This is a hybrid work role local to Boise, Idaho. The social media manager will be expected to be in the Harkla Office 2-3 times per week to work with the content team.
Please read about our company, mission, and core values below:
Harkla has one mission: Help families raise happy and healthy children with special needs.
This mission is at the core of everything we do. Every decision is centered around the question of “how does this help our customers?”
We try to accomplish this through:
The way we differentiate ourselves from our competition is by always asking, how can we be more helpful? In customer service, our blog, or post-purchase information, we want to be more helpful.
Harkla's Core Principles:
Harkla is a highly autonomous, hard-working group of people trying to change the world of special needs for the better. This is a great environment for hungry, self-starters who want the ability to learn, grow, and make a large social impact.
This is not a great environment for people who want a comfortable, repeatable, straightforward job, and don’t want the responsibility that comes with a flexible, autonomous work position.
