THE ROLE

Behindthechair.com is seeking a creative, detail-oriented, and driven Social Media Associate to own the day-to-day organic voice of our supporting brand accounts. You'll plan, create, publish, and grow content across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook for @thebtcshow, @oneshothairawards, @btcuniversity, and @arcscissors — turning our shows, awards, education, and products into scroll-stopping storytelling. You'll also support our Social Media Director on the flagship @behindthechair_com master account as needed, and coordinate cross-promotion and collaborations between all of our accounts to keep the BTC brand family working as one. This role is perfect for someone who lives and breathes social media, stays ahead of digital trends, and has a genuine passion for the professional hair industry.

Success here goes beyond posting:

REPORTING & COLLABORATION

This role reports to the Sr. Manager of Operations & The BTC Show, with overall creative direction and vision set by our CEO and Founder, Mary Rector. You'll work closely with Mary on strategy and partner daily across our Social, Advertising, and Editorial teams to deliver cohesive, on-brand work. You'll partner closely with our Social Media Director — who owns the flagship @behindthechair_com account — supporting him on the master account and coordinating collaborations across all BTC accounts. On paid campaigns, you own organic content and asset coordination; the Paid Media Manager owns paid strategy, budget, and optimization.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Own and run the @thebtcshow, @oneshothairawards, @btcuniversity, and @arcscissors accounts — planning, creating, and scheduling organic content across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. Support the Social Media Director on the flagship @behindthechair_com master account as needed. Coordinate cross-promotion and collaborations between all BTC accounts, communicating with the Social Media Director to keep messaging aligned. Partner with the Editorial team on copy and captions, ensuring written content reflects BTC's brand voice and editorial standards before it publishes. Collaborate with internal teams to develop visual and written content aligned with each brand's guidelines and voice. Monitor social channels daily for engagement opportunities, trends, and community interaction. Respond to comments, DMs, and mentions promptly and professionally to grow and nurture our community. Track and analyze key performance metrics and generate regular performance reports. Stay current on emerging social trends, tools, formats, and best practices. Support influencer and brand partnership campaigns. Coordinate creative assets for paid social campaigns and track performance in partnership with the Paid Media Manager. Contribute ideas to content planning and campaign brainstorming sessions.
