Reporting the news is only half the battle — social media producers actually get that news into our audience’s hands. They produce social media content and social media journalism across a variety of platforms. Their work involves reading, summarizing and writing content as well as designing graphics and posts.
Responsibilities include:
-
Produce and publish posts on the Emerald’s Twitter, when needed, with proper grammar.
-
Manage likes, comments and direct messages on platforms and send any messages to the social media editor for a response.
-
Work closely with the social media editor for media campaigns or to promote events.
-
Attend weekly all-staff meetings and desk meetings.
