    About Creative People


    Creative People is a human-first recruiting agency connecting high-growth companies with exceptional talent across creative, marketing, product, and design. We’re relationship-driven, deeply connected to the industries we serve, and committed to making recruiting feel more human.


    We’re looking for a Social Media & Content Specialist to help bring the Creative People brand to life across our social channels (Instagram and LinkedIn). This is a hands-on role for someone who can spot a strong story, turn it into compelling content, and confidently take it from idea to execution.


    Schedule: Part-time contract (approx. 20 hrs/week)

    In-office: Hybrid, at least 1 day per week (required) in Williamsburg

    Rate: $40/hr


    What You’ll Do

    Reporting to the Director of Brand + Growth Marketing, you’ll work closely together to bring ideas to life while collaborating with recruiters and internal subject-matter experts across Creative People.

    • Edit engaging short-form videos for Instagram and LinkedIn
    • Design polished graphics and carousels using Canva, Figma, or similar tools
    • Film social content, interviews, and behind-the-scenes moments
    • Turn events, placements, open roles, and company updates into compelling social content
    • Collaborate on brainstorming and developing original content ideas
    • Write clear, conversational social copy that reflects the Creative People voice
    • Stay tapped into industry conversations, cultural moments, and social trends across marketing, design, branding, hiring, and careers
    • Occasionally appear on camera on behalf of Creative People
    • Capture photo and video content at select events and activations
    • Help manage the content calendar and move projects from concept through publishing
    • Review content performance and use insights to shape future ideas


    Weekly Deliverables (Example)

    • 2 short-form videos/week (edited + exported + ready to post)
    • 3-4 LinkedIn posts/week (text + creative asset support as needed)
    • 1–2 IG assets/week (stories, carousels, or graphics)
    • 1 weekly content planning sync + monthly performance recap


    Required Skills & Qualifications

    • Strong fluency across IG and LinkedIn 
    • Strong editing skills in CapCut + proficiency in Canva
    • Strong creative instincts: hooks, pacing, trend adaptation, storytelling.
    • Reliable, proactive communicator who can manage deadlines and move fast.
    • Comfortable working in-office at least 1 day/week and collaborating closely with a small team.


    Why work here?

    You’ll be part of a small team that’s fun, collaborative, and high-standard, and you’ll get direct mentorship. We’ll work side-by-side on in-office days to film, edit, and ship content quickly.


    Why you’ll love it:

    • A true creative playground: your ideas won’t get buried. If it’s good, we’ll try it!
    • Fast feedback loops: we move quickly, test often, and don’t overcomplicate
    • Fun team energy: we like each other, we collaborate, and we build together
    • Portfolio-worthy work: you’ll ship a lot across IG and LinkedIn
