📋 Description

• The Koch Associate Program (KAP) is a career accelerator for early to mid-career professionals with a drive to tackle our country’s most pressing challenges in more effective, principled ways. • KAP equips associates with the tools, mindsets, and community to succeed as social entrepreneurs—individuals excited to find new and better ways to break barriers and eliminate injustice. • Associates spend one day each week engaging in experiential learning with Stand Together Fellowships and work at one of our many partner organizations the rest of the week. • Our curriculum is designed to supercharge your development and equip you for long-term success as you seek to have an impact on the problems that prevent people from realizing their potential. • The Mercatus Center at George Mason University seeks a Social and Digital Marketing Associate to help the Marginal Revolution University (MRU) team build a new brand: Econ Nerds. • Launching by summer 2025, Econ Nerds will be a video and podcasting platform where experts from the Mercatus Center and beyond can share economic insights with a mass audience. • We plan to release new content every week. • Unlike MRU’s traditional focus on textbook “Econ 101,” Econ Nerds content will range farther afield, exploring whatever topics appeal to our contributors and viewers. • We expect social media to be the key driver of Econ Nerds’ audience–and our Social and Digital Marketing Associate will be the key player in building the brand’s social presence. • Working with a small team (primarily MRU’s marketing director, our content creators, and a designer), the Associate will provide the social media expertise (and the legwork!) necessary to build a large, engaged audience for Econ Nerds–starting from a blank page. • Ideally the brand’s social presence will not merely promote the videos and podcasts, but rather provide popular content in its own right. • Remote, but office space at the Mercatus Center in Arlington, VA will be available if desired.

🎯 Requirements

• College-level (or better) writing skills in American English, with the ability to write engaging, humorous, and pithy social posts • Expert, active user of multiple social platforms such as X, TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram • 2+ years managing active corporate/brand social media accounts (or a high-profile personal account) • 2+ years managing digital ads on social or other platforms • Strong understanding and appreciation of economics, especially the approaches typical on MarginalRevolution.com. (An econ degree is great, but by itself is neither necessary nor sufficient for this role.) • Demonstrated success in a remote role is strongly preferred
