Job Description

The Role

Absolutely Ridiculous is looking for a Social Media Manager who combines creative instincts with strategic thinking and a strong pulse on internet culture. This person will lead the charge on making our social platforms impossible to ignore — building community, sparking conversation, and making noise where it matters most. If you’re passionate about storytelling, energized by culture, and excited by the idea of shaping a disruptive brand in the sports world, this is your moment.

What You’ll Get To Do

  • Shape the Brand : Help define and evolve how Absolutely Ridiculous shows up online — building a social presence that’s bold, relevant, and unmistakably us.
  • Run the Show : Own the day-to-day management and content planning for all social media platforms, tailoring strategy and execution to each unique audience.
  • Drive the Content Engine : Lead planning, creation, and optimization of creative that turns heads and builds emotional equity with our audience. 
  • Lead with Heart (and Data) : Mentor a nimble team of creators while building fast, flexible workflows grounded in smart strategy and performance insights.
  • Watch the Numbers : Set KPIs, monitor engagement, and pull learnings to keep content and social strategies sharp, effective, and ever-evolving.
  • Collaborate Like Crazy : Work cross-functionally with paid, email, and web teams to align campaigns, maximize reach, and keep the brand experience cohesive.
  • Manage the Comments Section : Develop engagement protocols, manage crisis moments with clarity and calm, and make sure our brand voice always shows up the right way.
  • Own the Big Moments : Oversee social content plans and on-the-ground execution for product launches, events, and key marketing moments.
  • Spot Trends Early : Stay ahead of emerging formats, social behaviors, and youth culture — helping the brand evolve with the platforms and audiences we serve.
  • Play the Influencer Game : Identify and activate opportunities with athletes, creators, and partners who authentically align with the Absolutely Ridiculous voice.

Who You Are

  • A creative, data-literate social media mind who’s built and scaled brands through innovative strategies that drive real business results.
  • Possess a strong understanding of content that resonates with younger audiences, especially high school and college students.
  • Experience producing and editing content, particularly short-form video. Proficiency with in-app tools is essential; Adobe Premiere Pro is a plus.
  • Excellent communication skills — both written and visual — with a knack for crafting narratives that feel human, relevant, and true to the brand.
  • A natural curiosity for culture — from emerging platforms and creators to trends and online conversation.
  • Fluent in social metrics and analytics tools — because fun and performance can (and should) coexist.
  • A well-rounded portfolio of platform-specific content: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
  • Comfort working in fast-paced, content-heavy environments while maintaining unrelenting brand standards.
  • Comfortable working with athletes, influencers, and brand partners.
  • Bonus if you have experience in NCAA/NIL strategy or compliance.
  • Background in sports and/or product-focused brands is a huge plus.

This job description is not all-inclusive, and certain activities, duties, or responsibilities may be required of the employee as needed.

What We Offer

  • Salary Range: $75,000 - $85,000
  • Company-paid health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) retirement savings plan with 3% match
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
