Social Lead, Community & Culture

We're looking for a Social Lead, Community & Culture to help manage and grow Tapstitch's organic social presence across Instagram, Tik Tok, You Tube, and emerging channels.

This is a hands‑on role for someone who lives and breathes internet culture, understands what makes content perform, is excited by the idea of growing a community, and wants to be deeply involved in building a brand from the ground up. You won't just be posting content, you'll be helping shape what Tapstitch looks, feels, and sounds like online.

You’ll work closely with the Head of Content (day‑to‑day), as well as influencer, creative, and growth teams to concept, execute, and iterate on content that speaks directly to clothing brands, creators, and designers. From quick‑turn trend videos to structured series and product storytelling, you’ll play a key role in turning ideas into content that drives both engagement and conversion.

You’ll be the voice of Tapstitch across social channels, engaging with the community in a meaningful way. You won’t just be posting content. You’ll be helping define our voice, build a community around creators and clothing brands, and turn content into a real growth lever for the business.
