Junior Social Media Specialist

At RUMOR, social media is an integral part of the solutions we provide for our clients. Our projects range from solving complex problems for high profile companies, to helping small businesses get new products or brands off the ground. We’re seeking a talented and experienced Content Creation Specialist to join our team. Candidates must have in-depth experience with social media content creation and understand its importance and role within successful brand management. You must demonstrate strong conceptual abilities, long and short-term understanding of strategy, and be able to consistently generate creative ideas. All that said, we like to keep a pretty fun, laid back, but hard-working atmosphere here at RUMOR. We are looking for someone who not only specializes in social media, but is a good fit for our team.

This is a full- time, in-person job, with some remote work away from the office for on-site content creation, requiring applicants to be located near Salt Lake City, UT. Interested parties should submit a resume, cover letter, and an optional short self-promotional social media video that tells us a little about who you are and what you would bring to the role (be creative!).
