Content strategy and short-form video are at the core of this role.

You should already know how to run social accounts that perform, and be ready to go deeper on strategy, content production, and the data behind what works. You will have experience of photography and videography and be able to jump on trends aswell as plan campaigns in advance to promote specific products and services.

Social Media Executive - What Youll Be Doing

Content strategy developing platform-specific content strategies for B2C clients across Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, and B2B clients on LinkedIn. Each platform is different. Your strategies should reflect that.
Short-form video and Reels scripting, producing, and editing short-form video for Reels, TikTok, and LinkedIn. This is a core output of the role. You should be confident in front of the process and comfortable with the tools.
Content production creating and scheduling content across all platforms using Canva, CapCut, and similar tools. Quality and consistency are non-negotiable.
Content calendars building and managing monthly content calendars across multiple client accounts and coordinating with the wider delivery team to align social with broader campaign activity.
Community management managing comments, DMs, and engagement across client accounts in brand voice.
Performance reporting tracking and reporting on social performance using native platform analytics. Turning data into clear recommendations the client can act on.

Social Media Executive - What Were Looking For

1 year of hands-on social media management experience running accounts for a brand, agency, or clients. Content calendars, audience growth, and performance reporting should already be familiar territory.
