Social Creative Producer

Lee Tilford Agency (LTA) is expanding our Social Media team and hiring a creative, idea-driven content producer based in or near Austin.

This is a creativity-first role.

We’re looking for someone who can consistently generate strong short-form content ideas for established consumer brands — particularly retail — and bring those ideas to life quickly. The production is hands‑on but not cinematic. The thinking needs to be sharp.

You should be comfortable walking into a working session and generating multiple platform‑native ideas, spotting trends early, and translating business objectives into content that feels natural on Tik Tok, Instagram Reels, and similar platforms.

You’ll work across multiple brands in a full-service agency environment, collaborating with creative and paid media teams.

• Generate original short‑form content ideas across multiple brands (10–20+ viable concepts per month)
• Turn retail promotions, in‑store moments, and seasonal campaigns into engaging, platform‑native content
• Identify trends, formats, audio, and cultural moments early and adapt them quickly
• Present and explain creative ideas internally and occasionally to clients
• Collaborate with paid media teams to create content suitable for both organic and paid use
• Personally shoot and edit short‑form vertical content (Tik Tok, Reels, etc.)
• Capture content on‑site at studios, retail locations, and client environments
• Direct on‑camera talent and produce fast‑turn, mobile‑first content
• Help maintain distinct brand voices across multiple accounts
• Stay current on platform changes and audience behavior

• 4–6+ years creating content for established brand social accounts (agency or in‑house preferred)
• Strong creative instincts for short‑form, platform‑native content
• Experience working across multiple brands or business objectives at the same time
• Hands‑on experience shooting and editing vertical short‑form video
• Comfortable operating lightweight production equipment in retail or on‑location environments
• Experience collaborating with marketing or paid media teams
• Clear communicator who can explain and defend creative ideas

Retail experience is strongly preferred, especially translating in‑store activity into social content. However, exceptional consumer brand experience will also be considered.

Applicants must include:

• Links to at least two brand social accounts you contributed to
• 3–5 short‑form videos you personally concepted and produced
• A short explanation of your role in each example

Applications without portfolio examples will not be reviewed.

• Must be located in or near Austin, TX
• Frequent on‑site shoots at our studio and client retail locations
• Travel within Texas several times per year; occasional brief out‑of‑state shoots (1–3 per year)
• Standard hours: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM CST, Monday–Friday
• During work hours, employees are expected to be focused solely on LTA responsibilities
• All necessary computer and production equipment will be provided.

Lee Tilford Agency is a full‑service advertising agency with nearly 50 years of experience. Our in‑house capabilities include creative, media buying (digital and traditional), video production, and web development.

We value strong work, clear thinking, and maintaining a healthy balance between our clients, our team, and our families.

• Paid vacation starting at two weeks
• Paid sick/personal leave
• Group medical, dental, and vision coverage
