• Monitor performance metrics and optimise content based on engagement and reach
• Stay up to date with platform trends, formats, and algorithm changes
• Collaborate closely with marketing, performance, and creative teams to ensure cohesive messaging
• Help evolve and maintain a consistent brand voice across social channels

• Strong video editing skills (short-form, social-first content)
• Confident storytelling ability with a strong eye for visual detail
• Experience creating content for platforms such as TikTok and Instagram
• Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple content streams
• Creative mindset balanced with an understanding of performance and engagement metrics

Desirable Experience

• Experience working within a fast-growth or digital-first brand
• Familiarity with tools such as CapCut, Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or similar
• Experience appearing on camera or directing on-screen content
• Understanding of social analytics and content optimisation
• Interest in brand-building, creative strategy, and digital trends

What's on Offer

• High level of creative freedom and ownership
• Opportunity to shape and grow a brand's social presence
• In-house role within a collaborative and ambitious marketing team
• Clear progression as the brand and marketing function continue to scale
