Job Description

📋 Job Description:
We’re looking for a full-time entry-level Social Media & Marketing Assistant to join our team. This isn’t just a desk job — you’ll be outside snapping photos, riding along for deliveries, and capturing real content of equipment in action. You don’t need years of experience, but you should have an interest in marketing and social media and be ready to learn. What matters most is being dependable, creative, and not afraid to get your hands dirty while helping tell our story online.

  • Take photos of shop/yard activity for internal newsletters or posts
  • Support community events (schools, fairs, charity events)

📣 Advertising Support

  • Boost posts and track spend on Facebook/Instagram ads
  • Help monitor basic ad performance (reach, clicks)
  • Coordinate giveaways or promos (ex: “Share this post to win a hat”)

Photo & Video

  • Take pictures and short videos of equipment, deliveries, and events
  • Capture real “in the yard” content
  • Capture real "on the job" content
  • Cover local events (fairs, demo days, open houses) with live posts
  • Organize photos and videos so they’re easy to find later

📸 Relevant Skills:

  • Basic photography skills (able to frame, focus, and capture clear photos)
  • Comfortable shooting short video clips for social media
  • Knows how to use a DSLR, mirrorless, or even high-quality smartphone camera
  • Able to do light editing (cropping, color adjustments, trimming video)
  • A creative eye for showcasing equipment, people, and events

Website & Marketing Support

  • Update website photos and banners when promotions change
  • Help with basic marketing tasks (flyers, simple graphics, or giveaways)
  • Track and organize marketing files
  • Update inventory on the website & other subsidiary websites

What We’re Looking For:

  • Entry-level candidate with an interest in marketing and social media
  • Not afraid to be outside, around equipment, and in the action
  • Comfortable with social platforms (posting, reels, stories)
  • Good communication and people skills
  • Organized and able to follow a schedule
  • Basic computer knowledge (Excel, Word, Outlook, Adobe Suite)
  • A creative eye is helpful, but formal experience isn’t required
💰 Pay:
Starting at $20/hour (higher with relevant experience)

🎁 Benefits:

  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Life Insurance
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Paid Time Off
  • Bonus Structure

This is an entry-level job with good benefits and room to grow. If you’re dependable, enjoy social media, and want a hands-on role where you won’t be stuck behind a desk, we’d like to talk to you.
