Job Description
🚀 About Nivoda
Nivoda is a fast-growing B2B marketplace that is transforming the global diamond and gemstone industry. We connect buyers and sellers across the world, processing $300M+ in annual transactions and unlocking a $350B industry opportunity. We move fast, think big, and care deeply about the businesses and people we serve.
🌍 Our Mission
The diamond trading industry has historically been fragmented, opaque, and inaccessible. Nivoda was founded to change that: to empower businesses of all sizes and locations to participate in a fair, efficient global marketplace. Every line of code, every integration, every automation we build brings us closer to that mission.
🤔 About the Role
We are looking for a Sr. Content and Social Media Manager to own our social channels and be the creative engine behind our marketing campaigns. You are a storyteller first and an operator second: you can take an idea, shape it into something people actually want to watch and share, and make it show up consistently everywhere we publish.
This is a connective role. You will own the content calendar, plan and run campaigns end to end, keep a strong and consistent presence on social, and run our newsletter. You will be the glue across marketing, making sure a campaign lands as one coherent story across social, email, and beyond rather than a set of disconnected posts. As the team grows we will add editorial depth alongside you (long-form writing and podcast production), so you can stay focused on what you do best: social, storytelling, and campaigns that move.
What would you be doing?
* Own Nivoda’s social media channels end to end, from strategy and calendar to publishing and community, with Instagram and our primary channels front and centre.

Tips for South African Applicants
Timezone Advantage
South Africa (SAST, UTC+2) overlaps well with European business hours and has a few hours of overlap with US East Coast. Mention your timezone flexibility in your application.
Salary in Context
Even without a listed salary, international remote roles typically pay 2-3x more than equivalent local positions in South Africa due to the exchange rate advantage.
Application Tips
Tailor your CV to international standards — use a clean format, highlight remote work experience, and include your English proficiency. Many SA applicants succeed by emphasising their strong work ethic and cultural adaptability.
Load Shedding Preparedness
If you're applying for a remote role, having a backup power solution (UPS, inverter, or generator) and mobile data as a backup internet connection shows employers you're prepared for South Africa's infrastructure challenges.
