Position: Full-TimE, remote.
Red Wine & Blue is a national community of nearly half a million diverse suburban women working together to defeat right-wing extremism, one friend at a time (best explained by this NYT episode of “The Daily”: The Field: Why Suburban Women Changed Their Minds and ‘Blue’ suburban moms are mobilizing to counter conservatives). We are seeking a full-time Social Media Manager to help us create, distribute, engage with, and measure content that reflects our brand values and mobilizes suburban women.

What you’ll do:

- Regularly engage with members of our digital community by responding to comments and encouraging suburban women to take action with Red Wine & Blue
- Spend your day in the trenches of social media (the good, the bad, and the ugly) and report back about what’s going on in the ether
- Monitor online chatter about ongoing events in the political world (or any current event suburban women are talking about) and find ways to get involved in the conversation.
- Conduct research projects as needed to find social media trends related to future content curation
- Analyze the performance of our social media posts and adjust strategy based on the metrics
- Work collaboratively in cross-functional teams (including state teams) to coordinate on social media strategy, targeting, and amplification.
What you’ve got:
- At least 3-5 years of experience leading social media for an organization, institution or corporation of a similar size and a familiarity of all major platforms
- An eye for crafting engaging social media content and the organizational skills to get your ideas into the feed on a deadline
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills–internally and via social media–as well as baseline graphics and video skills
- The willingness to immerse yourself in the day-to-day lives of suburban women by constantly engaging with those who interact with our content
- An understanding of the current political environment and familiarity with the rapid response nature of politics
- Ability to adapt to change in a fast-moving environment and to work under pressure.
- Strong social media skills and a familiarity with using content calendars is a must
- Experience with CRM platforms, such as EveryAction preferred
Salary Range: $55,000 – $65,000 + competitive benefits package covering 75% of employee medical, dental, and vision insurance premiums.

We provide a generous paid time off policy with paid vacation, sick leave, personal days, and at least 10 paid federal holidays, including Juneteenth.
Location: All 42 RWB staff work remotely, running virtual operations nationally and on the ground in four states, so we have a preference for OH, MI, PA, or NC, but we’re not a stickler on that.
