A NOTE FROM HMG LEADERSHIP

HMG is not a corporate machine. We are a small, driven team of industry people who care deeply about the brands we build, the clients we serve, and the standard we hold ourselves to. We move fast, challenge each other, and take real pride in what we put out into the world.

The person we hire for this role will be in the room where it happens — travelling with leadership (occasional) , shaping how HMG looks to the industry, and building something that didn't fully exist before they arrived. If you want a seat at the table and the freedom to do your best creative work, HMG is the place. If you want to punch in and punch out, this is not the role for you.

ABOUT HMG INC.

HMG Inc. is a brand development agency built for the aftermarket automotive and Powersports industry. We manage the full B2B & select B2C sales lifecycle for our clients. As we scale, the way we tell our story and the stories of our clients has never mattered more.

We don't do average. The brands we represent are built on passion, performance, and identity. Our content needs to reflect that at every level — from the agency's own presence down to the platforms of each client we serve. This role is a cornerstone investment in HMG's future.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a creative leadership position — not a coordinator role. You will own the content output and social media performance for HMG Inc. and its brand clients, reporting directly to the President and serving as the primary creative voice across every brand in the portfolio.

LANE 1 - HMG Agency Content

Build and grow the HMG brand. Vlogs, behind-the-scenes, agency culture, travel and event coverage, and raw authentic storytelling. real, magnetic, industry-credible, and scroll-stopping.

LANE 2 - Client Brand Content

Manage and grow social media for HMG's brand partners. Monthly content calendars, organic content creation, Meta ad campaigns, community management — all delivered on time, approved by leadership, and measured against clear growth targets.

THE CONTENT STANDARD

For HMG agency content, the benchmark is micro content. Real moments. High production value. Content that feels lived-in, not staged — storytelling that pulls people in and keeps them coming back. You will travel occasionally with the President to trade shows, dealer visits, and shoots, capturing the behind-the-scenes grind, the wins, and the culture of this industry.

For client content, the standard is equally high — but the voice is theirs, not ours. You must shift between brand identities without losing sharpness. Every piece published under an HMG-managed brand reflects on us as an agency. That responsibility lives in this role.
