Why Absolute Studios?
We’re a full-service creative marketing agency that believes great work starts with a great team. For 20 years, we’ve been helping businesses build brands with real personality because it’s not only what you say, it’s how you say it, where you say it, and to whom you say it. We call it Creative that Clicks, and it shows up in everything we touch.
Our team is made up of strategists, writers, designers, videographers, and yes, social media obsessives who genuinely love the craft. If you want to do work that’s actually seen, actually felt, and actually moves the needle for a diverse roster of clients, you’ll fit right in here.
Position Overview
The Social Media Manager is the voice behind our clients’ brands on social, and that’s not a responsibility we take lightly. You’ll build and execute strategies, create and publish content, own community engagement, and report on what’s working across a variety of client accounts. No two days look the same, and that’s by design.
This role sits at the intersection of strategy and creativity. You’ll work alongside our content, design, video, and client teams to produce social that actually stands out in a crowded feed.
Why We Value This Position
Social media is often the first place a person encounters a brand. That first impression matters, and the person in this role shapes it. We’re not looking for someone to schedule posts and call it a day. We want someone who thinks strategically, creates intentionally, and is always looking for a smarter, more creative way to connect with an audience.
