Who this fits
You’ll suit a hands-on, founder-facing role where you own content from planning through publishing and optimization, rather than managing client accounts. The engagement is full-time and structured as an independent-contractor position. The listing describes the location as remote in South Africa, while its benefits section also refers to an onsite role in Tampa, so that arrangement needs clarification.
From the employer
About Huzzle
At Huzzle, we connect exceptional talent with top opportunities at leading companies across the UK, US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Our clients include startups, digital agencies, and tech platforms in industries such as SaaS, MarTech, FinTech, and EdTech. Unlike an outsourcing agency, we place you directly with a client where you’re hired in-house as a valued member of their team.
About the Company
Our client is a fast-growing performance-driven DTC growth agency focused on helping eCommerce brands scale through high-performance marketing and creative strategies. The founder is actively building a personal brand to drive inbound demand, authority, and audience growth across multiple platforms.
Job Summary
We’re looking for a highly creative and execution-focused Social-First Content Strategist to manage and grow the founder’s personal brand across LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Instagram Reels, TikTok, and email newsletters.
This is not a client account management role. You’ll work directly with the founder to plan, produce, edit, distribute, and optimize content that drives audience growth and business visibility. You will own the content engine end-to-end, from content calendars and scripting to posting, analytics, and community engagement.
If you live and breathe short-form content, understand founder-led brands, and know how to turn conversations into engaging social content, this role is for you.
Role Type: Full-time

- Edit short-form video content using CapCut, Edits, or similar tools
- Coordinate with freelance editors for long-form YouTube production
- Write and distribute weekly newsletters through platforms like Beehiiv, ConvertKit, or Substack
- Schedule and publish content across all social channels
- Optimize thumbnails, captions, hooks, titles, and metadata for engagement and reach
- Monitor content performance and iterate based on analytics and trends
- Engage with comments and DMs on behalf of the founder when appropriate
- Utilize AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT for ideation, repurposing, and workflow efficiency
- Help improve and maintain AI-assisted content systems and workflows
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience managing content or social media for a founder, creator, agency, or operator-led brand
- Strong understanding of short-form content trends across TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and X
- Excellent writing skills for LinkedIn posts, Twitter/X threads, and newsletters
- Hands-on short-form editing experience using CapCut, Edits, or similar software
- Comfortable using AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT daily
- Highly organized and self-managed with strong execution ability
- Familiarity with DTC, agency, creator economy, or operator-led content ecosystems
- Experience growing a creator/founder audience is highly preferred
- Basic understanding of content analytics and platform performance metrics
- Experience helping a creator or founder surpass 10K YouTube subscribers or 50K+ followers on a platform
- Newsletter growth and management experience
- Thumbnail design skills in Figma or Photoshop
