Doing this job remotely
Posting, monitoring and reporting can all be done from a phone and laptop, and the role is commonly remote. Social channels do not close, so evening and weekend monitoring is often expected, especially during launches or when a post draws criticism. Roles built on original photo or video may require access to products, locations or events.
Where it comes from and where it leads
Social media managers usually begin as coordinators, community managers or content creators, sometimes after building their own following. They advance to senior manager and head of social, or broaden into content, brand or communications leadership.
