About Get Free

Get Free is a modern day civil rights organization building a youth-led movement to repair past harms, remove ongoing barriers to equality, and realize a future where freedom is for all. Since we launched in late 2023, we’ve won a historic reparations commission in New York, got the DNC to adopt key parts of Our Repair Mandate into the 2024 party platform, and pressured universities to protect Black studies programs in the face of the MAGA regime’s plot to whitewash academia.

Now, we are quickly building out the team and infrastructure of people for our campaigning and organizing through 2028.

About the position

As the social media manager at Get Free, your role will be crucial in executing and growing an innovative and cutting-edge social media program to reach hundreds of thousands of young people across the country to take action to make reparations and reparative policies a political and public priority. You will be responsible for growing and maintaining Get Free's presence on Instagram, Tik Tok, Bluesky, Threads, and Linkedin, testing and distributing messaging, supporting our Discord community of supporters, and experimenting with content strategies to increase our digital footprint and impact.

The Social Media Manager will also be responsible for increasing the organization's online video output and should feel comfortable being in front of the camera and coaching others to record front-facing videos of their own.

This position will report to the Communications Director and work closely with our Digital Director and growing staff team and movement leaders, with a particular focus on empowering & supporting our volunteers to develop video content.

We’re looking for someone who is excited about experimentation, aligned with our values, strategy, and vision, and who wants to apply their deep knowledge of organizational social media strategy to ensure our movement’s reach and impact at a national scale. This role is for someone who is committed to our mission, believes in building political, narrative, and people-power, and has a steadfast desire to win.

Responsibilities

• Ensuring all our social media strategies and tactics are focused on growing our choir of followers, converting and absorbing them into active supporters, and consistently posting engaging content to our channels.

• Diving deep into understanding our repair mandate, theory of change, our tone, brand, and voice, and core messages and beliefs as a movement.

• Contextualizing modern-day inequalities in the context of our nation’s unredressed original sins of slavery, native genocide, and exploitation.

• Independently identifying relevant news stories that connect to Get Free’s mission to turn into content for our social channels

• Managing our social media channels and supporting our volunteer Discord platform for creating, disseminating, and amplifying content and calls to action.

• Drafting and posting rapid response content (such as video, graphic carousels, memes, attention-grabbing tweets), monitoring engagement and growth metrics, and growing a base of online influencers.

• Support our online-to-offline pipeline for new and existing leaders to join Get Free.

Essential Qualifications

• 2+ years relevant experience managing movement social media accounts.

• Proficiency in Canva and Cap Cut…
