We’re looking for a Social Media Manager to join an exciting agency team and take ownership of social content, community and strategy across a range of brilliant clients.

  • Using social listening and cultural insights to identify trends, opportunities and conversations
  • Keeping ahead of emerging platforms, formats, trends and audience behaviours
  • Monitoring performance, sentiment and engagement and turning data into actionable insights
  • Presenting social ideas, content and performance to clients
  • Supporting scopes, timings and budgets across social projects
  • Identifying opportunities to grow and elevate clients’ social presence
  • 4+ years’ agency experience working across social media
  • Strong experience creating content for TikTok, Instagram and other major platforms
  • A hands‑on creator who is confident scripting, filming and editing
  • Strong understanding of platform trends, native formats and algorithms
  • Excellent writing, storytelling and communication skills
  • Naturally culturally curious and always aware of what’s happening online
  • Comfortable working quickly and reacting to trends in real time
  • Confident using analytics and turning performance data into insights
  • Able to balance big‑picture creative thinking with hands‑on execution
  • Highly organised, detail‑oriented and comfortable managing multiple projects
  • Collaborative and confident working across Creative, Social, PR and Client Services
