Location: Hybrid (3 days office-based)
Type: Full-time | Permanent
Salary: Up-and-comer level – perfect for someone ready to make their mark
Sector: Bold, much-loved, consumer lifestyle brand
This is your chance to shape the social voice of one of the UK’s best-known consumer brands — and help define where it goes next.
We’re working with a major hospitality brand — a brand with real heritage and ambitious plans for the future. They’re growing fast and creating this brand-new role to supercharge their social media presence. The opportunity? Huge. That's why they’re looking for someone clever, creative and hungry – someone who’s already good and ready to be great.
The Role
You’ll be the brand’s dedicated social expert, taking full ownership of their social strategy and bringing it to life with content that makes people stop scrolling and start engaging.
You’ll:
* Shape the social content strategy
* Create content that’s on-brand, on-trend, and always engaging
* Own and grow community engagement, bringing warmth, personality and a human voice to the brand
* Run paid social campaigns, using insight and instinct to drive performance
* Work with in-house creatives and wider marketing to align messaging, campaigns and culture
* Have space to experiment, test and lead — this is your playground
This isn’t about just posting. It’s about creating a social presence with personality — and having the confidence to lead from day one.
About You
You’re already managing social channels, maybe at an agency or in-house with a consumer brand — and you’re ready to step into a role you can really own.
You might have food and drink or hospitality experience, or just be a full-on foodie who loves to discover the next big thing.
What you’ll need:
* Experience running social accounts for a lifestyle, food, drink, or culture-focused brand
* Sharp instincts for what works on social – you understand the difference between content and content that connects
* Confidence with both organic and paid – and the curiosity to always look for what’s next
* Natural storytelling skills – words, visuals, trends, tone
* A collaborative mindset – but happy to run with your own ideas too
Perks & Benefits
* Hybrid working – 3 days in the office
* 33 days holiday
* Discounted food, drink & accommodation across the brand
* Pension & life assurance
* Enhanced maternity & paternity pay
* Health cash plan and employee assistance programme
* Free on-site parking
* And most of all – a chance to build something from the ground up, with a team that values creativity, culture and community
