What are the responsibilities and job description for the Social Media Manager and Content Creator position at Boem Boutique?
Founder Megan Orrell opened Boem in 2008. From day one our goal was to offer attainable fashion and give women a comfortable, inclusive place to shop. We want our customers to feel like our friends and our store to feel like you are stepping into our home. Sixteen years later, we still stick to these values. Boem’s flagship brick and mortar store is located in the heart of Charlotte’s SouthPark neighborhood. Our e-commerce website launched in 2015, we opened a second location South End’s Atherton Mill in 2020, and our third location opened in Blakeney in 2022.
