* Maintain agility in a fast-moving environment where timing is everything
* Support processing and tracking of third-party and vendor invoices.
** Bring your VIBE:
*** 1–3 years of experience in social media, digital content, or music/entertainment marketing
* Strong understanding of Tik Tok and short-form video ecosystems, especially how music trends evolve
* Passion for music and familiarity with current artists, genres, and fan communities
* Proven ability to ideate and execute content quickly without losing quality or brand alignment
* Excellent writing skills with an ear for tone, voice, and cultural relevance
* Experience with video editing tools (Cap Cut, Adobe Premiere, etc.) preferred
* Ability to balance reactive content with planned campaigns
** What Makes You Stand Out:
*** You’ve helped break a song, trend, or moment on social
* You instinctively understand what makes fans engage, remix, and share
* You’re fluent in fan culture, stan communities, and creator ecosystems
* You can translate an artist’s identity into content that feels native to each platform
* You move fast, think visually, and stay curious
** Success in This Role Looks Like:
*** Driving viral moments that amplify artist visibility and streaming growth
* Creating content that fans engage with, recreate, and spread organically
* Helping position Capitol Records artists at the center of cultural conversation
* Contributing to measurable growth across social platforms and fan engagement
** Perks Playlist:
