium, and on-brand, in partnership with the Design Lead.
  • Trend Monitoring: Stay on the pulse of the latest social trends, platform updates, and competitor content — turning insights into timely content or strategic recommendations. 
  • Influencer & Creator Marketing: Identify and collaborate with emerging voices, cultural tastemakers, and celebrity talent to extend Tribeca’s reach and relevance with authentic, on-brand content.
  • Live Event Coverage: Develop comprehensive social coverage plans for the Festival and key events throughout the year, while attending in-person to capture and share real-time, engaging content.
  • Cross-Departmental Collaboration: Partner with internal teams to translate company initiatives — like press coverage, client partnerships, and mentorship programs — into compelling social content that reinforces the brand’s narrative and values.
  • People Management: Manage and mentor the Social Media Coordinator by providing guidance and overseeing their day-to-day responsibilities; oversee freelance photographers and social producers during events.

REQUIREMENTS
  • 5+ years’ experience in social media and content creation/strategy (preferably in-house at an entertainment company or at a creative agency)
  • Experience creating visual assets on Premiere, Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Canva, and/or other similar platforms
  • Experience with third-party social media publishing, listening, and analytics tools (Sprout Social, Later, etc.)
  • Excellent copywriting skills and strong editorial judgment
  • Superior organizational skills, focus, and attention to detail 
  • Effective communicator adept at leveraging collaboration tools (Slack, Asana)
