• A portfolio or links to published work are required with every application. Include examples of Instagram carousels or photo albums, short-form video with motion graphics, and thumbnails or social imagery; identify your specific contribution to collaborative work.
• Demonstrated ability to design for Instagram feed and Stories and adapt assets for other social platforms.
• Strong writing, proofreading, and visual research skills.
• An instinct for story structure, image selection, pacing, typography, and the details that make a social post worth stopping for.
• Strong editorial judgment and a willingness to pitch original ideas, test new formats, and improve work through feedback.
• The ability to collaborate across editorial, production, and social teams while owning creative execution from brief through final export.
• Comfort juggling daily output and longer-term projects without sacrificing accuracy, craft, or deadlines.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in editorial, outdoor, hunting, fishing, travel, or sports media.

Responsibilities

• Concept, design, and produce Instagram carousels and photo albums that turn editorial stories, field reporting, and visual assets into clear, compelling narratives.
• Select images, write or refine concise on-card copy with editors and producers, and build layouts that create a strong opening hook and a reason to keep swiping.
• Edit short-form video and create motion graphics, animated text, compositing, and other enhancements for Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and related formats.
• Create thumbnails, cover art, social graphics, and cutdowns; adapt stories and campaigns for Instagram Stories and other platform-specific placements.
• Partner with the social team, editors, photographers, video producers, and commercial collaborators to translate briefs into original, publish-ready creative.
