Current open positions:
Social Media Manager
The Vintage Twin is a curated vintage and secondhand fashion brand. We’re based in NYC where our two stores are located, and also sell online to a worldwide customer base. We’re looking for a versatile, creative, and driven Social Media Manager who can handle *everything social* and help build and maintain an engaged community around the brand.
Key Responsibilities:
- Conceptualize, shoot, edit, and post photos and videos across Instagram (grid, stories, reels) and TikTok
- Model products and create lifestyle content
- Schedule posts and share spontaneous content to maintain an active, engaging presence
- Respond to comments, DMs, and engage with tagged content
- Repost, like, and interact with relevant user-generated content
- Set up and operate TikTok Shop, and test other (live) shopping apps such as Whatnot
- Establish and manage relationships with a network of influencers and creators in order to generate more content for the brand on their profiles and ours
- Track social media trends and propose fresh content ideas
- Monitor analytics and provide regular performance updates and insights to inform future content and strategy
- Identify additional platforms to pursue, such as Threads, then formulate strategy and execute
- Write captions and on-platform copy that maintain and evolve The Vintage Twin’s brand voice across all platforms
- Collaborate with internal team members on campaigns, launches, and promotions as needed
- Moderate comments and DMs in alignment with brand values, including handling sensitive or negative interactions when needed
- Organize and maintain a library of photo and video assets for ongoing and future use
- Continuously stay informed on new platforms, tools, and features, and proactively apply evolving best practices within the social media landscape
- Take ownership of all social media channels; no task is too small or too big
- There are many moving parts, and success depends on balancing them effectively while reallocating time and attention to the content and channels that are performing best in the moment. Time management and prioritization are key.
Requirements:
- Years of proven experience managing Instagram and TikTok accounts, either professionally or for your personal brand
- Available 30-40+ hours per week
- Based in NYC
- Strong photography, videography, and editing skills
- Comfortable modeling and showcasing clothing on camera
- Creative mindset with excellent aesthetic judgment and attention to detail
- Attention to detail and the ability to follow instructions
- Excellent written communication skills and ability to engage authentically with followers
- Motivated, organized, and able to work independently while also being accountable to a schedule
- Familiarity with social media analytics and scheduling tools
- Passion for vintage fashion, sustainability, and building online communities
This is a hybrid role based in NYC as you will often film and shoot in our stores. Depending on the setup, this will sometimes have to be done before or after operating hours so as not to disturb shoppers. Other work such as editing may be done remotely. We estimate the remote/in-person split to be about 50/50.
What We Offer:
- Competitive pay and benefits
- Opportunity to shape the visual and digital identity of a growing brand
- Work closely with a passionate, fashion-forward team
How to Apply:
Please send your resume and a brief note explaining why you’re perfect for this role to hello@thevintagetwin.com. Feel free to include links to social media accounts you’ve managed or content you’ve created, including your own. If you were referred by a current employee of The Vintage Twin, you should mention that as well. You also must complete the Content Assignment outlined below. Applications without completed submissions will not be considered.
Content Assignment:
This is designed to show us your creative taste, your interpretation and understanding of The Vintage Twin brand, and how you think about content.
Step 1: Create 2 short-form videos (7-30 seconds) that you believe would feel authentic and perform well on @TheVintageTwin on TikTok and Instagram. It’s not about copying the content that’s been done on the accounts, but where you think it should go. They should be Instagram and TikTok-ready.
Step 2: Upload your 2 videos into a Google Drive folder.
-
Set the folder’s sharing settings to: “Anyone with the link can view”
-
Make sure the folder is public and accessible
-
Copy the folder link and include it in your application email
Step 3: After creating your Google Drive folder and sending it with your application email, complete the following:
-
Send Video #1 to our TikTok via DM with the message: “[YOUR NAME] — Video 1”
-
Send Video #2 to our Instagram via DM with the message: “[YOUR NAME] — Video 2”
We will not review your application until Step 3 is complete.
