About the Role
We are seeking a creative, fashion-driven, and results-oriented Social Media Manager to lead the social media presence and growth of CALI1850, Lazy Sunday, and Khaki & Blue.

Content Creation & Execution
· Plan and manage Instagram posts, Reels, Stories, TikTok content, and other relevant social channels.
· Create engaging short-form content using available product, model, lifestyle, and behind-the-scenes assets.
· Coordinate with designers on new products, collections, seasonal stories, and key items.
· Write strong, brand-appropriate captions and social copy.
· Coordinate product shoots and social content shoots when necessary.
· Maintain a consistent posting schedule across all brands.
Community & Influencer Management
· Monitor comments, direct messages, tags, mentions, and customer engagement.
· Build relationships with followers and strengthen each brand's online community.
· Identify and coordinate appropriate influencers, creators, and micro-influencers.

Growth & Paid Social
· Develop strategies to increase qualified followers, engagement, website traffic, and conversion.
· Work with the E-Commerce team on Instagram/Facebook advertising, boosted posts, and campaign initiatives.
· Test creative concepts, audiences, formats, and messaging.
· Identify high-performing organic content that can be expanded through paid promotion.
Analytics & Reporting
· Track weekly and monthly KPIs, including follower growth, reach and impressions, engagement rate, Reels/video views, website traffic, conversion and sales when measurable, and top-performing products and content.
· Prepare a concise weekly Social Media Performance Report.
· Recommend specific actions based on performance data rather than simply reporting numbers.
Qualifications
· Experience: 3-5+ years of hands-on social media experience, preferably in fashion, apparel, beauty, lifestyle, or consumer brands.
· Platforms: Strong knowledge of Instagram, TikTok, Facebook/Meta, and emerging social platforms.
· Audience & trends: Strong understanding of fashion trends and young consumer behavior.
