About the Role
We’re looking for a creative and execution-focused Social Media Specialist to join our team. This role is ideal for someone who lives and breathes social trends, can shoot and edit video on the fly, and thrives in a fast-paced, high-performance environment where our community sets the standard.
In this role, you’ll create and publish short-form content primarily on Instagram — as well as Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn — to help Side show up as impressively as the elite agents we serve. You’ll manage our brand and executive presence across platforms, identify timely opportunities to engage, and work with both internal stakeholders and our agent partners to bring content ideas to life quickly, creatively, and consistently.
About Our Customers
We serve a highly discerning, relationship-driven customer base—top 1–5% real estate professionals in competitive, high-value markets. Our clients are entrepreneurial, brand-conscious, and deeply connected within their communities. They expect concierge service and value trust, reputation, and personalization. Marketing to this audience requires precision, credibility, and a deep understanding of how to create value through relationships.
Responsibilities
As Side’s Social Media Specialist, you will drive both strategy and execution across both Side’s brand channels and those of our executive team. This isn’t a reactive role.
