About the Role
We’re looking for a highly motivated, visually driven Social Media Coordinator with strong design instinct and a proactive, hands-on approach. This is a role for someone who is curious, adaptable, and eager to learn—someone who is just as comfortable planning content as they are capturing it in the moment.
Working closely with the marketing team, you will help plan and shape content that aligns with the broader marketing calendar and business objectives, while remaining nimble enough to respond to what’s happening in real time—new product arrivals, showroom updates, and emerging opportunities.
