Job description

We Are Social is a global socially-led creative agency with unrivalled social media expertise. With 1,300 people in 17 offices spanning four continents, we deliver a global perspective to our clients in a time when social media is shaping culture.

We’re proud to be a multi award-winning agency, with Cannes Lions, One Show, Webby and Shorty Awards, to name but a few. Our most recent work has seen us help Pepsi, Meta and Adidas deliver some of their biggest and most innovative campaigns to date, from breaking into the metaverse to smashing records on TikTok.

As well as creating for clients, we help educate the wider industry. Our Instagram publication The Feed tracks culture at the speed of social. 6,500 people registered or tuned into our events last year, and our reports garnered more than 20 million views.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a highly skilled, gaming-obsessed social content creator to take on the day-to-day creative output for Activision Blizzard and its stable of genre-defining titles, including Call of Duty, World of Warcraft and Diablo.

The brand's channels are at the cutting edge of gaming social, so we need a true TikTok native who’s on the pulse of what matters to gaming audiences online – as knowledgeable about the social trends shaping their feeds as the gaming conversations on their minds.

This person needs to be a hands-on content creator with a Swiss army knife of skillsets: excited about ideating ideas big and small, turning images into memes, filming and editing hilarious TikToks, writing sharp captions, and capturing BTS, as well as comfortable working directly with clients.

What You’ll Have Delivered Elsewhere

• Created fun, engaging content for one of the world's biggest gaming publishers.
• Responsible for daily content creation (with TikTok, Instagram and YouTube as priority channels), delivering social and creative excellence.
• Ideating at speed, turning thoughts into concepts into social posts – which genuinely matter to our gaming-obsessed audiences.
• Pulling clips and moments from games/trailers and turning them into witty/sharp/funny social posts.
• Finding and providing gaming community, industry and social insights to drive creative relevance.
• Levelling up the social presence for some of the most culturally relevant, exciting games in the world.
• Contributing to creative brainstorming sessions.
• Supporting the Senior Content Creator and Senior Social Media Manager with other social listening, insights and creative ideation.
• Creating design briefs and working with internal videographers/designers to deliver a steady drumbeat of exceptional, social-first video content.
• Contribute to the daily newsroom within the department.

What Else Are We Looking For?

• An energetic and innovative social creator, either from a content creator or creative background, with experience in creating fast-paced social content for brands.
• This person lives for the FYP and viral memes. They’re fully immersed in gaming content and communities on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit and beyond, as well as everything else bubbling up online.
• Have a TikTok/Reels-first mindset when it comes to social, getting as excited by low-fi internet-y content as they are by bigger creative concepts. Nothing would excite them more than that love for gaming culture into a job, making fast-paced, unfiltered content.
• Being comfortable in front of a camera is also a plus.

Our Culture and the Nice Stuff

We are transparent about the changes that are needed, we are focused on making real strides, both internally and within the industry and we strive to truly be a workplace that represents, supports and advocates for ALL.

So let’s get to the good stuff, we offer all those things you would naturally expect; 25 days holiday, pension scheme & life assurance. But what we love most is connection, so we have our WAS Passport and Work From Anywhere schemes which allow you to truly connect to colleagues all over the world!

But what’s life around here really like day-to-day? Well, we ask our people regularly what they think about us/their role and here are some of the most common things they say:

• I value my manager we have a good relationship
• We love to ‘get social’ with the people I work with
• Trusted to get on with the job, without ‘micro-management’!
