Senior Manager, Social Media & Content Strategy - RootOne
About RootOne
RootOne is an innovative, rapidly growing initiative that maximizes the number of North American teens
participating in immersive Israel travel experiences and maximizes the life-long impact that those experiences have on the teens themselves. RootOne does so by reducing the cost of participation for teens, and by elevating and diversifying Israel experiences to make them more accessible and more impactful to a wider audience of Jewish teens. At scale, this experience can radically transform the trajectory of North American Jewry. RootOne is powered by The Marcus Foundation and incubated at The Jewish Education Project.
Position Overview
Are you passionate about creating community, telling compelling stories and driving engagement across new and existing social media platforms? We’re seeking a dynamic, creative and experienced Senior Manager of Social Media and Content strategy. You’ll be our lead storyteller and play a critical role in defining our brand voice and amplifying our messaging across various platforms. This newly created role is one of both strategy and execution. The primary goals are to expand the diversity of
the audiences we reach and dramatically grow our followership and engagement. To-date, our largest effort has been on Instagram, but you’ll leverage your deep knowledge of social platforms to decide how and where we should expand.
You’ll be expected to develop a highly sophisticated understanding of our different audiences – parents, teens, alumni and donors – to ensure that what we say, to whom, when and where is contextually relevant. You’ll build and manage a calendar that showcases rich forms of content from alumni stories, footage from our Israel trips, fun tips and tricks, data-driven insights and so much more. You’ll develop our content strategy and standards in accordance with our brand guidelines and manage exciting campaigns to drive both awareness of our brand and registrations for our trips.
Reporting to the Senior Managing Director of Marketing & Strategic Growth, you’ll be a leader in the Marketing department, who will collaborate closely with other team members to ensure cohesion
across efforts and achieve results greater than what we could each do alone. You will also be a trusted thought partner who will drive awareness and adoption of best-in-class social management tools and help select and manage design resources to meet your production timelines. Lastly, RootOne is an inherently collaborative organization so you can expect to work cross-functionally with many other teams. Our organizational goals are ambitious, and you will thrive off of working with others to get there.
This role is ideally suited for an entrepreneurially minded, self-starter who values radical candor and
transparency. The ideal candidate will be collaborative in nature and greatly value the input of others but take great pride in being autonomously accountable for results.
