We build a holistic and advanced digital strategy for our clients so that each channel can complement one another effectively.
Socium Media is determined to create the best place for the best people to work. You are not just an “employee” here. Instead, you are an ally that will play a crucial role in our operation. Your voice always matters, and we couldn’t be more committed to you and your growth. We’re transparent as an organization, sharing financial details, sales and hiring pipelines, and internal company ratings during our quarterly business reviews for employees.

Our private office is in lower Manhattan, right on the border of Soho, Chinatown, and Tribeca.

We also have a fully stocked kitchen with free coffee, snacks, and more! Need anything else? We can probably make it happen 🙂
About The Position
This is an in-house position based out of our NYC Office.
