Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and implement a comprehensive social media strategy to grow awareness, engagement, and community across platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn and YouTube.
• Lead the creation and development of engaging campaigns and creative content that aligns with Ottolenghi’s brand vision. Brief and collaborate with content creators to ensure high-quality, on-brand stills and video content optimized for each platform.
• Support content capture across Ottolenghi sites and events, contributing to the creation of stills and video content optimised for different platforms.
• Plan and maintain the social media calendar, ensuring consistent, timely posting while responding to trending topics and cultural moments.
• Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to deliver engaging campaigns, promotions and partnerships.
• Stay across trends, tools and emerging platforms to keep Ottolenghi’s content fresh and relevant.
• Lead community management - engaging with followers, responding to comments and messages in a timely, brand-appropriate manner, fostering meaningful interactions and relationships.
• Monitor and analyse performance across platforms using analytics tools, providing insight and optimising content accordingly.
• Support content capture and coverage at events and launches.

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in social media management, ideally within food, fashion, hospitality or lifestyle sectors.
• Are highly creative with an ability to translate ideas into compelling content.
• Content creation experience using native social platform tools like TikTok studio, CapCut and Instagram Edits. Adobe Suite is a plus.
• Forward-thinking and digitally curious - able to anticipate trends and adapt strategies.
• Confident writing and editing content for different platforms and audiences.
• A strong understanding of platforms, trends and best practices, with a sharp eye for visual storytelling.
• Confident communicator who can rally teams, drive deadlines, and build strong relationships both internally and externally, ensuring smooth coordination when capturing content on-site and during events.
• Skilled in using social management and analytics tools.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects independently.
