BACKGROUND
Marketing & Mobilization (M&M) is an international team that is tasked with building the IRC’s profile and brand, supporting the growth of private revenue from deeper donor engagement and partnerships, and influencing our target audiences. The team is responsible for all of IRC's brand, communications, creative and content, and digital engagement efforts.
Digital Engagement (part of Marketing & Mobilization) leads efforts to increase IRC’s access to priority online audiences, attracting new supporters, and sharing a coordinated digital supporter experience. These elements are designed with the strategy of inspiring audiences to give more, do more, and stay longer with the IRC. Digital professionals include communications specialists, content creators, digital campaigners, and analysts. This department comprises a team of social media and web strategists and works across all functions in M&M. They deliver to the US, UK, Sweden, Germany, Brussels, South Korea and other global markets.
Job Overview:
As a new member of the IRC's global social media team (within the Global Digital Engagement team), the Social Media Content Creator will produce short-form, straight-to-social videos and multimedia content for the IRC’s largest market that will grow the organization’s brand online, engage a loyal following, and ultimately help inspire audiences to give to or take deeper action with the IRC.
The Social Media Content Creator is a new role that will grow our social media channels, with a particular focus on TikTok and Instagram channels. The position will live within the IRC’s Digital Engagement team but will work with multiple collaborators—across markets, M&M teams and External Relations departments—and building content that can live across platforms.
The ideal candidate lives on TikTok, Twitter/X, and Instagram (especially Instagram Reels) and has a deep understanding of what makes content perform—while staying true to the international Digital Engagement strategy aligned with the IRC’s core mission and values. They will be able to leverage our client-centered storytelling and communications to illustrate the organization's work in impactful, innovative ways and influence new audiences into becoming supporters.
They will have experience editing social video, creating graphics, and copy writing for social. They will have their fingers on the pulse when it comes to trends. And they will understand what types of content audiences find deeply engaging and shareable. They will also have an understanding of social analytics, both in terms of tracking metrics and quickly pivoting strategy or tactics based on data, as part of a "test, learn and optimize" environment.
