Primary Responsibilities and Duties:

• Brainstorming, writing, filming, routing and posting compelling content on peta2’s TikTok and working with a team of interns and other staff members to make sure our content aligns with our strategy and mission

• Similarly, you should be well-versed in Gen-Z and Gen Alpha pop culture and keep up on the latest shows, celebs, influencers, podcasts, and popular books, as well as collective generational sentiments.
