Social Media Content VA — Pinterest, Instagram &
We're a long-running sympathy gift brand (24+ years, national press coverage) looking for a reliable, detail-oriented Social Media VA to manage our Pinterest, Instagram, and
Responsibilities
Pinterest
1. Schedule 5 fresh pins per day, spaced throughout the day (not batch-posted)
2. Write Pinterest-optimized titles and descriptions using basic Pinterest SEO
3. Organize pins into the right boards and keep boards consistent and well-maintained
Research relevant keywords and seasonal Pinterest trends for our niche
Instagram &
1. Post once daily to each platform, adapted appropriately for the platform (not just copy-pasted between the two)
2. Write captions in our brand voice (see note below)
Content research & strategy
1. Review three years of our past
2. Propose and maintain a content calendar so posting stays consistent and organized, not reactive
3. Track which pins/posts perform best and provide simple, regular reporting (a spreadsheet is fine)
A note on brand voice
We write about grief and loss with honesty, not toxic positivity — our approach acknowledges what people are going through rather than trying to "fix" it with generic uplifting language. Comfort with, and sensitivity to, this kind of content matters more here than in a typical social media role. We'll share brand voice examples during onboarding, but if breezy, hype-driven marketing copy is your default style, this may not be the right fit.
Requirements:
--Experience managing Pinterest, Instagram, and
--Understanding of Pinterest SEO and keyword research
--Comfortable researching and repurposing existing written content, not just creating from a blank page
--Excellent written English
--Strong attention to detail and consistency
--Ability to work independently and stick to a posting schedule without close supervision
--Experience with a scheduling tool (Tailwind, Later, Meta Business Suite, or similar) is a plus
Trial Period:
The first 3–4 weeks are a paid trial with an approval step: instead of posting live, you'll log each draft — pin, caption, or description — in a shared Google Sheet ("Content Review Tracker") for review before it publishes. This lets us catch anything off-brand-voice early, before it's public. We'll track hours with TimeProof and give direct feedback quickly rather than letting small issues become patterns. Once we're both comfortable with how things are going, we'll shift you to posting directly on the agreed schedule, with lighter, spot-check review going forward. Our goal is to have a long term, reliable VA who understands our business and treats it like their own.
