Elliott Acres Farm is looking for a creative and dependable Social Media Manager to support us during the 2026 Christmas tree season. This is a 2-month contract role running from approximately late October through mid-December. The primary focus will be developing creative content ideas and fully executing them from concept through filming, editing, and posting across Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. We're looking for someone who can take ownership of our seasonal social media presence and consistently create content that is engaging, timely, authentic, and aligned with the Elliott Acres Farm brand. _ Responsibilities Own the content creation process from start to finish — developing original content ideas, planning how to bring them to life, filming, editing, writing captions, and publishing the final content. Proactively identify creative content opportunities and relevant trends throughout the Christmas tree season rather than relying on pre-developed ideas or detailed direction. Develop and maintain a seasonal content calendar that supports consistent posting and pre-determined on-site filming dates. Film, edit, and post short-form video content for Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Capture the Christmas trees, behind-the-scenes moments, team members, customers, and the overall Christmas tree lot experience. Write engaging captions that reflect the warm, family-oriented personality of Elliott Acres Farm. Promote important updates such as opening information, events, tree availability, seasonal activities, and other announcements. Stay current on social media trends and identify opportunities to adapt relevant trends to the Elliott Acres Farm brand. Help build local awareness, audience engagement, and excitement around the farm throughout the season. _ On-Site Filming There will be several on-site filming days throughout the season, that can be scheduled based on your availability and the needs of the farm. Availability is flexible for most filming days; however, November 18 and November 21 are required on-site dates for this role. Additional content creation and editing can be completed remotely. _ The Ideal Candidate Has a proven track record of creating social media content that generates meaningful online engagement, including views, comments, shares, saves, audience growth, or other measurable results. Can provide examples of social media accounts, campaigns, Reels, TikToks, or other content they have personally created and managed. Has experience with tools such as CapCut or similar video-editing tools. Is highly creative and comfortable independently generating content ideas rather than waiting for direction. Has experience creating short-form social media content. Is comfortable filming and editing Reels, TikToks, and similar video content. Has a strong understanding of what drives engagement across Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Has a good eye for visual storytelling and knows how to turn everyday moments into interesting content. Understands current social media trends and how to use them in a way that still feels authentic to the brand. Is organized, dependable, proactive, and comfortable working independently. _ Compensation Contract rate to be determined based on experience and agreed scope of work Application Question(s): Are you available for on-site filming on November 18 and November 21? Are you available for additional on-site filming days between late October and mid-December, scheduled in advance based on mutual availability? Are you comfortable with the workload required to create and post one unique video per day for a minimum of four consecutive weeks? Please share at least one link to another social media account or examples of short-form video content you have personally created and managed. Do you have access to your own equipment and software needed to independently perform this role, including a camera or high-quality smartphone, microphones/audio equipment, and video editing tools?
