breaking news
• Track and analyze traffic and engagement data to inform what we post and when

• Moderate and manage the on-site Discussions tool, suggesting prompts, analyzing responses, and reporting to
leadership what works and what doesn't

Who You Are
• 2-3 years in social media, ideally at a publication or media company
• Fluency with Canva, a social management platform (e.g., Sprinklr), and analytics tools (e.g., Chartbeat)
• Sharp instinct for platform trends and how to translate them into brand-appropriate content
