The Doing Co.

The Position

We're looking for a genuinely creative Social Media VA who lives and breathes short-form video, to join a fast growing Australian e-commerce brand. This is a role for someone who can take raw phone footage and turn it into scroll-stopping reels, build statics that convert, and bring their own ideas to the table rather than waiting to be told what to make.

This is a role like no other. You get to:

•

Work remotely from the comfort of your home.

•

Own the creative output of a growing brand, from reels and statics through to email campaigns.

•

Work directly with the business owner, who wants your ideas and will back them.

•

Build the content engine for a business heading into its biggest growth period yet.

If you're a creative who is sick of being handed a brief and wants to actually shape the work, we want to hear from you!
