About the role:

We are seeking a detail-oriented, highly organized, and articulate Marketing & Administrative Assistant to lead day-to-day administrative operations, lead communication & management, and brand partner coordination. In this role, you will take ownership of daily execution tasks, including responding to high-volume Instagram DMs from leads, maintaining regular email newsletters, repurposing core content across social platforms, and managing back-end invoicing and onboarding calls for brand partners.

This role is ideal for a confident, self-sufficient candidate who can follow established operational systems seamlessly and showcase the company on live calls with corporate brand representatives.

  • Manage and publish regular email newsletters to keep the student and lead audience engaged.
  • Repurpose existing long-form and short-form content from TikTok and Instagram into assets for LinkedIn, Substack, and other platforms.
  • Conduct onboarding calls with new partner brands, explain creator setup terms, and present program details professionally.
  • Issue monthly invoices to partner brands, track recurring payments, and follow up on outstanding balances.
  • Maintain accurate back-end records and tracking systems for active female creators and brand partner accounts.
  • Perform general administrative and operational tasks using social platforms and CRM tools like GoHighLevel.

Who are we looking for?

  • 2–4+ years of experience in a Marketing, Client Success, or Social Media Assistant role.

  • Proficiency in Canva for design and video editing capabilities.
  • Experience managing multichannel communication (emails, DMs, calls, etc.).
  • Previous experience planning and creating newsletters.
  • Previous experience in a sales/client-facing role is a plus.
