At the Indianapolis Colts we want to set the trends. Not follow them.
The Indianapolis Colts are seeking an experienced Social Media Operations Manager with a passion for social media and isn’t afraid to take risks. When something is going viral we want your first thought to be “how can I do something even better?” and not “I want to do that too.” Our social team, when fully staffed, consists of a Director who leads strategy, an Intern who focuses on vertical video content and a Manager (THIS COULD BE YOU!) that provides the day-to-day life support of our platforms. As the voice of our social brand you’re expected to understand the game, our Colts history and the NFL calendar.
