The secret ingredient? You
Paid social content is central to how SimplyCook acquires and connects with new customers. We’re looking for a talented Content Producer to help bring that content to life.

You’ll be involved from idea through to final export – helping develop concepts, running shoots, and editing content optimised for platforms like Meta, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
You’ll play a key role in creating engaging, high‑performing short‑form content that helps us test, learn, and scale the creative that drives customer growth.
