We believe our differences are our strength. So we push for inclusion, challenge convention and bring in new perspectives, to inspire new ideas.

Overview

Razorfish has an immediate need for a freelance Social Media Content Creator to start ASAP and work on a 2 month project for a CPG brand. Freelancers will be considered for contract extension as well as conversion to full-time based on performance and budget.

We’re looking for a freelance Social Media Content Creator who can trend spot, concept and shoot TikTok-fidelity creator videos for a CPG brand - including on-phone editing. This role will also be responsible for occasional community management and content handling/uploading into our social CMS tool (Sprout social) and post natively.

As a Social Content Creator, you will be crafting social-first content that resonates with diverse audiences and breaks through feeds across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and X.

You will work alongside social strategists, community managers and a creative director to mine trending hashtags, cultural moments and community responses - and generate content that places the brand into the conversation in relevant, engaging and timely ways.

If you have a deep understanding of social platforms, a knack for crafting trend-forward content, and the creativity to push boundaries while staying true to the brand’s voice - then this role is for you!

Responsibilities

  • Trend Spotting & Ideation: Stay ahead of social trends and fintech topics, researching best-in-class examples, competitor content, and platform-native techniques. Translate these insights into actionable ideas for the client’s brands.
  • Content Development: Collaborate with the creative, social, and marketing teams to produce thumb-stopping content, prioritizing short-form video for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Stories.
  • Pre-Production & Storyboarding: Create storyboards, shot lists, and pre-production materials to ensure alignment with brand objectives.
  • Video Creation & Editing: Capture, edit, and produce original video content. Contribute to all phases of production, including filming, editing, color correction, and sound design.
  • Creative Execution: Define and develop branded style templates for social media assets, ensuring a cohesive look across all platforms.
  • On-Camera Hosting: Be comfortable stepping in front of the camera as a brand personality, leading interactive or trend-based content with energy and enthusiasm.
  • Innovative Thinking: Drive out-of-the-box ideas to keep the content fresh, relatable, and shareable, focusing on fintech innovation and user value.

Qualifications

  • Content Expertise: Proven experience in photography, videography, and editing, with a strong understanding of visual storytelling.
  • Platform Savvy: In-depth knowledge of TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube content strategies and styles, with a focus on short-form video. You are someone who lives on the For You Page and loves creating content that engages, entertains, and inspires.
  • Creative Tools Mastery: Expertise in editing tools (e.g., Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, CapCut) and familiarity with production equipment (e.g., ring lights, tripods, backdrops).
  • Visual Mindset: Strong understanding of composition, lighting, angles, and other creative fundamentals.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills to clearly articulate creative direction and workflows.
  • Fintech Knowledge: Familiarity with fintech products, trends, and consumer behaviors is a plus, enabling content that connects with the client’s audience.
  • Time Management: Ability to juggle multiple tasks, meet tight deadlines, and adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment.
  • Innovative Spirit: A passion for creating boundary-pushing, trend-setting content that resonates with today’s digital audience.

Requirements

  • 1-3 years of experience working in social marketing in a creator or publishing role for a well-known brand or within an agency, as a guide
  • Expert understanding of all major social platforms, their formats and their features - especially TikTok and Instagram
  • Proven experience making social-first content and video
  • Experience publishing content flawlessly and managing complex content calendars
  • Ability to create post copy that is SEO optimized and will grab people’s attention in the feeds
  • Ability to use insights and data to inform content planning, content mix and post timing
  • Strong video editing skills including expertise in Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro and CapCut
  • Strong graphic design skills including expertise in Adobe Creative Suite
