This team is based in NYC (some team members are located elsewhere within the USA). It is comprised of welcoming, action-oriented creatives, who value hard work, creativity, kindness, and passion - as well as getting things done while having fun doing them.

The Social Media Coordinator is a role where you will be the lynchpin of our PR/ Digital team as you learn, grow, and become a social media master alongside our Digital Strategists and Content Creators. You will support our digital team in creating compelling copy, designing and scheduling posts, developing and analyzing reports, and conducting social media listening, channel engagement, and community management. Additionally, we hope that you'll be an aspiring content creator, with basic photography and graphic design skills to help our Creative Content team shine. And, as you support us, we will teach you everything you'll ever need to know about the wild world of social media marketing, influencer relations, and content creation. You must be open to (and excited about!) working in the travel industry, pay exquisite attention to detail, pride yourself in your work, practice accountability daily, under promise and overdeliver, and be passionate about everything that social media entails. We'll take it from there.
Applicants to this position should have at least 6 months of social media marketing experience (internships TOTALLY count) to be considered. If you've worked in an agency, that's even better!
