Social Media Manager

London | 🕒 Hybrid | 💰 Competitive salary + great benefits

We’re looking for a Social Media Manager who gets what makes sports content tick. Someone who's just as comfortable creating a real-time post during a live match as they are planning a campaign that keeps fans coming back for more.

Ideally, you’ve worked at a sports agency, broadcaster, club or league in a Social Media Exec/Producer or Junior Manager role. You’ve covered events live (on-site and remotely), you know how to write punchy captions in the heat of the moment, and you’ve got a great eye for content that cuts through.

What you'll be doing:

📆 Running multiple social channels day-to-day, keeping calendars sharp and content flowing

💡 Creating ideas for campaigns and social-first content that sports fans actually want to see

✍️ Writing real-time and scheduled copy that brings events to life

🎬 Briefing editors, designers and creators (internal and external)

📸 Covering live sport and jumping into action when big moments happen

📊 Optimising content across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube

🎥 Editing short-form video using Premiere Pro and CapCut

🖌️ Light Photoshop work to tweak and repurpose graphics/templates

You’ll bring:

⚽ A genuine passion for sport and a strong editorial instinct

📲 Deep knowledge of social platforms and what performs

🚀 A proactive mindset – someone who’s hungry to grow, push creative boundaries, and level up their career
