Part-Time, Independent Contract | Fully Remote

United Way of Floyd, Polk & Chattooga County

About United Way FPC

United Way of Floyd, Polk & Chattooga County (United Way FPC) mobilizes our community's resources to help neighbors across Floyd, Polk & Chattooga County meet essential needs and build lasting stability. Our work includes 211, the free and confidential connection to local health and human services, alongside Advocacy, Community Engagement, and Community Mediation. We are looking for a part-time, contract Social Media Specialist to help us share that work across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

The Role

This is a remote, part-time independent contract role managing organic social media content and performance reporting across our three platforms, in keeping with United Way Worldwide and United Way FPC brand standards. You will own the day-to-day of three active channels for a recognized community organization, work independently, and set your own schedule, with our team supporting you by email and chat. The engagement is built around a defined body of work rather than fixed hours, so how and when you do it is up to you. This is not a full-time role and not a step-in-and-be-managed one. It is a self-directed engagement for someone who cares about local impact and wants visible work they can point to in their portfolio and run on their own terms.

What You Will Do

Plan, create, and schedule organic content, including written posts and graphics drawn from our approved asset library, across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn on an agreed monthly content calendar, at a baseline of about three posts per week per platform.
Monitor public comments across all three platforms and respond to routine comments in our brand voice, brief replies rather than extended conversation, escalating complaints, misinformation, or sensitive topics to United Way FPC leadership. Direct messages are handled through automated redirects to 211 and chat.
Coordinate with our program directors to gather the stories, updates, and reports that serve as source material for content.
Track and deliver a monthly report on standard platform performance metrics.
Keep all content consistent with United Way Worldwide and United Way FPC brand standards, drawing on approved assets in Brandfolder.
Provide a brief written status check-in every two weeks.

What We Are Looking For

Experience managing organic social media for an organization or brand across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
Comfort with native platform analytics and a content scheduling tool.
Strong writing and sound judgment working within established brand standards.
Reliable, self-directed work habits suited to a remote, independent engagement.
Nonprofit, civic, or mission-driven experience is a plus.

Who This Role Is For

This role tends to be a strong fit if you:

Work independently and would rather be trusted with outcomes than managed day to day.
Are building or maintaining a freelance practice and want a steady anchor client with a mission behind it.
Want meaningful, flexible work that fits around other clients, studies, or family commitments.
Care about this community and want your work to show up locally.

Because it is a focused, part-time engagement, it works best as a complement to other work rather than a primary income or a route to full-time hours.

The Details

Engagement: independent contractor (1099), part-time and non-exclusive, so you are free to serve other clients.
Location: fully remote.
Compensation: $1,500 per month, paid monthly.
Time commitment: approximately 6 to 9 hours per week, with heavier weeks around monthly reporting and content planning. You set your own schedule, and the engagement is based on deliverables rather than tracked hours.
Term: ongoing, on a month-to-month basis.
Onboarding: a brief brand orientation, covering United Way Worldwide and United Way FPC standards and our Brandfolder asset library, is provided up front, with ongoing asset access after.

United Way FPC is an equal opportunity organization and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds.
