Social Media Assistant

• Role: Social Media Assistant
• Industry: Marketing
• Candidate location: Remote position open to candidates from any country in Latin America.

Experience: Must have +2 years of experience in social media management or content creation, with strong hands-on expertise in Canva and prior experience creating content for US-based clients.

About the Firm

Our client is a boutique social media agency serving a growing roster of US-based clients. The agency builds and manages branded content across multiple client accounts — from carousels and Stories to short-form video — and is known for a high-touch, organized approach to content production. As the agency scales, this role offers direct mentorship from the agency owner and a real path to growing responsibility over time.

About the Job

This is a role supporting a boutique social media agency. You'll help keep client content organized, on schedule, and on-brand across multiple accounts. The role focuses on organization and content creation in Canva, with growing responsibility over time, including eventual access to Meta Business Suite for posting and scheduling.

You won't be generating strategy or ideas in the early months — this is an execution and organization-first role that follows clear direction and grows into more ownership as trust builds. The right person is reliable, detail-oriented, and comfortable following an established system.

Responsibilities

Content Organization

• Organize and maintain the agency's Dropbox so content is easy to find for anyone on the team
• Maintain and update the content calendar (Google Sheets) for each client account
• Email the monthly content calendar to clients
• Keep Canva projects and templates organized and easy to navigate

Content Creation

• Tools used: Canva (primary), CapCut, Edits
• Content strategy, themes, and guidelines are set by the agency owner — this role executes against that direction rather than creating it
• Build carousel posts and graphics for client accounts using existing brand templates and direction
• Create story content for client accounts
• Create monthly flyers and other recurring graphic assets
• Edit and caption short-form video content for social posts (simple talking-head style edits, captions, titles — no advanced video production required)

Captions and Copy

• Write simple captions for posts — strong writing skills are not required; AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude) can be used to draft and polish copy
• Follow established tone and direction provided by the agency owner rather than generating new copy independently

Project Management

• Track and manage tasks using the agency's project management tool (currently Notion)
• Help bring more structure and consistency to how the team uses Notion day to day

Platform Management (after onboarding period)

• Gain access to Meta Business Suite to support scheduling and posting once trust is established
• Use a content scheduling platform as needed

You're the ideal fit if you:

• Have strong written and spoken English, with excellent attention to detail
• Bring +2 years of experience in a similar social media/content support role
• Have strong working experience with Canva — this is the single most important tool for this role
• Have experience working with US-based clients
• Have experience with Meta Business Suite (Facebook/Instagram management)
• Are comfortable working inside a project management tool (Notion, Monday.com, Trello, or similar)
• Are comfortable using AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude to draft and polish captions and copy
• Are familiar with Google Workspace tools (Google Sheets, Google Drive, Gmail)
• Are comfortable using Dropbox to organize and locate files
• Are reliable and available during a fixed daily work block — this role does not offer flexible or self-managed hours

Technical Requirements

• Candidates must have a laptop or desktop computer with 8GB RAM, Core i5 or above
• Integrated or external webcam for virtual meetings
• Stable internet connection

What's Offered

• Monthly salary USD $1,500–$1,700, depending on experience
• Full-time position, 8 hours per day
• Schedule: Monday to Friday, 9:30 AM–5:30 PM EST (fixed block)
• 100% Remote
• Weekends Off
• 12 US Federal Holidays
• PTO: 10 days per year
• Potential path to growth as the agency scales and client volume increases
