Social Media Engagement Specialist
Who are we?
143 Studios is an award-winning media production company headquartered in Boston, MA focused on creating, producing, and publishing first-of-its-kind audio and visual content that inspires and empowers millions of people globally. We are the team behind the Golden Globe-nominated show The Mel Robbins Podcast, which is #1 most-followed show on Apple Podcasts.

About the Role
143 Studios is hiring a Social Media Engagement Specialist to help strengthen how we listen, respond and learn from our audience across social media.
This is a social-first engagement role for someone who understands that community engagement is not just replying to comments. It is relationship-building at scale. It requires listening carefully, responding with discernment, identifying audience needs, protecting brand trust and helping people move more deeply into the Mel Robbins digital ecosystem.
In this role, you will support high-volume engagement across the Mel Robbins social ecosystem, including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, Threads and other priority platforms. You will help ensure our audience feels seen, supported and thoughtfully guided toward relevant content, resources, podcast episodes, newsletters, campaigns and other brand touchpoints.
You will also help maintain clean and accurate tagging inside our social CRM, surface recurring audience themes, identify standout community stories and share useful observations with the Community team so we can better understand what our audience is saying, feeling, asking and needing in real time.
This role requires more than strong writing. It requires hands-on experience with social engagement, sound judgement in fast-moving comment environments, attention to detail, emotional intelligence and the ability to balance empathy, speed, accuracy and brand safety.
This position requires weekend coverage as assigned. Consistent and dependable coverage is an important part of the role, especially during high-volume audience moments such as launches, press moments, tours, book campaigns, viral content, major announcement and podcast spikes.
Experience using Sprinklr or a comparable enterprise social CRM platform, social listening, social care or community management platform is required.
