Content Planning & Calendar Ownership
- Own the planning and execution of the organic social calendar across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Content should be specific to each channel.
- Build weekly and monthly content calendars aligned with product launches, retail moments, and campaign priorities
- Translate product science (ex: nano-hydroxyapatite or 5% potassium nitrate) into digestible, scroll-stopping TikTok education without sounding clinical.
- Ensure consistent posting cadence tied to key business initiatives (new launches, partnerships, limited editions)
- Optimize captions and creative for platform-specific best practices (TikTok vs Reels vs Shorts)
- Schedule and publish content across platforms, ensuring accuracy in tagging, links, and formatting
- Proactively identify gaps in storytelling and propose new content opportunities
Creative Support
- Edit social assets using Canva (stories, carousels, simple motion graphics, cover images)
- Absorb and repurpose UGC and creator content for organic use
- Collaborate with internal creative and influencer teams to ensure assets are optimized for feed
- Maintain a library of approved social templates and formats
Community Cultivation & Brand Voice
- Reactive: Respond to every comment and DM with wit and brand-aligned personality.

- Define and execute Boka’s social voice across platforms (premium, approachable, educational, culturally relevant)
- Respond to comments and DMs in a timely, thoughtful, and brand-aligned tone
- Engage proactively in relevant conversations to position Boka within culture
- Identify recurring questions, feedback, and sentiment trends and share insights with internal teams

IRL Brand Experiences

The "Host" Energy

Creative Swiss Army Knife

Experience
- 4–6 years in social media management, preferably for a beauty or wellness brand with a cult following.
Personal TikTok or IG Following
- You have a personal TikTok or IG following where you’ve experimented with content.
Boka User
