Content Creator & Social Media Coordinator (Contract Position)

About Courtney Thomas Creative

Courtney Thomas Creative partners with businesses to create strategic, engaging social media that helps them grow. We don’t believe in posting just to post—we create content with purpose, backed by strategy and designed to build real connections.

We’re looking for someone local to Birmingham who is creative, dependable, eager to learn, and excited to grow alongside a small business.

Position Overview

This is a part-time independent contractor position designed to support content creation and social media execution across multiple clients.

You’ll help bring social media strategies to life through content shoots, video editing, Canva design, scheduling, and organization. As the business grows, this role has a clear path to increased responsibility and higher monthly compensation.

Initial Monthly Compensation

$650/month (flat contractor fee)

Project-based rather than hourly.

Expected workload is approximately 8–12 hours per month once training is complete.

Responsibilities

  • Attend local client content shoots

  • Capture high-quality photo and video content using an iPhone

  • Edit short-form videos

  • Create graphics in Canva using established brand guidelines

  • Schedule social media content

  • Organize content libraries and files

  • Assist with monthly analytics reports

  • Follow documented workflows and SOPs

  • Meet deadlines consistently

  • Communicate proactively when questions arise

Qualifications

  • Lives in the Birmingham area

  • Reliable transportation

  • Strong attention to detail

  • Creative eye for social media

  • Comfortable filming on an iPhone

  • Experience with Canva

  • Comfortable learning new software

  • Organized and dependable

  • Positive attitude and willingness to receive feedback

  • Experience with CapCut, Meta Business Suite, Later, or similar scheduling platforms is a plus but not required.

What Success Looks Like

The ideal person is someone who enjoys creating content, takes ownership of assigned tasks, communicates well, and wants to grow professionally. You’ll receive training, documented processes, and ongoing feedback to help you succeed.

Growth Opportunity

This role is intentionally designed to grow as the business grows.

As new clients are added and you become more independent, responsibilities and monthly compensation will increase. The goal is to develop someone who can eventually own much of the production process—from content shoots through scheduling—allowing the business to serve more clients while maintaining a high standard of quality.

This is an opportunity to grow alongside a creative business rather than simply fill a temporary freelance role.
