Social Strategist

Are you naturally curious? Are you equal parts logic and creativity? Do you find immeasurable satisfaction in finding patterns and connecting the dots? If you said yes to these questions and have a passion for social media, then you might be a perfect fit for our Social Strategist role.

At Likeable, Social Strategists own the strategic development of content, from compiling insights to setting strategy to pulling and analyzing data. The ideal person has a strong sense of the social media landscape and knows how to bring brand objectives to life. Flexibility and the ability to think independently are key.
