Social Producer

We are hiring a Social Producer to build and scale the digital presence of a globally recognised interview-led show. This role is responsible for transforming long-form episodes into high-performing, platform-native short-form content - and turning audience attention into sustained community growth. You will lead social strategy end-to-end: concept development, editing, publishing, optimisation, experimentation, and performance analysis. The goal is to convert compelling conversations into cultural moments, and cultural moments into measurable business impact. This is a role for someone who understands that social media is not distribution - it is growth infrastructure.

Goals

• Launching, scaling, and optimising multi-platform social channels
• Delivering sustained double-digit audience growth
• Creating repeatable content formats that drive conversation and shareability
• Establishing episodes as social-first cultural moments
• Building a scalable content engine that balances speed, experimentation, quality, and brand consistency
• Turning viewers into active community members and advocates

Core Responsibilities

• Develop and execute the short-form content strategy across TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube
• Translate long-form interview content into high-impact, scroll-stopping social clips
• Build repeatable creative frameworks that can scale
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate ideation, editing, testing, and optimisation
• Use analytics and insights to inform creative decisions and continuously improve performance
• Collaborate with production, editorial, and brand teams to extend storytelling beyond the episode
• Identify trends, platform shifts, and cultural moments - and respond in real time

Ideal Profile

• Deep Platform Knowledge: Strong understanding of TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube mechanics, behaviours, and growth levers.
• AI-Enabled Operator: Comfortable integrating AI into creative workflows to increase output, improve quality, and optimise performance.
• Short-Form Specialist: Able to identify emotionally resonant or high-impact moments and craft them into compelling short-form narratives.
• Performance-Oriented: Uses data as a decision-making tool, not just a reporting tool.
• Fast & Structured: Operates at speed while building systems and processes that scale.
• Collaborative & Commercially Minded: Understands how social contributes to brand equity, audience growth, and revenue.
• Podcast & Interview Fluent: Understands how to preserve nuance and emotional depth when adapting long-form conversations into short-form content.

Who This Role Suits

• Someone who thinks like a brand builder, not just a content editor
• Someone who builds systems, not one-off posts
• Someone obsessed with audience behaviour, culture, and performance
• Someone who sees experimentation as essential, not optional

Location: London
