About the role
We’re looking for a creative, knowledgeable and passionate storyteller to take the lead on our social media presence at the National Galleries of Scotland. If you love creating engaging content that connects, inspires and informs, and you know how to grow online audiences, then this could be the role for you.
As our Social Media Officer, you’ll create a diverse range of engaging content tailored to our target audiences, including short-form video, live video, static images, carousels, and text. You will plan, source, schedule, and evaluate content across all channels. You will also organize and host influencer events, coordinate partnership activities, and work on sector-wide collaborations.
Working closely with our Communications Manager and colleagues across departments, you’ll ensure our social media voice remains fresh, engaging, and on-brand. You’ll monitor and analyze engagement and growth, providing feedback and updating our social media strategy. In our small but dedicated communications team, you’ll be the go-to person for all social media activities, from promoting exhibitions to crisis communications. You will also ensure content accuracy and accessibility while staying informed on emerging trends, new channels, and best practices.
This role requires expertise in video editing apps, analytics, and the ability to transform big ideas into captivating content. You should have strong experience in organic and paid audience growth, an eye for detail, and a flair for visual storytelling.
