Maverix Pickleball is looking for an experienced, creative, and highly motivated Social Media Manager to take ownership of our social media presence.
This is not a position for someone who needs to be told what to post each day. We are looking for someone who can operate as a director—someone who can evaluate our brand, develop a strategy, build a content plan, and execute that plan with minimal guidance.
Maverix is a young, rapidly growing pickleball company. Because we are still building our team, this is a unique opportunity to join early, make a meaningful impact, and grow into a leadership position within the company.
WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
* Managing Maverix’s Instagram,
* Developing and executing a clear social media strategy
* Creating and maintaining an organized content calendar
* Generating original content ideas that fit our brand and audience
* Editing short-form videos for Reels, TikTok,
* Editing photos and creating graphics for static posts and advertisements
* Writing captions, selecting hashtags, scheduling posts, and publishing content
* Repurposing existing videos and photos across multiple platforms
* Staying current with trends, platform changes, and successful content within the sports industry
* Reviewing performance data and using it to improve future content
* Taking ownership of projects, meeting deadlines, and communicating progress clearly
* Helping shape the long-term creative direction and voice of the Maverix brand
REQUIREMENTS
* At least three years of professional social media management experience
* Strong working knowledge of Instagram,
* Proven experience growing or improving business social media accounts
* Ability to create a strategy and execute it without constant direction
* Strong short-form video-editing skills
* Ability to edit photos and create professional static graphics
* Experience using tools such as Canva, CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, or similar programs
* Excellent organization and time-management skills
* Strong written English and communication skills
* Creative, trustworthy, accountable, and dependable
* Comfortable receiving feedback and continuously improving your work
THE IDEAL PERSON
You do not simply complete assigned tasks—you notice opportunities and take initiative.
You should be able to look at our social media accounts and tell us what is working, what is not working, and exactly what you would do to improve them. We want someone who brings ideas to the table, follows through on commitments, and takes pride in producing excellent work.
HOURS AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITY
This position will begin at approximately 15 hours per week. As long as the work being produced is valuable to Maverix, we intend to increase both the hours and compensation.
Our ultimate goal is for this person to grow into a full-time, long-term position and eventually oversee the creative direction of our social media department.
We believe strongly in rewarding people who work hard, produce valuable results, and help the company grow. If you take care of Maverix and consistently deliver great work, we will make sure you are taken care of as well.
HOW TO APPLY
Please include the following with your application:
1. A short introduction explaining why you would be a strong fit for Maverix
2. Your resume and portfolio
3. Links to social media accounts you have personally managed
4. Examples of short-form videos and static graphics you have created
5. A description of your exact responsibilities for each account you managed
6. Your desired hourly rate
7. Your current availability
FIRST APPLICATION ASSIGNMENT

4. What would your top three priorities be during your first 30 days?
5. Please provide three specific content ideas you would create for Maverix.
