    About Social Media at PromiseStudios

    PromiseStudios houses MAP’s creative engine — film, photography, publishing, fashion, animation, podcasting, and civic storytelling.

    Social media within PromiseStudios is not reactive posting.

    It is strategic narrative sequencing.

    Digital platforms are where:

    • Campaigns launch
    • Communities form
    • Stories circulate
    • Partnerships notice
    • Institutional credibility grows

    We approach social media as a disciplined extension of our creative ecosystem — balancing artistry, analytics, and mission alignment.

    Role Overview

    We are seeking a Creative Director of Social Media & Digital Narrative Strategy to lead content architecture, campaign sequencing, and platform growth across MAP’s digital presence.

    This founding leadership role will:

    • Define platform-specific voice and visual rhythm
    • Develop cross-platform campaign rollouts
    • Translate creative production into digital-native storytelling
    • Align analytics with creative decision-making

    The Director will ensure that every post, reel, carousel, and digital release reflects MAP’s dignity-centered mission while supporting measurable growth.

    This role requires creative authority, strategic thinking, and platform fluency.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Develop and oversee MAP’s social media strategy across platforms
    • Define content cadence and campaign sequencing architecture
    • Collaborate with film, photo, publishing, and podcast teams to translate creative work into digital formats
    • Establish platform-specific tone and engagement standards
    • Oversee visual cohesion and caption discipline
    • Develop audience segmentation and growth strategy
    • Monitor analytics and adjust content direction accordingly
    • Ensure safeguarding and media release compliance across all digital materials
    • Guide content calendar planning and seasonal rollout
    • Maintain timely, professional responsiveness via email and chat in Google Workspace

    Qualifications

    • Background in digital marketing, social media strategy, or creative communications
    • Demonstrated experience leading multi-platform social campaigns
    • Strong understanding of platform algorithms and engagement metrics
    • Ability to integrate brand storytelling with performance optimization
    • Experience managing creative contributors or distributed teams
    • Strong strategic writing and visual literacy

    Preferred Skills

    • Experience in nonprofit or mission-driven digital campaigns
    • Familiarity with youth-centered content strategies
    • Experience launching creative brands or media initiatives
    • Knowledge of analytics dashboards and growth tools
    • Experience aligning social media with fundraising or partnership visibility

    Commitment

    • Founding leadership role
    • Structured engagement (minimum 5–10 hours per week; scalable during major launches)
    • Remote with NYC collaboration as needed
    • 6-month minimum commitment preferred

    What You’ll Build

    • A cohesive digital narrative system across platforms
    • Structured campaign rollouts aligned with creative production
    • Audience growth architecture
    • A disciplined social presence rooted in mission and design excellence

    Social media is not noise.

    It is rhythm.

    Help shape the digital rhythm that carries MAP’s stories forward — clearly, strategically, and with purpose.
