    Social Media Manager for Nonprofit Promoting Migrants & Refugees

    Social Media Manager for Nonprofit Promoting Migrants & Refugees

    Volunteer | Remote | 5 hours per week

    Reports to: Executive Director

    Works closely with: Storytelling Director, Graphic Designer, Marketing & Communications team

    Who We Are

    At Creshendo, we believe that everyone deserves a chance to belong, rebuild, and rise. We co-create solutions with displaced communities—always listening, collaborating, and centering lived experiences. Fueled by integrity, empathy, and curiosity, we're building innovative and inclusive programs that reimagine what's possible for displaced people everywhere. If you're excited to challenge the status quo and help transform lives, you'll feel at home here.

    Why This Role Matters

    Creshendo is launching a dedicated Storytelling Instagram focused on human-centered narratives. The work is inspired by long-form storytelling formats like Humans of New York, but grounded in Creshendo’s values around dignity, agency, and ethical representation.

    The Social Media Strategist will help shape how stories are presented online, translating interviews and long-form narratives into thoughtful, platform-appropriate content. This role is for someone who cares deeply about how stories are shared, not just how they perform.

    What You’ll Be Doing

    • Develop a content strategy for Creshendo’s Storytelling Instagram
    • Collaborate with the Storytelling Director and Graphic Designer to plan posts across formats, including text, image, video, audio, and animation
    • Advise on pacing, tone, and narrative consistency across posts
    • Help ensure stories are shared in a way that is respectful, contextualized, and non-exploitative
    • Coordinate lightly with the Marketing and Communications team to stay aligned with brand guidelines

    Who This Role Is For

    You might be a great fit if you:

    • Have experience with Instagram or social storytelling, professionally or in volunteer roles
    • Have strong editorial instincts and are comfortable working with sensitive material
    • Are more interested in narrative depth than trend-chasing
    • Work thoughtfully and collaboratively across teams
    • Respect and prioritize ethical storytelling principles

    We work with a G.Y.S.T. mindset: action over ego, clarity over chaos, and progress over perfection. If you lead with intention and follow through, you’ll fit right in.

    What You’ll Gain

    • Experience shaping a human-centered storytelling platform from the ground up
    • A portfolio of ethical, narrative-driven social media work
    • Collaboration with a thoughtful, mission-driven creative team
    • Deeper exposure to storytelling, ethics, and digital narrative strategy

    How to Apply

    Send a short note to hr@creshendo.org with:

    • A few lines on why this role excites you and your resume
    • Any relevant portfolio links or social handles
    • Your time zone and general availability

    We’re open to early-career candidates and creatives from nontraditional backgrounds.
