Social Media Manager - Brand Hackers in City of Westminster

Hey! We're Brand Hackers. We help challenger brands fight smarter, think sharper, and win bigger. We build experienced fractional teams that slot in like puzzle pieces, bringing the right expertise and energy exactly when a brand needs it. We're not a typical agency or a one-person show. We're a team of specialists across the whole marketing mix, from brand strategy and social to performance and web development, and we've worked on more than 100 brands. All that shared experience is what keeps our ideas sharp.

In four years we've grown from two people to more than 20, with case studies we're proud of and a reputation that keeps building. We work with established challengers like Tony's Chocolonely and fast-growing startups like Seep, across FMCG, Beauty, Luxury, Film and beyond. The briefs are varied, covering customer insight, brand strategy, campaign planning and comms. If you want to work on brands with something to prove, alongside people who love doing it, you'll fit right in.

• Set the strategy behind the creative work, not just manage calendars or chase trends.
• Push founders to change course when their social approach isn't working.
