Calirosa Tequila - a growing alcohol & lifestyle brand - is looking for a talented individual (or team) that can help develop the look, feel and tone of their social media presence, manage posting and engaging with followers, and potentially create or oversee the creation of content needed for the channel.

* YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OF AGE AND BASED IN THE U.S. TO SUBMIT TO THIS PROJECT *

Calirosa Tequila is a growing alcohol and lifestyle brand - founded in part by musician Adam Levine and model Behati Prinsloo Levine - that fuses Mexican spirit with quintessential California cool. They age their 100% blue agave tequila in in California's prized red wine barrels, resulting in uninhibited tequilas with a distinctively smooth taste and a vibrant, rosy glow. And as the brand continues to grow, the team is looking to build out their presence on social media. And that's where you come in... 

The Calirosa team is looking for a talented individual (or team) that can be 10 steps ahead of the latest trends, and serve as a remote Creative Social Media Manager. This Creative Social Media Manager will be responsible for helping to develop the look, feel, tone, and - most importantly - the purpose of Calirosa's various social media channels. The Calirosa team has a detailed set of brand guidelines but they are really looking to establish how their brand shows up on social media. What are they saying, and why are people coming to their channels? How can they better engage their fanbase with organic content, and expand their reach? A successful candidate should be able to come up with purposeful ideas for posts, create or oversee the creation of those assets, write copy for posting, develop and manage a posting schedule, and interact with Calirosa fans, potential fans, and other brand accounts online.

This position will likely be on an hourly basis to start, with the opportunity to expand into a full time position for the right candidate (and more on that below). 

You do not necessarily need to be a creator yourself for this role, but you should be fluent in creative, and have the ability to oversee and manage production workflow of other creators, if you're not making assets yourself. We recognize there are quite a bit of skillsets associated with this role, so we are open to multiple people or teams submitting together, if there's a good fit. For now, the Calirosa brand is most active on Instagram, but there are plans to expand to platforms such as Pinterest and TikTok in the next 6-12 months. Ideal candidates should have their finger on the pulse of what's relevant on those platforms, particularly for this target audience (more on that below and in the Background). 

Interested in throwing your hat in the ring? Here's how this process will work, and the qualities of the ideal candidate: 

APPLICATION PROCESS:

• Apply: Create and submit a detailed visual treatment introducing yourself - and your creative aesthetic - to the Calirosa team, explaining your background as a creator or social media manager, breaking down why you're a great fit for the roll, and creating two sample Instagram posts (these can be In-Feed, Stories, Reels, etc) that reflect your vision for Calirosa's social presence. You will also be asked to submit your proposed hourly rate. 
  • Sample posts do NOT need to include original photo or video content. You are welcome to pull imagery or videos from online, and pair with your own graphic or aesthetic touches. The biggest thing will be showing how you pair engaging visuals with compelling copy, to give a sense of how you would develop content in this role. These are sample posts only, and will NOT be used (or owned) by the brand. 
• Treatment Review: Visual treatments will be evaluated by the Calirosa teams. Based on the response to those treatments, one or more individuals (or teams) may be invited to interview with Calirosa. Please note: Calirosa is under no obligation to interview or hire any candidates via this process.  

WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING FOR: 

• Anyone aged 21 or older is welcome to apply, but you must also be based in the United States. This is a remote position, but it's limited to US applicants only.
• Living in or around a major metropolitan US city (like LA, NY, MIA) is a plus, but not required. 
• You should have at least 1-2 years of social media creation or management experience.
• You should be well versed in the nuances of different social media platforms & posting types (most specifically Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok).
• You should be 10 steps ahead of the coolest trends & culture, specifically in the arenas of art, music, fashion, mixology, cuisine, events & parties.
• You should be comfortable in and around creative; either as a creator yourself, or as someone who oversees content creation.
• You should have strong writing abilities, both in writing compelling post copy, but also in interacting in a sociable (but still professional) way.
• You'll need great organization and time management skills, with the ability to develop and stick to a consistent posting schedule.
• Videography, photography or design background are a plus, but not required.
• Spanish language abilities are a plus, but not required.
