Social Media Marketing Manager - Freelance

We’re Mustard — the pop-art, colour-happy, rule-bending design brand on a mission to make the world’s desks, offices, and lives a little less beige. Take a look – www.justmustard.com

Our motto? Escape Ordinary.

Our vibe? Think Warhol meets Wi-Fi.

We design products that make people smile — and we’re looking for someone who can do the same with words, reels, and ideas.

📣The Role:

We need a Social Media Manager who’s equal parts strategist, storyteller, and chaos curator. Someone who doesn’t just “manage” social — they make it unmissable.

You’ll be the creative force behind our voice across Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn (and whatever app Gen Z invents next week). You’ll dream up content that makes people laugh, double-tap, and occasionally question their life choices (in a good way).

🧠 You, Probably:

• Have a brain that runs on caffeine and trending sounds.
• Can make stationery go viral (yes, really).
• Speak fluent pop culture, meme, and analytics.
• Think in grids, gifs, and witty one-liners.
• Can explain the difference between “quirky” and “try-hard.”
• Feel personally offended by beige.

✏️ What You’ll Actually Do

• Create thumb-stopping content that feels effortlessly Mustard.
• Plan and post across channels with a strategic streak (and a mischievous one).
• Build communities, not audiences.
• Create and send email campaigns that make people take action
• Run and manage brand collabs and influencers that vibe with Mustard
• Work with our design team to concept visuals that pop harder than bubble wrap.
• Report on what’s working — and reinvent what isn’t.
• Bring fresh ideas, fast fingers, and fearless experimentation.

💥 Bonus Points If You:

• Have ideas that make designers nervous (in a good way).
• Can write captions that sound like a friend with great taste.
• Have an eye for visual storytelling and an instinct for viral timing.
• Can turn a product launch into a pop culture moment.

🛠 Perks of Joining Mustard

• Work somewhere that actually gets creativity.
• Collaborate with people who think weird is a compliment.
• Play with products that look like candy and behave like ideas.
• Access to an unlimited supply of stationery puns (use responsibly).

🎬 How to Apply

• Drop Colonel Mustard a message (reuben@justmustard.com) and tell him why you\’re the right person for the job
• Unfortunately a simple click to apply will be ignored

In short:

If you can make colour contagious, captions clever, and content unscrollable, your desk is waiting.

🟡 Escape Ordinary. Join Mustard.

PS: This is a WFH freelance gig with potential to grow into part- or full-time, and if you’re London-based, the occasional in-person creative jam (with snacks) is a definite bonus.
