The Essentials

• Salary: £28,000–£38,000
• Location: Godalming, Surrey (Head-Office), Hybrid, and occasional trips into London
• Level: 1–3 years' experience
• Reports to: Marketing Creative Director

A Bit about the opportunity

This is a genuine ground-floor opportunity, three brands and a founder's platform, still being shaped, with real room for your creative fingerprints on how they look and feel.

• Serial founder: Our Founder has already built and run multiple businesses, including one with 10 years of trading history behind it, so you're backing proven experience, not a first-time bet
• Guided autonomy: real freedom in execution and ideation, working with our Marketing Creative Director to keep messaging and brand identity unified across accounts
• Startup energy: small, close-knit, collaborative and friendly, not corporate
• Built-in growth: a clear career path, a great step in owning social across every account, and building your own team as we scale
• It's about initiative: no need to tick every box, just be capable, hungry, and quick to learn

What You'll Do

Core of the role: ideas, strategy, and content that performs. Channel upkeep is part of it, but most of the energy goes into creating, strategising, and directing on-brand social content.

• Develop and execute a content strategy across the platforms best suited to each brand, including emerging platforms, to grow followers, engagement, and reach
• Plan, shoot, edit, and publish high-quality short-form video (Reels, Shorts, vlogs, and more), producing polished content quickly
• Monitor trends and cultural moments, and react quickly with relevant content before the moment passes
• Respond to comments and DMs, build relationships with followers, and collaborate with influencers and local partners
• Manage the full social media calendar end to end
• Analyse performance metrics (engagement, growth, conversions) using platform analytics and ContentStudio, and recommend improvements
• Produce employer branding content, competitor intelligence, and sales enablement content
• Track how our brands show up in AI search and recommendation engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews), not just traditional platforms
• Contribute strong content ideas in campaign and strategy meetings
• Use social media to build hype, grow engagement, and drive sales
• Support and encourage employee advocacy across the wider team
• Support day-to-day posting and channel management when needed

Who You Are

• 1–3 years in social, ideally agency or start-up background
• Hands-on: shoots and edits, not just briefs others
• Flexes across brand voices without losing your own
• Algorithm-literate
• Trend-fluent
• Pro-human, pro-AI: uses AI tools, but craft stays yours
• Self-directed and ownership-minded
• Wants the strategy seat, not just execution
• Experience working with multiple social media platforms based on target audience (Wether it be Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok or Facebook etc…)

The Stack



• Scheduling & planning: ContentStudio, Milanote and similar
• Creatives and creating: Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere Pro/Rush, Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator etc), Express, Firefly, CapCut
• AI-assisted: Claude/ChatGPT for scripts and captions assistance, Runway/Kling/Midjourney/Nano Banana for concept work
