Take a handful of client accounts, figure out what each one actually needs, and execute a content calendar
- reels, carousels, stories, and captions
- that builds an engaging presence and supports each client's goals.
As you learn the accounts, you'll take on more direct ownership of creative strategy and results. Contractor | Remote | Arizona-based candidates preferred Phantom Labs is a growth studio in Gilbert, Arizona, working hands-on with ecommerce brands and local service businesses across email, social, paid ads, SEO, websites, and everything in between. We need someone who can build an engaging social media content calendar and execute it across several client accounts
- each with its own voice, audience, and goals.
This role is remote. We lean toward Arizona-based candidates, but the right person elsewhere is worth the flexibility. If you're local, expect to occasionally join a content shoot. What you'll be doing This is a hands-on seat. You'll touch nearly every step of the content lifecycle from raw footage and a content idea to a published post across a handful of accounts, each of which needs something different from you. Scheduling and publishing content across social platforms, adapting format and specs for each one Editing short-form video using raw footage provided by the brand
- trimming, adding audio, captions, on-screen text, and a cover that earns the click Creating carousels, static posts, and Pinterest pins in Canva (or similar) using a combination of client assets, stock images, and original design work Writing captions and platform copy in each brand's voice, from Instagram captions to TikTok hooks to Pinterest pin descriptions Posting natively to platforms as needed (e.
g., story posts with links, adding audio to carousels) Maintaining the content calendar with deadlines, approvals, and revision notes Researching trending content, audio, and formats, and keeping a pulse on what's actually resonating with each client's audience, not just what's trending everywhere else Monitoring comments, DMs, and mentions across platforms, responding where it fits the brand voice, and flagging anything bigger for the client Supporting influencer and creator partnerships where clients use them by coordinating deliverables, usage rights, and posting timelines Tracking performance metrics (views, saves, engagement) using native platform insights, and keeping an eye on what's working Organizing and archiving raw footage and finished assets in Google Drive so nothing gets lost and everything's easy for the team to find Coordinating and supporting content shoots, with in-person attendance if you're local Collaborating with the internal team on approvals and creative direction This list flexes depending on the week and the account. What doesn't flex is the standard: whatever goes out under a client's name should look like someone who actually cared made it. You won't do all of this perfectly on day one, and we don't expect you to. What we're looking for is someone who's willing to get better at this list every month. Who we're looking for At least 3 years of hands-on experience creating and publishing social content professionally. More importantly, you: Stay organized and catch details other people miss Write well enough to pick up a brand voice quickly Figure things out instead of getting stuck Don't need an industry expert to hand you every answer Come to us with questions after you've already taken a swing at the answer yourself Lean on AI for research and drafting support, not as your content pipeline Want more responsibility and are willing to earn it We'd rather hire someone slightly underqualified with good instincts than someone perfectly qualified who needs constant direction. If the idea of figuring things out on your own sounds exciting rather than terrifying, you'll like it here. Non-negotiables You genuinely love social media. Chronically online? That's good news for us. You should be on top of what's currently resonating on social, and know how to translate that into content that actually fits our clients' channels. You have real experience, not just enthusiasm. You should already know what it's like to work off a calendar, hit a publish deadline, take feedback, quickly pivot, and be accountable for what goes out under a client's name. We'll teach you our accounts. We shouldn't have to teach you the basics of social media for businesses. You have a good eye for visuals. Creative design and storytelling come naturally to you, and you can tell the difference between work that's thoughtfully crafted and work that's just quickly generated. You are equally comfortable with creating graphics as you are editing short-form video, and know how to adapt visual direction for each unique brand. You have the bandwidth to show up and execute. We're planning on 10-20 hours a week. You will have the flexibility to use that time however works for you, minus scheduled calls and any shoots we've locked in. Keeping other clients is fine, as long as this work never slides. A problem-solving streak. None of us is an expert in every client's industry. What we expect is that you dig into what's already there (past content, performance data, client materials) and take a swing at an answer yourself before coming to us with a question. How we'd like to structure this This is an ongoing part-time contractor role. No set end date, invoiced monthly, roughly 10-20 hours a week. Use your own equipment, set your own hours around standing meetings and agreed shoots, and handle your own taxes as an independent contractor. Tools you'll use Sprout Social
