- Hours: 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET (with some flexibility based on location)

- Follower Growth – You will be accountable for increasing the follower count across all key social media platforms of the brand, ensuring a steady growth trajectory that aligns with brand awareness and audience-building goals
