Job purpose, tasks and responsibilities
As our Social Media Manager, you’ll turn Phoenix’s expertise into market influence, and convert that influence into pipeline.
You’ll shape the creative direction of our social presence and develop content that reflects our authority as a trusted and influential voice in health & safety.
That means delivering high-impact, persona-led content and strategic engagement that leads to measurable commercial outcomes. You’ll also use modern tools and technology, including AI, to boost content quality, speed and insight.
You’ll be responsible for:
Social strategy & brand presence
• Shaping and delivering our social strategy across key channels
• Turning Phoenix’s expertise into clear, relevant, high impact content
• Owning the creative direction of our social presence
• Using modern tools and AI to boost speed, quality and insight
Content creation & channel management (LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram)
• Leading our LinkedIn presence with thoughtful, audience led content
• Creating and optimising video and longer form content for YouTube
• Showcasing culture and people on Instagram to support employer brand
• Ensuring every post has purpose, clarity and strong performance
Community, campaigns & industry engagement
• Engaging with key organisations, partners and industry bodies
• Supporting and amplifying webinars, product launches and campaigns
• Building relationships that strengthen our visibility and influence
Performance & continuous improvement
• Tracking what drives engagement, demand and pipeline
• Using insights (and AI where helpful) to refine and improve content
• Scaling what works and testing new ideas to keep content fresh
What’s the Best Thing About This Role
The autonomy! You’ll have the space to shape our voice, bring ideas to life and experiment with new formats, and you’ll be doing this for an established, market-leading name in health & safety!
What’s the Most Challenging Thing About This Role
Our audience expects clarity, authority and regular content that adds value. You’ll need to stay close to industry conversations, spot opportunities early and make smart decisions about what’s worth amplifying. It’s a role where you’ll constantly refine, test, learn and adjust.
To be successful in this role, you must have:
• Strong understanding of LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram dynamics in a B2B setting
• A commercial mindset with understanding of how content supports demand
• Excellent copywriting and storytelling ability
• Solid content creation abilities (design, video, visuals)
• An analytical mindset with the ability to translate insight into action
• Confidence contributing to industry conversations
• The ability to simplify complex technical topics into accessible content
To be successful in this role, it would be great if you have:
• Previous experience of working within Health & Safety
• Experience using tools such as HubSpot, Shield, or content scheduling platforms.
• Experience in video editing.
We know it’s not a skill, but the successful candidate must have permission to work in the role’s location by the start of their employment.
