Kit is an email-first operating system for creators who mean business. We help creators grow and monetize their audience with ease. For coaches, YouTubers, authors, podcasters, and other creatives, there isn't a better marketing hub to rely on to grow audiences, automate email marketing, and sell digital products — all within one platform.

More importantly, there isn't a team more committed to helping creators earn a living. We're on a mission to help creators earn $1 billion using our creator marketing platform. We have always been 100% independent and 100% remote.

We are proud to have built a product that our customers love, and we look for people who have enthusiasm and belief in our mission, vision, and values to join our team. We're also embracing AI thoughtfully — both in how we build and how we hire to ensure our team is adaptable, innovative, and ready for what's next.

 

The role

We’re looking for a Social Media Manager (Hourly Contract Position, 30 to 40 hours per week) to create and post compelling content, and engage with the community across our CEO and Founder, Nathan Barry’s, social media channels. You’ll shape a cohesive cross-platform strategy, with your main focus on building a highly engaged audience on Instagram and identifying low-lift ways to stay active on YouTube Shorts and X.

While this role is focused on Nathan and his content, it’s deeply connected to the mission and values of Kit. This role is perfect for a social-native creator who’s built their own business or personal brand — or helped someone else do it — through social media, and understands the challenges and opportunities of growing an audience online. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves creating, posting, and engaging daily — not just coming up with ideas, but bringing them to life consistently across platforms.

 

Your support system

You’ll report to Chelsea Hahn (Head of Operations for the CEO), and collaborate closely with the Head of Marketing for the CEO. You’ll also partner with Kit’s social media team to strategize how to best leverage Nathan’s personal brand to help grow Kit.

 

What you'll do

• First Week: Immerse yourself in Nathan’s existing content and platforms (YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, X) to understand his tone, audience, and creative style. Review past posts, videos, and engagement data to see what resonates most. Join onboarding conversations with Nathan and the CEO Operations team to align on goals, expectations, and content priorities. Get access to social media tools, brand assets, and the systems that support Nathan’s content workflow.
• First Month: Deliver a full social media audit that includes insights on platform performance, audience trends, and content opportunities. Develop a strategy for consistent, high-impact storytelling across Nathan’s channels. Present a 90-day content plan focused on reach, engagement, and follower growth, with clear metrics for success.
• First Six Months: Establish Nathan as one of the most trusted and engaging voices in the creator economy. Build strong, consistent momentum across his channels through thoughtful content and timely insights. Drive measurable growth in reach, engagement, and audience quality. Collaborate with the Kit team as needed to ensure alignment between Nathan’s personal storytelling and Kit’s broader mission. Launch at least one standout campaign or content series that meaningfully expands Nathan’s audience.
• First Year: Help make Nathan’s personal brand one of the most influential and recognizable in the creator economy. Your work will turn his ideas and experiences into a steady stream of content that educates, inspires, and motivates creators. By the end of the year, Nathan’s channels should show sustained growth in followers and engagement — and his content should be recognized as a leading voice for creators building real businesses online.

Engagement Structure and Deliverables Location

This is a project-based engagement with defined deliverables and milestones.

 

Geographic Considerations:

While Kit operates as a fully remote organization, certain deliverables will require on-location content capture at company events and activities. The majority of these will be based in Boise, Idaho, but occasional travel to other locations may be needed. The contractor will coordinate logistics for on-site content production independently, including travel arrangements when event-based deliverables require physical presence, and will receive reimbursements for all travel-related expenses.

We will give preference to candidates based in Boise, Idaho.

 

Deliverable Timeline Expectations:

Content deliverables follow a production schedule designed to support Nathan's social media strategy. The contractor will manage their own schedule to meet agreed-upon deliverable deadlines and content publication timelines. This engagement also includes attendance at events that may occur during evening or weekend timeframes. The contractor will coordinate their availability around these scheduled content capture opportunities as part of the deliverable requirements outlined in each project scope.

 

Compensation

This is a contract role paying $40 an hour.

Kit is an equal opportunity employer

We value diversity in all of its forms. Research tells us that applicants who are female or non-binary, as well as applicants who are people of color, are less likely to apply for roles they do not feel 100% qualified for. If you think you meet more than 50% of our requirements but fewer than 100% of them, please apply.

We’re imperfect communicators, so think of our job postings as the starting point for discussion rather than proof that you shouldn’t apply.
