Social Media Manager

This is a hands-on social role at the heart of what we do. You'll be responsible for shaping the social output of a varied client portfolio - bringing ideas to the table, reacting fast when culture moves, and making sure every brand we work with shows up with intention. You're not someone who waits for a brief to tell you what's trending. You already know. And more importantly, you know which brands should lean in and which ones should sit it out. You’ll have come from a large agency environment and be used to working across multiple clients simultaneously - but you're ready to bring that experience somewhere you can have real creative influence.

What you’ll own:

• Day-to-day social strategy and content direction across a portfolio of clients
• Developing original social ideas – reactive and planned – that are right for the brand and right for the moment
• Building and maintaining content calendars that balance campaign priorities with cultural opportunity
• Working closely with our creative and production teams to brief and deliver content
• Community management and platform oversight across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and beyond
• Reporting and performance analysis – knowing what worked, why, and what to do differently

Who are Monty? We’re an award-winning social and creative agency making impact and real results happen with the world's biggest brands and boldest changemakers. Our work spans hospitality, entertainment, music, culture, live, charities and NGOs – and everything in between. Everyone here works closely with the brands we represent.

Salary: £21,000–£25,000 pro rata (£35,000–£45,000 FTE). This role is open to full-time or part-time candidates. If you're looking for 2–3 days a week, we’ll be happy to discuss contract or flexible working arrangements. If the fit is right, we’ll make it work.

What we’re looking for:

• 3–5 years in social media, with solid agency experience – ideally at a larger agency where you’ve had to move fast and manage multiple accounts
• Someone with a genuine point of view on what good social looks like, and the confidence to push for it
• Sharp reactive instincts – you spot the moment, you know the format, you move
• A strong understanding of platform nuances across TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn and emerging channels
• Confident with CapCut – you can shoot, edit and turn content around at pace without waiting on a production team
• Strong copywriting skills – you can write in a brand's voice, not just describe what the video shows
• Previous experience working across big, recognisable brands and managing multiple accounts simultaneously without dropping the standard
• Comfortable presenting ideas to clients and defending your thinking
• Organised enough to hold multiple workstreams without dropping the ball

Nice to have:

• Experience with Adobe Suite and/or Canva
• DSLR or above filming experience – you know the difference between a good shot and a great one
• Familiarity with After Effects or Premier Pro for more polished edits

Life at Monty:

• Flexible working – we trust you to manage your time
• Fridays are work from home
• Technology budget – the tools you need, sorted
• Local discounts – perks of the neighbourhood
• Regular lunch clubs and after work socials
• Invites to events plus up-skilling and personal development built in
• Wellbeing support and an open culture around it
• Dog-friendly office
