Job description

Want to help us build online communities from the ground up?

We're looking for a creative Social Media Manager to join our creative department and help take ownership of social output for a number of global clients.

The role in a nutshell

We're looking for a creative and culturally switched-on social expert to join our editorial team, and help us activate the influencer program of a major tech brand.

As part of the role, you'll be able to come up with social-first content that gets people talking, sharing, and excited about being part of a thriving online community.

What makes you stand out?

  • You instinctively understand why some posts go viral while others miss the mark.
  • Trends don't just catch your eye—you immediately think of creative ways to make them work for your brands.
  • You can simplify complex ideas into engaging, snackable content that stops the scroll.
  • You're proactive, always spotting opportunities and pitching ideas before a brief lands.
  • Internet culture is your playground—you know your way around gaming drops, fashion trends, corporate news, and everything in between.
  • Your captions? They're sharp, witty, and make even niche topics shine.
Day-to-day you will...
  • Execute social strategies across major brands.
  • Work directly with clients to bring ideas from brainstorm to breakthrough.
  • Turn cultural moments into brand opportunities.
  • Brief influencers to create content on our brand's behalf.
  • Craft content that works hard across both consumer and B2B spaces.
  • Write sharp, engaging copy that makes complex ideas simple.
  • Stay ahead of trends while keeping content strategically sound.
You'll thrive here if...
  • You can work independently but love being part of a team.
  • You're calm under pressure and solutions-focused.
  • You're comfortable presenting to clients and handling feedback.
  • You move at internet speed but never sacrifice quality.
And back to us...
We are a global socially-led creative agency with unrivaled social media and influencer marketing expertise.

With 1,300 people in 19 offices spanning four continents, we deliver a global perspective to our clients in a time when social media is shaping culture.

We make ideas worth talking about. We understand social behaviours within online communities, cultures and subcultures. We help our clients reach the right people in a strategic, relevant and effective way.

At We Are Social we also love diversity of thought and experience. That's why we like to welcome the unique voices and talents that haven't been traditionally embraced by advertising.
