Associate TikTok Strategist

Podean • Canada, KY

9h • Remote

About The Position

Podean is a leading marketplace agency helping brands accelerate growth across Amazon, Walmart, Target, TikTok Shop, and other digital commerce platforms. We combine strategic expertise, data-driven insights, and creative innovation to deliver measurable business outcomes for our clients.
About Social Commerce Club
We are at the intersection of eCommerce, content, and social media, and we aim to lead this movement with agility, creativity, and measurable impact. Whether it’s TikTok Shops, YouTube Shopping, or another platform that hasn’t even launched yet, our focus is always on turning views into sales.
Our job is not just to make great content or run profitable ads—it’s to merge the two into a powerful, scalable system that grows brands. The future belongs to brands that adapt and thrive on social platforms, and we’re building the bridge to that future.
Mission
Be the strategist’s operating system. Keep work moving, close gaps, and document how we win so the pod can scale.
Your work ensures clarity, momentum, and quality in every campaign — freeing strategists to think and lead while the pod executes with precision and flow.
Within a 90–120 day ramp, you’ll be ready to take partial ownership of campaigns and client communications with confidence.
The Role
As an Associate Strategist, you’re the connective tissue of the pod where clarity meets action. You turn strategy into motion, help maintain our command centers, and ensure every moving part flows smoothly from planning to execution.
You’ll be deeply embedded in the rhythm of the work: running daily operations, anticipating needs before they’re spoken, and documenting the playbook as we go.
Your craft is flow — the ability to keep people, systems, and priorities aligned so that every campaign lands cleanly and every win is repeatable.
This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in structure, loves creating order, and takes pride in making teams look and feel more capable than before.
