- Write captions and calls-to-action that support sales, donations, events, and Habitat’s mission, and maintain consistent brand voice and visual identity across channels in alignment with organization-wide brand standards.
- Plan content capture in advance for major campaigns and events, while staying flexible to cover timely merchandise, trends, and unplanned opportunities.
- Regularly visit ReStore locations to source fresh content, and maintain an organized digital library of photos, video, and templates, repurposing content across formats to maximize its value.
- Verify pricing, dates, locations, and other promotional details for accuracy before publication.
Community Management & Customer Engagement
- Monitor and respond to comments, direct messages, and mentions during scheduled daily check-in windows, in a timely, friendly, and professional manner consistent with ReStore’s brand voice.

- Prepare and edit photography and graphics for the weekly ReStore email blast.
- Coordinate with internal staff or external marketing partners when additional creative support is needed.
Performance & Reporting
- Track platform analytics (reach, engagement, video views, follower growth) and use the insights to identify which content and campaigns perform best.
- Provide periodic updates to leadership on content performance, audience trends, and notable successes, evaluated on meaningful engagement and business impact rather than follower count alone.
- Recommend new content ideas, trends, and creative concepts based on performance data and platform trends.

- Stories: Monday through Friday
- Primary posts: 7 per week, including at least 3 Reels/short-form videos
- Community management: scheduled daily check-in windows (see above)
