  • Attention to detail and commitment to excellence in all aspects of work
  • Strong design skills (preferably experience with graphic design tools like Canva)
  • Strategic thinking and the ability to help clients achieve their goals through social media and content
  • Ability to work both independently and with a team to meet deadlines
