Group Lotus is a leading sports car manufacturer with a 75-year long history of iconic designs, groundbreaking engineering and legendary victories on the F1 track. Today we are transforming into a truly global performance car brand focused on the electrical future. In 2022 we launched the Eletre, the world’s first all-electric hyper-SUV, and in 2023 Emeya, our fully-electric Hyper-GT.

Lotus Cars builds world-class, high-performance and lightweight sports cars that are sold all around the world.

This role will shape how the brand shows up across digital channels globally, driving innovative content formats, strengthening audience engagement, and ensuring a consistent, high-quality editorial voice across all touchpoints.
You will combine strategic thinking, editorial leadership, and hands-on delivery to create impactful digital experiences that enhance brand perception, deepen community engagement, and support commercial outcomes.

* Oversee integrated digital campaign development in collaboration with PR, marketing, product, engineering, and retail teams
* Ensure global consistency through effective localisation and translation governance across markets

* Analyse content performance, audience behaviour, and sentiment to continuously refine editorial and content strategy
* Identify emerging cultural, platform, and digital trends and translate them into meaningful brand opportunities
* Ensure all digital output meets the highest standards of editorial quality, visual consistency, and brand integrity
What you'll bring:
* Proven experience in digital, editorial, content, or digital project leadership roles within luxury, automotive, premium lifestyle, or similarly brand-led environments
* Demonstrated ability to deliver high-impact digital content strategies and campaigns that drive engagement, audience growth, and brand elevation
* Strong editorial judgment with the ability to define and maintain tone of voice across multiple markets and platforms
* Experience creating or scaling innovative content formats such as livestreams, serialized content, or creator-led storytelling
* Ability to translate complex technical, engineering, or product information into clear, engaging, audience-focused narratives
* Strong understanding of digital platforms, content ecosystems, audience behaviour, and community dynamics
* Experience managing agencies, creators, and cross-functional stakeholders in complex, fast-paced environments
* Strong project management skills with the ability to deliver multiple priorities simultaneously with precision and accountability
* Analytical mindset with experience interpreting performance data and using insights to optimise content and campaigns
* Deep awareness of digital culture and emerging trends, with the ability to apply them thoughtfully rather than reactively
