Social Media Manager

Strategic Digital Performance

At Olomana Loomis ISC, social media isn’t just content — it’s storytelling with purpose. We’re looking for a Social Media Manager who understands how to blend creativity, analytics, and cultural relevance to create work that resonates and performs.

The ideal candidate knows how to craft a brand’s voice across platforms, spot emerging trends before they peak, and build authentic communities that move people. If you’re equal parts strategist, creator, and analyst — and you love the fast pace of agency life — we’d love to meet you.

Personality, Work Experience & Skills

We are looking for you if you are:

• A Strategic Thinker – You develop platform-specific strategies that align with business objectives, and you can interpret data to inform decisions and guide content performance.
• Performance-Driven – You know how to measure and optimize social media impact using tools like Meta Business Suite, Google Analytics, and platform-specific insights.
• Digitally Fluent – You understand the relationship between social, paid media, SEO, and web performance. You don’t work in silos—you connect the dots.
• Culturally Grounded – You bring sensitivity and insight to local context, especially in Hawai‘i. You know that effective storytelling starts with deep listening and respect.
• Collaborative by Nature – You enjoy working with creatives, analysts, and strategists. You give and receive feedback to raise the bar.
• Resourceful and Bold – You experiment, iterate, and act. You’re not afraid to pitch new ideas—and you’re equally ready to prove their worth.
