Social Strategy Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

Storyteller Overland is seeking a Social & Narrative Marketing Manager who owns our organic storytelling across social, blog, email, and community. The role operates with an owner’s mindset, managing content across every owned channel while driving the master marketing calendar that aligns launches, campaigns, and evergreen content in lockstep across the business. This is a highly autonomous, strategy‑through‑execution focused role that uses AI as a core part of the workflow to accelerate ideas, generate higher quality content, and maintain a balanced content pipeline.

• Own STO’s social media strategy and day‑to‑day execution across Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, X, and emerging platforms.
• Plan, create, and manage a consistent content and posting cadence that reflects the STO brand voice.
• Own the blog and editorial calendar, producing inspirational, product, practical, and community content.
• Own STO’s email/newsletter content in partnership with cross‑functional teams.
• Build and own the master marketing calendar, aligning product launches, campaigns, events, PR moments, and content drops across the business.
• Translate the master marketing calendar into channel‑specific content calendars for social, email, and blog.
• Partner cross‑functionally with product, PR, events, and sales to confirm launch timing and messaging before any content is released.
• Proactively flag calendar conflicts, gaps, or bottlenecks and propose solutions.
• Source, brief, and manage photo/video needs for content, working with internal creative talent and external vendors when applicable.
• Build and manage a steady pipeline of authentic, community‑sourced content (owner stories, vehicles, trips, etc.).
• Identify and develop new storytelling formats (video series, community spotlights, behind‑the‑build content, etc.).
• Serve as a guardian of the STO brand voice across every piece of owned content.
• Partner with the PR & Influencer team to ensure content, social, and earned media reinforce the same narrative.
• Coordinate timing across paid, earned, and owned efforts so they reinforce rather than compete with each other.
• Build and own a content/social performance dashboard—engagement, growth, and community sentiment.
• Report regularly to the CMO on content and calendar performance, providing insights rather than just metrics.
• Use AI to generate, iterate, and scale content ideas, captions, and calendar planning.
• Keep stakeholders and leadership updated on what’s live, upcoming, and needed from them.
• Contribute to the overall success of the Storyteller Galaxy by collaborating, cooperating, and fostering camaraderie with team members.
• Address additional initiatives and responsibilities as needed to support business priorities and team success.
