Purpose of the role

The Social Media Manager owns our social media presence across all channels and markets - from strategy and content creation to performance reporting. This is a hands-on role: the successful candidate will personally produce video, copy, and Canva assets, bringing strong storytelling, creative execution, and organisational discipline to manage a busy multi-channel content calendar across teams.

What You'll Be Doing

• Social Strategy & Planning
  • Define and own the social media strategy, aligning activity with business goals, marketing, and other stakeholders.
  • Build and maintain the content calendar as a strategic planning/execution tool – structured, forward-looking, and responsive to campaign priorities, product moments, and cultural opportunity.
  • Use Wrike to organise workflow, manage deadlines, and coordinate dependencies across teams.
  • Monitor trends, platform algorithm changes, and emerging formats, incorporating findings into planning on an ongoing basis.
• Content Creation
  • Produce original, engaging social content across copy, graphics, and video – personally delivering finished assets to a high standard.
  • Write clear, engaging, on-brand copy across all channels, adapting tone and format to audience and platform.
  • Design social assets in Canva, maintaining and evolving the nShift brand kit and template library to ensure visual consistency at scale.
  • Script, film, and edit video content for social channels, including event coverage.
• Channel & Community Management
  • Manage all social channels (LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook) and ratings & reviews platforms (Trust Pilot, G2, GMB) using a dedicated social media management platform.
  • Schedule and publish content, monitor engagement, and manage community interactions in a tone consistent with the nShift brand voice.
  • Respond to comments, messages, and mentions in a timely and considered way, fostering genuine audience connection.
• Performance & Reporting
  • Develop and maintain a KPI framework that connects social activity to measurable business outcomes.
  • Set up, maintain and report on social listening dashboards.
  • Monitor performance across channels and produce regular reporting for senior stakeholders, presenting data as a clear, actionable narrative.
• Employee Advocacy and internal comms
  • Communicate with and coach colleagues on social best practices and support them in developing a credible professional presence on behalf of the brand, as well as empowering them to become advocates.
• Cross-functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with performance marketing, regional, sales, partnership, and people teams to align social activity with wider business programmes.
  • Represent the Marketing team at events, contributing to live content capture and coverage where required.

About You

You are a creative self-starter who takes full ownership of your work – from strategy to execution. You thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment and have a natural eye for what makes content stop the scroll, combined with the organisational discipline to deliver consistently at scale.

Essential What you will bring

• 5+ years of social media management experience, proven end-to-end ownership across strategy, planning, content creation, and reporting.
• Excellent storytelling, copywriting, and AI prompting skills – able to write compelling, on-brand copy across formats and platforms without reliance on templates or third-party support.
• Hands-on Canva proficiency at the brand governance level: building, managing, and evolving templates.
• Ability to script, shoot, and edit video content independently.
• Strong organisational skills, with a structured approach to managing a busy, multi-channel content calendar and cross-functional workload. Experience with Wrike or a comparable project management tool is a plus.
• Experience with a social media management and listening platform (Sprinklr, Hootsuite, Sprout, or equivalent) – hands-on scheduling, monitoring, and reporting capability is essential; implementation experience is an advantage.
• Strong brand instincts and governance experience, with the confidence to challenge activity that falls outside brand guidelines.
• Able to present performance data and strategic recommendations clearly to senior stakeholders.
• Active user of AI tools as part of day-to-day workflow.
• A portfolio demonstrating original content, brand work, and creative output across social channels.
• Willingness to travel to European events and team off-sites.

Desirable

• Direct experience with Sprinklr, including involvement in platform setup or advanced configuration.
• Hands-on experience with Wrike for marketing project and workflow management.
• Multi-market or multi-region social management experience.
• Agency/busy studio background, bringing breadth of experience and comfort operating without extensive in-house resources.
