Job Description

We're looking for a Social Media Manager who can help take social from a channel that supports the brand to a channel that actively drives engagement, trust, acquisition and retention.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to simply follow a content calendar. We're looking for someone who can shape strategy, challenge thinking, spot opportunities and then roll their sleeves up and make things happen.

Client Details

You'll be joining a marketing team that's evolving. The business is investing in its brand, broadening its audience and modernising the way it connects with customers. Social has a huge role to play in that journey.

This is a business going through positive change, which means not everything is perfectly established. You'll need the confidence to challenge, the persistence to keep moving things forward and the energy to help others see what's possible through social.

Develop and lead the social media strategy
Build engaging content plans that align with wider marketing activity
Create, edit and publish content when needed, including reactive and trend-led activity
Work alongside agency partners, ensuring they deliver against objectives and opportunities aren't missed
Support acquisition, engagement and retention campaigns through smart social planning
Use performance data and insight to optimise activity and influence future decisions
Champion social media best practice across the organisation
Help evolve our channel approach, recognising that different audiences engage differently across platforms 

Profile

We're interested in people who understand social media strategically, but who are equally comfortable getting hands-on.

You'll likely bring:

Experience managing social media for a consumer-facing brand
Strong understanding of platforms including Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and emerging channels
Experience working with agencies and managing external partners
Confidence using insight, analytics and performance data to shape decisions
Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to influence across teams
Great content instincts and an eye for what resonates with different audiencesMost importantly, we're looking for someone with resilience, curiosity and drive.

Up to 10% employer pension contribution
