Three steps

Hire a Social media manager in 3 steps

From your first brief to a Social media manager working in Meta Business Suite and Sprout Social, you stay with one recruiter from scope through start.

Scope the Social media manager role

Tell us the work to own, from social media content planning to publishing and engagement, plus the systems, coverage hours, and outcomes that matter. We turn that into a focused search brief.

Review vetted Social media manager candidates

We screen candidates for social media content planning, publishing and engagement, and practical fluency in Meta Business Suite and Sprout Social. You review a shortlist with relevant context.

Hire and onboard your Social media manager

Choose your candidate and hiring model. We coordinate the handoff into your tools, operating process, and first-week priorities.

What changes for your team

Best for brands that need consistent publishing, community management, and clear channel reporting.

Consistent posting cadence

Content gets scheduled against a real calendar across every platform, instead of posted whenever someone remembers to do it.

Faster response to comments and DMs

Engagement gets monitored on your response guidelines, instead of checked whenever someone happens to open the app.

More consistent brand voice on social

One manager owns the calendar and the tone, so your channels sound like one brand instead of several different voices.

Lower cost than an agency retainer

One dedicated manager costs less than an agency retainer, and actually knows your brand instead of running several accounts at once.

Real engagement tracking, instead of guesswork

Follower growth and engagement get reported weekly, so you know what is working instead of guessing from the outside.

Why teams choose HireHawk for this role

A calendar you can see before it posts

You review the content plan in advance, and see the numbers behind it every week after.

Vetted before you meet them

5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented to clients.

Bilingual where it matters

Bilingual English and Spanish talent from Latin America, strongest in medical and legal.

Two ways to hire

Fully managed global talent from $12 an hour, or US direct hire from 12.5% of first-year salary. Compare the two on our [staffing solutions page](/solutions/).

"They built the analytics and automation our leadership now runs on, recovered tens of thousands in freight claims and cut manual work by 96%."

Siobhan Manager of Outbound Global Transportation

"It was very easy working with HireHawk, from looking for viable candidates, the interview process, all the way to implementation of your hire, they handle it all. We are also very happy with our hire. Very easy and seamless process."

Work Injury Law Group Legal services

"HireHawk filled two senior roles in under two weeks. The candidates were sharper than anything our in-house recruiter surfaced in months."

August Consumer brand

"Her scope grew within months and our leadership asked to meet her in person. We came back to HireHawk to expand the rest of the team."

Anthony Director of Operations

"When our workflow broke down she built a tracking system to stop it happening again, without being asked."

Mikayel Revenue Cycle Manager

One partner, wherever your next hire lives.

The right model depends on the seat, not the company. Some roles need someone in the building; the rest do not, and cost far less remotely.

We work with companies backed by the world’s best investors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hiring for this role

Which platforms do you cover?

We cover Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook and X, the full spread most brands actually run today. Tell us your specific platform mix on the discovery call, and we match you with a manager who already posts and engages on those exact channels, instead of learning a new platform on your account.

Do they create graphics too?

Basic graphics built from Canva templates are already part of the role, so most everyday posts do not need a separate design request. Original design work, brand campaigns or anything built from scratch, is scoped separately with a graphic designer. Ask on the discovery call if that is what you need.

What scheduling tools do you work in?

Your manager already works in Later, Sprout Social, Buffer and most standard scheduling platforms, so the first week is not spent learning software instead of posting. Name your actual tools on the discovery call, and we match you with someone who already schedules content through them daily.

Is this the same as social media management services from an agency?

Agencies selling social media management services, sometimes marketed as outsourced social media management, often run several client accounts at once on one shared team, with no single owner of your brand voice. This is a hire instead: one dedicated manager who actually knows your brand, your calendar and your audience specifically.

How fast can a manager start?

You'll see vetted candidates within 10 business days of your discovery call, so you're not waiting weeks to start interviewing. Once you've made your pick, onboarding takes 21 days, whether the hire joins your payroll directly or comes on as a fully managed global hire through HireHawk.

Do they respond to comments and DMs?

Yes, on the response guidelines you actually set, instead of a generic brand-voice script pulled from somewhere else. Anything sensitive, a complaint, a legal question or a potential PR issue, gets escalated straight to you before a reply ever goes out, so nothing risky posts without your sign-off first.
