We are Olsson, a team-based, purpose-driven engineering and design firm. Our solutions improve communities and our people make it possible.

Our most meaningful asset is our people, and we are dedicated to providing an environment where they can continue to learn, grow, and thrive. Our entrepreneurial spirit is what has allowed us — and will continue to allow us — to grow. The result? Inspired people, amazing designs, and projects with purpose.

As a Social Media Coordinator, you will be responsible for the management and growth of Olsson’s social media channels, including LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. This position will require strong writing skills, a knowledge of social media best practices, an understanding of social media’s role in an overall communications plan, and the ability to align social media with Olsson’s brand. Experience with Sprout or another social media management system is a plus.

These ideas should also excite employees and generate interest from prospective clients and employment candidates.

Specific duties include monitoring Olsson’s social media accounts and engaging with social topics relevant to Olsson’s work. You will be expected to create timely responses to comments from followers, set and achieve follower count growth goals, manage the social media budget, and educate Olsson employees on social media best practices.
