Instagram & TikTok Growth (Social Media Manager

Job ID: 40071935

Budget: $25 – $50 AUD

Social Media Manager

I am looking for a trained, experienced Social Media Manager who can take ownership of TikTok and Instagram growth and deliver measurable results quickly.

This is not an entry-level or learning-on-the-job role. I need someone who already understands social media strategy, platform algorithms, content optimisation, and audience growth, and who can apply that knowledge immediately.

What I Need From You

I need a social media manager who can:

Grow my following quickly on TikTok and Instagram

Increase engagement (comments, shares, saves, watch time – not just likes)

Understand and leverage algorithms, trends, hooks, posting cadence, and analytics

Advise me strategically, not just post content

Tell me what works, why it works, and what to do next

Work efficiently and independently, with minimal hand-holding

Required Skills & Experience

You must:

Be formally trained or highly experienced in social media marketing (TikTok & Instagram specifically)

Have a proven track record of growing accounts (your own or clients’)

Understand content strategy, hooks, storytelling, trend adaptation, hashtags, timing, and platform-specific behaviour

Be confident reading analytics and adjusting strategy based on performance

Be comfortable giving direct, professional advice and challenging ideas when needed

What Success Looks Like (Short Term)

I expect to see:

Clear growth trends in followers and engagement within the first 4–6 weeks

A defined content strategy from the start (not guesswork)

Regular feedback on what is working and what is being refined

Evidence that the account is gaining traction with the right audience

How I Work

I value clarity, speed, and results

I am open to guidance and direction from someone who knows what they’re doing

I expect professional communication, accountability, and momentum

If something isn’t working, I want it changed quickly

What I Will Ask You in the Interview

Be prepared to answer:

How have you grown TikTok or Instagram accounts before?

What would you do in the first 30 days to grow my account?

How do you decide what content to post and when?

How do you measure success beyond likes?

What results can I realistically expect in the first 1–2 months?
