Make Chilled Pubs impossible to scroll past. We’re looking for a confident, creative and seriously organised Social Media Manager to take Chilled Pubs’ social media to the next level.
You’ll be out in our pubs, capturing the food, people, atmosphere and personality that make Chilled Pubs what it is — and turning it into content people actually want to watch, share and engage with.
You’ll report directly to our Marketing Manager but be responsible for owning the process from strategy through to doing— planning, creating, filming, editing, publishing and engaging with our audience.
About Chilled Pubs
We’re Chilled Pubs— seven food-led gastro pubs across the Midlands, built around seriously good food, warm hospitality and teams full of personality. Our mission is to Inspire Togetherness. We want our social media to bring that to life.
What you’ll be doing
- Developing and delivering our social media strategy
- Planning content and managing content calendars
- Travelling to our pubs to capture food, people, events and experiences
- Creating Reels, TikToks, Stories, carousels, static posts and other social content
- Filming, editing, writing captions and scheduling content
- Responding to comments and engaging with our audience
- Reposting content to Stories
- Keeping up with trends, sounds and new platform features
- Reviewing performance and using insights to improve future content
- Working closely with our pub teams to find and create great stories
- Bringing new ideas to grow our channels and strengthen the Chilled Pubs brand online
In short: idea → plan → create → film → edit → publish → engage.
This is a field-based role. Your base will be The Joiners Arms in Quarndon, but you’ll regularly travel between our pubs to create content and work with our teams. A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is essential. This is a full-time role to meet the needs of the business. Social media and hospitality don’t always happen between 9 and 5, so the role may include evenings and weekends when required. Flexibility is key.
What we’re looking for
What matters to us is that you can demonstrate experience creating great social content and growing a channel or audience. You’ll ideally have:
- Experience managing and growing social media
- Confident with presenting to and meeting expectations of our stakeholders
- Experience creating content for a brand, business or organisation
- A portfolio showing a range of content — Reels, videos, carousels, static posts, Stories etc.
- Strong filming and editing skills
- Great organisational and planning skills
- An understanding of what makes content perform
- A genuine love of social media and keeping up with trends
- Confidence working independently and with different teams
- A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle
Most importantly, you’ll be extraverted, bubbly, creative, organised and full of ideas. You’ll be comfortable walking into a busy pub, talking to people, getting involved and spotting the next piece of content.
