Note: Depending on our content needs, you will be traveling on our tours at least 2 times per year to capture photos and video. You would schedule your posts for while you’re away and focus only on content creation and building our community in real life.
You will spend each day engaging with our community on socials and starting conversations and adding value to our community spaces.

Driving sales, staying focused on goals and tracking progress are important elements to this position and will be apart of your routine. Regular meetings and reports on what is working and where there is opportunity for change will be your responsibility to share with the team on a regular basis.
