Social Media Lead

Company Description Kreta is a professional networking platform that connects tech creatives and professionals through intentional 1:1 conversations. Each week, members select a Friday time slot, and Kreta matches them with others based on interests, skills, professional background, and availability. The platform facilitates focused 30-minute conversations that help participants build meaningful connections rather than casual contacts. Kreta’s mission is to create a curated networking experience that supports career growth, collaboration, and community within the tech ecosystem.

Day-to-day tasks involve creating social media calendars, drafting and scheduling posts, monitoring performance metrics, and suggesting improvements to increase reach and engagement. The role also includes staying current with social media trends in tech and professional networking to ensure Kreta’s content remains relevant and compelling.
