What you will do
Own Social & Community
Lead Barebells Canada's social-first strategy, shaping how the brand shows up across social platforms and treating community as a key brand channel, not just a response function.

Who you areYou are chronically online (in the best way), visually sharp and deeply tuned into how brands show up in culture. You understand what makes people stop scrolling, join a conversation or share something with their friends. You have a natural feel for storytelling, humour and timing, and know how to turn what is happening online into content that connects.
You are creative, organised and comfortable taking the lead, with the confidence to try new ideas and the judgement to know what works for the brand. You enjoy the creative process as much as the finished content, from the first idea to the final post.
What you will need to succeed
1–2+ years of hands-on experience in social media, content creation, community management or a similar marketing role.
Strong knowledge of Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, including platform trends, formats and best practices.
Experience creating and producing social content, with a strong visual eye and confidence appearing on camera when needed.
Excellent communication and organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and collaborate across teams.
Experience in CPG, food and beverage, lifestyle or wellness brands is an advantage, as is working with influencers or content creators.
English–French bilingual skills are preferred but not required.
