VaynerMedia - 373 Park Avenue South, Floor 9, New York, NY 10016
Community &#38; Content Coordinator
Location: New York, NY
Location: New York, NY Type: Full Time Min. Experience: Mid Level
The Community &#38; Content Coordinator works hand-in-hand with the Account Executive and serves as their more analytics and community oriented counterpart.
Who are you?
Creative, comforted by the numbers, and centered in an unwillingness to maintain the status quo.  We look for folks that are “good at the internet”.
The task at hand:
You will be assessing and solving complex brand challenges through a community and content lens relying on a sixth sense (and data) to encourage maximum engagement
As an ardent protector of our methodology and ethos, you will constantly be called upon to give your ideas on what works, what doesn’t and why
We’ll expect you to think like the brand, eat like the brand, and speak like the brand with a level of respect and dedication that is typically only found within a client organization
Invest in popular culture and digital spaces to bring seemingly unrelated content ideas and concepts to bear (walking the walk is incredibly important to us)
Translating an understanding of, and respect for, good user experience into innovative content from ideation to creation to assessment
Act as a mentor, teacher and/or sounding board for the community managers and multi disciplinary team surrounding you
The Ideal Candidate has:
A Bachelor’s degree and 2-4 years of interactive experience working on digital / social strategies + campaigns, including some client-facing experience
A deep love and respect for communities and the power that can be housed within them supplemented by a commitment to listen and adapt as they change
An even temperament that will allow you to think clearly and communicate clearly in times when swift action (or the diffusing of potential issues) is imperative
An innate curiosity and desire to determine how something works and then be driven to improve upon the original concept
The ability to effectively collaborate with multidisciplinary project teams to enable all participants to feel equally invested in strategies and executions and keep everyone in the know and in a position to succeed
A sparkling personality that will mesh well with the existing VaynerMedia family (we love smart people with a dash of quirkiness and humor)
An insatiable curiosity and knowledge about all things social, web, and mobile
The ability to write concisely and with a strong voice, without typo or delay with general editorial sensibilities
An interest and comfort level in standing in front of a client or a room full of peers and giving their opinion or a presentation
The uncanny ability to see opportunities and solutions in the face of a challenge
An interest in math, data and analytics (if you were the one asleep in math class, we have other roles that might be of more interest to you)
