Social Media Manager

We’re on a mission to help people Eat More Plants™, and we need your expertise!

Purple Carrot started with just a seed of an idea in 2014: Today, we are leading the charge for people to adopt a plant-based lifestyle in their homes and on-the-go. Purple Carrot’s irresistible, globally-inspired recipes, fresh ingredients, and meals are available in the U.S. and Japan.

We’re a team of dedicated and passionate people who are motivated to change the world for the better and have fun doing it. As our Social Media Manager, you will elevate our storytelling and drive meaningful and engaging conversations with our online community. You'll lead concepting, production, and execution of all social media campaigns and programming, and help establish Purple Carrot as a trusted source of information for both customers and non-customers.
