Part-Time Social Media Rockstar – Job Description

ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY

Would you like to help ESL students around the world through creative and engaging social media posts? Espresso English is looking for someone to take our social media channels from “meh” to “marvelous” 🙂 This is a flexible, part-time position that you can do from anywhere with an internet connection!

EspressoEnglish.net teaches English as a Second Language through online blog posts, videos, e-books, and courses. More than 100,000 students are learning from Espresso English lessons and seeing great improvement in their language skills – resulting in more confidence, more job and travel opportunities, and changed lives.

Now we’d love to reach even more students through social media – and that’s where the Social Media Rockstar comes in!

In this role, you’ll create interesting daily posts for the EspressoEnglish social media channels, engage with students in the comments, and develop an evolving social media strategy for continued growth and engagement.

DAY-TO-DAY WORK

Here’s what you’ll be doing in this role:

  • Creating interesting and engaging posts for the EspressoEnglish Facebook and Twitter channels (possibly adding Instagram in the future)
  • Developing our social media strategy by drawing inspiration from other successful social media pages in the ESL niche and monitoring posts’ analytics to see what’s popular and working well
  • Engaging with students in the comments – answering questions, giving encouragement, thanking them for commenting, etc.

This flexible part-time job is a great complement to an existing ESL teaching job.
