New Media Manager
Alexi Giannoulias for Chicago Mayor is hiring a New Media Manager to own the campaign's creator, influencer, and podcast strategy. This is the person who makes sure the candidate’s message reaches Chicagoans who get their information from every part of the internet. This is a relationship job as much as a content job. The right candidate already has a phone full of Chicago creators, or knows exactly how to build that list in 30 days. Responsibilities ● Build and manage a working database of Chicago-based creators, influencers, and local accounts, segmented by geography, community, audience size, and issue affinity ● Develop and execute paid and organic creator partnerships, including briefing creators, coordinating content review, and tracking deliverables ● Serve as primary point of contact for partners, managing expectations, timelines, and compliance requirements ● Coordinate and staff creator access to the candidate: content shoots, ride-alongs, event coverage, and rapid-response opportunities ● Identify and engage non-political creators — food, sports, music, comedy, neighborhood, small business — where the campaign can reach voters outside the political conversation ● Pitch and book the candidate on podcasts, video shows, and streaming appearances; coordinate with the Communications team on prep materials and message guidance ● Work with the digital team to clip, package, and distribute appearance content across campaign channels ● Develop relationships with volunteers, neighborhood pages, community Facebook groups, ward-level accounts, Reddit communities, and other local online spaces where Chicago political conversation actually happens ● Monitor local online conversations and respond to moments accordingly Qualifications ● One to three years of experience in social media, influencer marketing, audience development, digital organizing, or content creation; campaign, advocacy, or nonprofit experience strongly preferred ● Demonstrated track record of building and maintaining creator or influencer relationships that produced measurable results ● Deep, current knowledge of the platforms that matter: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Substack, podcasts, and whatever is emerging by the time you read this ● Fluency in Chicago — its neighborhoods, communities, media, sports, and internet culture. You should know which accounts move the city and which just have followers ● Strong writing skills and the ability to pitch persuasively and briefly ● Ability to juggle multiple workstreams under rapid-response, high-pressure conditions ● Comfort with ambiguity and a bias toward action; this is a build-it-yourself role ● Basic video production or editing skills, even at a scrappy level ● Commitment to Democratic and progressive values and to Alexi's campaign vision Pay: From $6,500.00 per month Benefits: Health insurance Work Location: In person
