• Keeping a social-first mindset – you instinctively see the best way to make content thrive.
• Writing all content – from captions to post copy, making everything feel fresh and engaging.
• Monitoring our socials during work hours and collaborating on out-of-hours cover.
• Optimising our channels – you really know what makes an algorithm tick!
• Working from our strategy (crafted by Sunshine Vicky, who is a genius at this stuff) but having full creative freedom within it.

Who you are

• You’re a social media whizz with hands-on experience managing business accounts.
• You have a deep understanding of content trends, analytics, and engagement tactics.
• You live and breathe growth & optimisation – KPIs excite you!

• You’re knowledgeable – you’ve done this before and know your stuff.

Please evidence the above experience and skills on your CV in order to secure an interview.
