About The Position

About Corkcicle At Corkcicle, we believe style and function should never be mutually exclusive. We create products that make every sip better while inspiring people to celebrate the moments that matter. From product launches and partnerships to everyday adventures, our brand is built around experiences worth sharing. We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just manage social media—they help shape the story people want to be part of. Position Overview Corkcicle is seeking a creative, technically skilled, and outgoing Social Media Manager to lead the strategy, execution, and growth of our organic social media presence. This is a highly visible role for someone who combines the instincts of a content creator with the mindset of a strategic marketer. You will own Corkcicle’s organic social channels end-to-end—from strategy and content planning to publishing, reporting, optimization, and community engagement. You’ll be responsible for translating our brand strategy, product stories, and seasonal moments into content that only Corkcicle could create. This role is built on partnership. You’ll work side-by-side with our Senior Brand Marketing Designer, who develops our designed social assets. Together, you’ll operate as a creative team—collaborating on concepts, campaigns, and storytelling from ideation through execution—not as a requester working through a creative queue. We’re looking for someone who lives and breathes social media, is naturally curious about emerging platforms, AI tools, and creator trends, and is passionate about continuously educating the team on what’s changing and how Corkcicle should evolve. You’ll know the difference between chasing trends and creating content that feels authentic to our brand.
