• Location: Remote (If you’re near Portland, we’d love to have you visit / work out of our office on occasion!)
• Manager: Carolyn Cesario, Co-Founder & Marketing Director

You’ll be responsible for:

• Managing the Ground Up Instagram. This includes replying to all DM’s and comments, posting to stories, communicating with influencers, and creating content.
• Managing the Ground Up TikTok. This includes replying to all messages and comments, posting to the account, communicating with influencers, and creating content.

• Create photo and video content for us to share on social media and via email, including:
• Reels
• Classic product content
• Seasonal flavor content
• Easy recipes
