Creative Strategist (Social Media)

Ello • San Francisco, CA

1d

About The Position

We’re looking for someone excited to craft a distinctive Ello voice and social strategy rooted in storytelling, emotion, and originality. This means rising above the noise to create work that deepens our brand.

This isn’t a traditional “manage the calendar” role. You’ll be responsible for creating strategy around original, high-quality content that resonates with parents, kids, and educators — content people want to share, save, and talk about.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience creating high-impact social content
• Have run an account that demonstrates exceptional taste, creativity, and originality, and gained over 10k followers.
• Experience with short-form video editing tools.
• Proven ability to take a story from idea → script → shoot → edit → publish (end to end).
• Strong copywriting skills and a natural feel for tone and voice.

Responsibilities

• Experiment across platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, X, LinkedIn) to identify where we can deliver the highest-impact narratives.
• Translate Ello’s mission and breakthroughs into compelling, highly shareable moments.
• Lead end-to-end content production: concepting, scripting, shooting, editing, publishing, and measuring. You will be empowered to create original content of your own design, as well as taking raw assets (photo, video) from partnerships and other parts of the business and transforming them into powerful posts.
• Build a deep understanding of our community — parents, kids, and educators — and create content that connects authentically with them.
• Analyze performance to double down on what resonates, but prioritize depth and value over vanity metrics.
• Managing production from other content creators

Benefits

• Be part of a mission-driven company shaping the future of literacy and education.
• Work alongside a passionate, ambitious, and collaborative team.
• Build something original, bold, and lasting — not just more noise in the feed.
• Competitive salary, generous equity, and great benefits.
