We’re looking for a Head of Social Media to build and lead Hungry Minds’ social media presence. This is a strategic, hands-on role for someone who can develop a clear social media strategy, turn it into an actionable plan, and build a repeatable process for testing, learning, and scaling what works.
We’re looking for someone who has built and implemented a social media strategy, can demonstrate tangible results, and is equally comfortable setting direction and getting involved in execution.
Key Responsibilities

- Build a content system: Establish content pillars, formats, channel priorities, and a structured content calendar that supports consistent, high-quality execution.
- Drive audience growth: Develop and test initiatives to increase organic reach, grow relevant audiences, and strengthen brand awareness across platforms.
- Lead experimentation: Test content formats, creative approaches, collaborations, and emerging platforms. Analyze results and turn successful experiments into repeatable processes.
- Oversee content production: Work with designers, photographers, videographers, and external creators to brief, coordinate, and deliver content that meets the brand’s creative standards.
- Build an engaged community: Develop meaningful relationships with our audience through conversations, community management, user-generated content, and relevant interactions.
- Manage partnerships: Identify and coordinate influencer, creator, and brand partnership opportunities that support social media growth.
- Measure performance: Define relevant KPIs, monitor channel performance, and translate data into actionable recommendations for improving content and results.
- Collaborate across teams: Work closely with creative, product, and marketing teams to ensure social media supports broader company priorities and brand development.
- Establish efficient workflows: Build processes for planning, production, publishing, experimentation, and reporting that can scale with the business.
- Report on results: Communicate performance, key learnings, priorities, and resource needs to leadership.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience developing and implementing social media strategies, with tangible results you can demonstrate.
- A track record of growing brand presence, organic reach, and audience engagement across platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
- Strong strategic thinking combined with a willingness to execute, test ideas, and get hands-on when needed.
- Experience translating business and brand objectives into content strategies, creative briefs, and practical execution plans.
- Strong storytelling skills and an excellent eye for visual quality, creative consistency, and brand communication.
- A data-driven mindset, with the ability to interpret performance metrics, identify patterns, and make informed decisions.
- Experience coordinating content production and collaborating with creative teams, freelancers, agencies, or other external partners.
- Understanding of community building and how to create genuine audience engagement beyond publishing content.
- Experience with influencer marketing, creator collaborations, or brand partnerships.
- Strong project management and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and own a content calendar independently.
- Excellent written communication skills in English.
- An entrepreneurial, ownership-driven mindset and the ability to work effectively in a small, fast-moving team.
Nice to Have
- Experience in e-commerce, direct-to-consumer (DTC), publishing, lifestyle, consumer products, or edutainment.
- Experience marketing physical products and connecting social media activity to commercial outcomes.
- Familiarity with paid social fundamentals, including boosting content, audience targeting, and collaboration with paid media teams.
- Experience building a personal brand or developing a founder-led social media presence.
- Experience establishing social media workflows and scaling content operations from an early stage.
