More about the role:
Burson is looking for a Senior Social Content Creator who is passionate about all things social media and is a visionary leader in social storytelling. The ideal candidate is proactive, strategic, socially-savvy, and detail-oriented - someone who doesn't just follow trends, but creates them. You should be able to react quickly in a fast-paced environment and be truly passionate about social media: what trends are shaping it, what best practice looks like, and how brands and fans are changing the landscape. A deep understanding of internet and pop culture, especially as it relates to Gen Z, is essential.
In this role, you will develop sophisticated and complex social media concepts that move beyond tactics to sustainable campaigns and activations. You will independently package and present social content strategies to both internal and external stakeholders, effectively communicating rationale and impact. You may work across a diverse portfolio of clients - including Novo Nordisk, Supernus, Novartis, Teva, BUBS, ANA, and Spotify, among others - translating complex brand challenges into impactful social narratives.
This role demands a deeply hands-on approach to graphic design and video production, ensuring every piece of content meets the creative vision but also stands out in a crowded social landscape. We need a collaborative and positive team player who can jump in wherever needed, take ideas from concept to execution, and navigate client feedback like a pro - all while keeping a finger firmly on the pulse of trends, culture, and the evolving media and healthcare landscape.

• Lead art direction and copy crafting for comprehensive social campaigns, personally executing visual designs and ensuring consistent brand aesthetics and tone across all creative outputs
• Create rapid response content in collaboration with strategy and creative teams as news, cultural moments, and trends emerge in real time
• Support social listening and insights efforts, tracking culture and trends in real time while balancing ongoing deliverables
• Independently package and present social content strategies to internal and external stakeholders, communicating rationale and impact with confidence
• Independently produce and master a diverse range of social content formats, from concept to final output, including static graphics, short-form video (filming/editing), motion graphics, animations, carousels, and stories
• Demonstrate mastery of the social content production process across media types including static, short-form video, carousels, and stories
• Find creative solutions to social challenges including budget constraints, client feedback, and strategic pivots
• Package completed work as compelling case studies for internal education, new business pitches, and awards submissions
• Develop client trust through strong presentations and effective social strategies
• Mentor and provide direction to Associate Social Creatives, inspiring teammates with creativity, attitude, and work ethic
• Maintain a thorough understanding of each brand's compass and social strategy and how it plays out in day-to-day execution

Experience that contributes to success:

• 5-7+ years of creative experience in social media and content, including 3-5 years in a mentorship, supervisory, or team leadership role
• Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, Digital Media, or a related field with a strong emphasis on visual design and content creation
• Serial social media user who can demonstrate a deep, platform-native understanding of key channels
