The RealReal Retail & E-commerce

Social Content & Video Manager

New York City, NY Hybrid Full-time

Location: New York, NY

About The Role

The Social Content & Video Manager conceptualizes, shoots and edits social-first video for The RealReal. This is a hands-on role. You will develop the ideas, capture them, cut them, and deliver fast enough that the product is still available when customers go looking for it.

Our inventory is one-of-a-kind and moves quickly, so our content has to be equally fast and specific. The ideal candidate has deep fashion knowledge across designers, categories and eras, and understands how consignment and resale actually work. That fluency is a core requirement of the role.

This role partners closely with the Social, Editorial, Merchandising and Studio teams, and will help define how video gets made as we build out our studio.
