  • Manage Birch Agency social media profiles, monitor engagement, respond to comments and messages, and share insights on what is working
  • Research trends and similar staffing and education brands to recommend fresh content ideas
  • Help maintain a content calendar so posts go out consistently
  • Assist with other marketing projects as needed, such as email campaigns, flyers, and website updates

  • Familiarity with LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook and how organizations use them
  • Strong writing and proofreading skills, with the ability to write clear, engaging blog posts
  • Experience with video editing (CapCut, Adobe Premiere, iMovie, or similar) and comfortable creating content; filming experience is a bonus, but not required
  • Basic design skills; experience with Canva or similar tools preferred, but not required
  • Creativity and an eye for consistent, professional branding
  • Ability to manage your time and work independently in a remote environment
  • Ability to communicate in a professional manner with the Birch Agency team

  • Opportunity to manage a video content campaign, from creative ideas through the final edit
