Career Opportunities

Job Title: Social Media Manager
Company: The Professional Pen (TPP)
Location: Remote (U.S.-based preferred)
Status: Contractor / Part-Time

About Us:
The Professional Pen (TPP) is the first Black-owned script consultancy in Hollywood, helping emerging screenwriters go from idea to pitch with clarity, confidence, and community. We serve a B2C audience of aspiring screenwriters (majority newbies) as well as B2B clients in the entertainment industry (networks/streamers/prodcos). Our tone is casual, grounded, straight-shot, no-chaser—equal parts teacher and tough-love coach. If you're into smart storytelling, memes with bite, and using digital strategy to reach creatives, you’ll fit right in.

About the Role:
We’re hiring a Social Media Manager to bring our content strategy to life across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. You’ll manage everything from captions to posting, and also create original weekly content that speaks to our two core audiences:
  1. Aspiring screenwriters who are overwhelmed and need real tools.
  2. Filmmakers and storytellers who care about craft and community.

Key Responsibilities: You won’t be editing our core videos (we already have a video editor), but you will:
  • Write and schedule daily to weekly content across IG, YT, and TT
  • Create 2–3 original pieces of content weekly (memes, trending clips, BTS, etc.)
  • Use edited video content to create platform-specific captions and post copy
  • Ensure all images and clips are high-resolution, brand-consistent, and accessible (with captions/text overlays)
  • Review and report analytics monthly with recommendations for strategy shifts
  • Follow content calendar deadlines and approval workflows
  • Stay on top of trends in screenwriting, filmmaking, and social media culture to keep us current and relevant

Ideal Candidate Has:
  • Experience in film/TV, specifically screenwriting, is a big plus
  • Proven experience managing multi-platform content for a creative brand (IG, TT, YT)
  • Copywriting skills with the ability to write in an authentic, casual, confident tone
  • Strong aesthetic taste and attention to visual quality
  • Light video editing skills (for reels or TikTok)
  • Understanding of audience segmentation and engagement strategies
  • Reliable communication habits and respect for deadlines

Details:
  • Deadline: July 11, 2025 at 5p PT
  • Contract role; estimated 5-10 hrs/week to start
  • Set monthly fee or hourly rate based on experience
  • Must be available for weekly check-ins and content approvals
  • Potential to grow into a larger role with more hours and responsibility
  • Send questions to [email protected]

Next Steps:
  • Selected candidates will be invited to interview
  • Expected start date of on/before August 1, 2025
