OVERVIEW
We are seeking a Social Media Coordinator who is equal parts content creator and strategist. This role goes far beyond posting.

You will manage multiple social media handles, including Corcoran Horizon Realty and our other owned and partner companies.
In this role, you will play a key part in shaping how our brand and the communities we represent show up across digital platforms. You will lead our real-time storytelling, capturing dynamic content in the field and translating our projects, people, and moments into compelling, trend-aware social narratives.
This position is ideal for someone who lives and breathes social media and understands what drives engagement.
