Social Media Manager
The Rochester Red Wings are looking for a Social Media Manager who understands that great content is only part of the equation — the real power comes in knowing how platforms work, what counts, and how to build meaningful, long-term audience engagement.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role responsible for leading our digital presence across platforms — combining strategic planning with creative execution, data-informed thinking, and a deep understanding of what fuels platform algorithms and fan behavior.
What You’ll Do:
• Lead the development and execution of a content calendar across TikTok, Instagram, Threads, X (Twitter), Facebook, and YouTube
• Create platform-native content that aligns with our promotions, ticketing pushes, merchandise drops, and storytelling goals
• Monitor and respond to real-time trends, audience signals, and algorithm shifts to adjust content formats and publishing cadence
• Ensure all content is optimized based on how each platform prioritizes visibility (completion rate, saves, shares, engagement rate, etc.)
• Collaborate with video editors, designers, and department leads to shape a unified digital voice for the Red Wings
• Track performance across all channels and provide actionable insights to guide future strategy
Who You Are:
• A content strategist and creator in one — equally comfortable building a plan and producing a Reel
• Deeply familiar with the ranking signals and mechanics behind each platform’s algorithm (e.g., watch time, interaction types, SEO)
• Capable of balancing long-term brand-building with short-term performance goals
• Passionate about sports, community, and building authentic digital relationships
• A skilled writer who understands brand tone, brevity, and timing
Required Qualifications:
• 1-2 years of experience managing social media accounts for a brand, team, or entertainment property preferred
• Advanced knowledge of content performance drivers and platform algorithm behavior
• Proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop
• Ability to create short-form video, graphic assets, and copy for different audiences
• Comfortable working nights, weekends, and game days
• Advance understanding of baseball and baseball content.
Compensation:
This is a full-time, in-person salaried position with a pay range of $60,405–$70,000 , commensurate with experience and qualifications. In addition to base salary, this position includes a comprehensive benefits package. The role reflects the fast-paced, event-driven nature of working in professional sports — including nights, weekends, and game days — and requires a high level of ownership, creativity, and execution.

If you’re obsessed with content — not just creating it, but understanding why it works and how it spreads — this is your opportunity to lead the digital voice of one of Minor League Baseball’s most historic organizations.
