Fast Horse

Fast Horse is hiring a Senior Social Media Strategist to join our growing team. Our ideal candidate will have at least four years of experience working in social media and a proven history of developing and executing successful campaigns for consumer and B2B brands.

 

We’re searching for someone with a finger on the pulse of culture and a passion for driving brand awareness and engagement through social media. You’ll have the expertise to develop strategy, and to drive day-to-day client work, including managing social programs, copywriting, guiding the creation of social content and reporting results across multiple accounts.

To that end, you must have the ability and desire to work closely with account services, strategy, creative, media relations, influencer, paid media and other disciplines to conceive campaigns and flawlessly bring them to life. Equally important is a natural curiosity, optimistic outlook and ability to communicate with diplomacy.

We are a creative bunch that values diversity and inclusion. There’s no working in silos or fighting for a seat at the table. No competing interests or incentives. Ideas come from everyone. And everything works harder by working together.
