Salary: £25-27k (depending on experience)
Are you an experienced, talented, social media maestro up to date with the latest trends?
Are you eager to join, and learn from, a Marlow based social media team?
Do you meet our non-negotiables?
* Experience managing professional social media accounts for clients (no, we’re not looking for someone with a thriving Instagram account who fancies having a crack at a role in Social Media).
* Overflowing with unique, creative social media ideas.
* Eager to work with a team of people to help deliver your ideas (we’re a collaborative bunch here so we’re not looking for a one-(wo)man-band).
* A portfolio showcasing enviable social media skills & impactful results.
Then you could you be the person we’re looking for.
Background and company culture
BWP is an award winning destination marketing agency. We elevate brands with impactful, creative strategies that bring people to places to achieve commercial growth. Our work supports the growth of household name destinations like Trafford Centre, Lakeside Shopping Centre and Livingston Designer Outlet.
This is our website https://bwpgroup.com/. Pretty much everything we do is on there so it’s a good place to start if you are interested.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/aliciadrummond1994/ <---- this is Ali. She leads BWP’s social media team. As well as being mad about marketing, crazy about content and savvy at social, she’s also big into hiring people who will work with clients as if they are in-house and manage their own time effectively. She’s not employed to micro-manage.
Everyone who works at BWP enjoy the standard benefits you’d expect - a competitive salary (in this case £25-27k+); 25 days paid holiday plus bank holidays and an extra day for your birthday; and a pension scheme. Plus, we also offer:
* Hybrid working – everyone at the agency enjoys three days collaborating and building strong working relations with colleagues in our Marlow town centre offices and two days working from anywhere.
* Company bonus scheme (discretionary) – if BWP does well, so do you. Our Account Executives can get up to 4% of annual salary as a bonus.
* Bespoke Personal Development Plans and the mentoring and support you need to pave your way to Senior Account Executive and beyond.
* A busy social calendar with regular company socials
* A culture of appreciation, reward, and recognition with monthly and quarterly awards and celebrations.
* Company wellbeing programme including a free counselling service as needed.
What are we looking for from you?
We’re only interested in speaking to people whose CVs and portfolios showcase:
* Demonstrable experience of producing, scheduling and delivering social media content and ideas for a business brand/community.
* Creativity – you are brimming with unique, creative and engaging content ideas.
* Client management skills – you are comfortable in a client-facing role, you enjoy building relationships and can talk clients through what you’re doing in a clear, concise & friendly manner.
You’ll stand out if you can prove you are:
* Accurate and detail oriented. We assume you’ll put the same effort into ensuring your CV/portfolio is grammatically correct and typo-free as you put into your social content. You have been warned!
* A collaborator – you produce your best work working alongside creative teams, content creators and external partners. (Given the collaborative environment we foster in the agency, we’re not looking for someone who wants to do it all.)
* A lifelong learner, passionate about keeping up to date with current social trends and sharing these with the wider team. We want to create unique content and that means staying ahead of the curve and trying new things.
