Urban Mining Company (UMC) manufactures rare earth, permanent magnets. The specific magnet we make is referred to by its main elements: NdFeB. These magnets are used in a variety of applications including hard disk drives, wind turbines, electric motors, and MRI machines. We make them by recycling old magnets of the same kind. Roughly 85-90% of the world’s supply of these magnets comes from China, and none are currently being manufactured in the USA. We want to bring back that industry.
We are looking for someone to help us establish and manage our online presence by creating and disseminating content. We currently have a website, and we aren’t at this stage looking for assistance with that. Initially, what we need is somebody who can set up, manage, and update/run profiles on the variety of social media outlets. Eventually, we may expand into other online fora. We have most of the content already drafted in other formats: scientific papers, white papers, etc. We need someone who can take pieces of these, and turn them into shorter individual posts and articles on the various services we would join. Aside from just posting them, we need someone proficient enough with social media to try and send these items, or updates to certain targeted companies and individuals. We also need someone who can write well, and ideally someone who possesses a basic understanding of, or interest in science and engineering (but by no means is any kind of subject matter expertise required here). If the person shows skill, this role could expand to include additional responsibilities.
