About Us:

Ascendant (ascendantbrands.com) is a team of professionals with expertise in managing every aspect of a consumer product business. We acquire segment-leading brands with strong intellectual property assets and reposition them for growth in both direct-to-consumer (Amazon, Shopify) and retail channels.

We currently have six brands under our umbrella, each with its own audience, voice, and digital marketing needs. We're looking for a social media whiz to join our marketing team and help us take our social media and influencer marketing to the next level. This position will report to our Marketing Director and collaborate with our brand management team. We're looking for someone who can develop and execute creative and engaging social media campaigns, build relationships with influencers, and manage our social media accounts across a variety of platforms.

What you'll be doing:

  • Developing social media strategies for our brands, in partnership with our marketing director
  • Creating and curating engaging content, with support from our designer
  • Building and managing our influencer programs
  • Managing our social media content calendar, in partnership with our brand managers and marketing director
  • Engaging with our audience and managing our community
  • Analyzing trends, tracking results and reporting on our social media and influencer marketing performance

What we're looking for:

  • 2+ years of experience in social media marketing
  • Experience with influencer marketing is a must (and hey, if you’ve been on the influencer side, that counts!)
  • Strong understanding of social media best practices and trends
  • Creative and strategic thinking skills
  • Excellent communication and relationship management skills
  • Willingness to travel 3-4 times per year
  • Bonus points if you have experience with video editing, TikTok, YouTube and/or Reddit

Compensation:

  • $45,000+, DOE budgeted compensation range, depending on experience + incentive bonus
  • 10 days paid vacation + 10 paid company days off + 8 paid holidays
  • Discounted health plans, company-paid life insurance and optional dental and vision plans available to all full-time staff.
  • 401(k) plan with company matching
  • Other benefits / rewards: ascendantbrands.com/rewards
  • Remote contributor-supportive culture
  • A collegial work environment with a variety of leaders and peers to learn from

Location: Anywhere in the U.S. or on-site at our offices in northern Utah.

Inclusivity: Ascendant is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to cultivating an inclusive work environment.

Applying: To apply, please submit a resume and a link to a social media account you’re proud of. It can be yours or a company account you’ve managed. Your choice!
