They are seeking a Social Media & Content Manager who will take ownership of their TikTok and Instagram presence, develop content strategies, and grow the community in the US market.
Responsibilities
- Build and lead Doonails' US TikTok channel end-to-end: content strategy, posting calendar, community growth, and TikTok Shop. This is your channel to own
- Produce TikTok videos independently as an on-camera talent: trends, tutorials, product demos, Get-Ready-With-Me, and behind-the-scenes content. No director, no extensive setup
- Together with our German Socials team, you will exchange successful formats, bounce creative ideas off each other, and adapt global trends specifically for the US market
- Spot and quickly adopt platform trends, sounds, and formats relevant to the beauty and nails niche on TikTok and Instagram before they peak
- Build and maintain relationships with US creators and micro-influencers for collaborations, cross-promotions, and community growth
- Support TikTok Shop with content and community management, including weekly creator calls and Discord-based community building (Creator House format)
- Track and analyze performance across both channels (views, engagement, follower growth, TikTok Shop sales, Story engagement rate) and continuously optimize your content strategy based on data
Skills
- Proven TikTok track record: You've built a brand or channel on TikTok before. You can show us growth numbers, engagement data, and ideally a brand you took from unknown to notable

- US cultural fluency: You understand US creator culture, humor, trends, and platform mechanics natively. This isn't something we can train from Munich
- Content strategy mindset: You don't just post, you build. You think in formats, series, and platform-native storytelling that compounds over time
- Self-starter, no hand-holding needed: You can hit the ground running without extensive onboarding. You bring your own creative direction, propose your own formats, and don't wait to be briefed
- Beauty or lifestyle background: You've worked for or alongside consumer brands in beauty, wellness, or lifestyle and understand the category and its audience
- Communication: Excellent English skills, written and verbal
