Job description

Job Title: Social Media & Content Creator

Location: Harlow, Essex - Office & site based

Salary: 28k - 35k Depending on Experience

Job Type: Permanent, Full

About us

SheaWorks is a fast-growing, family-run electrical and building services contractor working with some of the UK's leading property, managing agent and commercial organisations.

We are looking for a confident, creative and outgoing Social Media & Content Creator to join our team full-time.

We don't want corporate, boring social media.

We want someone who can capture the real personality behind SheaWorks - our engineers, our office team, the jobs we attend, the chaos, the laughs and everything that happens in between.

You’ll need to be confident both behind AND in front of the camera, full of ideas and happy to get involved.

One day you could be creating funny, relatable content with the office team; the next you could be heading into London to meet one of our engineers on site and film a day in their life.

What You'll Be Doing

You’ll take ownership of SheaWorks' social media presence and create regular, engaging content across platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Your role will include:

• Planning, filming, editing and posting social media content
• Regularly appearing in content yourself
• Creating funny and relatable office content with the SheaWorks team
• Travelling to jobs and meeting our engineers on site to capture real-life content
• Filming project transformations, behind-the-scenes footage and completed works
• Creating "day in the life" content with our engineers
• Coming up with challenges, trends, interviews and entertaining video ideas
• Creating educational content and simple electrical/property tips
• Interviewing engineers and team members on camera
• Keeping up with TikTok, Instagram and social media trends and adapting them for SheaWorks
• Producing Reels, TikToks, Stories, photographs and other short-form content
• Editing videos ready for posting
• Writing captions and scheduling posts
• Responding to comments and helping grow our online community
• Creating more professional content for LinkedIn alongside our fun social content
• Capturing company milestones, new starters, apprentices, training, team events and achievements
• Helping build the personalities of our engineers and office team online
• Tracking what performs well and creating more of the content our audience actually engages with

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for personality as much as experience.

You’ll ideally be someone who:

• Is naturally confident and not camera shy
• Has a good sense of humour
• Is comfortable approaching people and getting them involved
• Understands what makes TikTok and Instagram content entertaining
• Can spot content opportunities without constantly needing to be told what to film
• Is creative and constantly thinking of new ideas
• Can film and edit short-form video to a high standard
• Is organised enough to maintain a consistent content schedule
• Is comfortable working in a busy office environment
• Is happy travelling to sites across London, Essex and surrounding areas
• Can switch between funny, informal content and polished professional content when needed
• Understands that sometimes the best-performing content isn't perfectly polished - it's real, relatable and entertaining

Experience using platforms or software such as CapCut, Canva, Adobe, TikTok and Instagram would be beneficial.

Experience within construction or electrical services is not essential - we'll teach you that.

We'd much rather find someone with the right personality, creativity and understanding of social media.

The Opportunity

SheaWorks is a growing, family-run electrical and building services business with a large team of engineers working across London, Essex and surrounding areas.

There's always something happening.

We want someone to come in and make our social media feel completely different from the typical construction company.

We want people to follow SheaWorks even if they don't currently need an electrician.

We want to show the personalities behind the business, create content people relate to and laugh at, showcase the work our team carries out and build a recognisable online brand.

You’ll have a huge amount of creative freedom.

If you’ve got an idea and think it’ll work, we want you to try it.

Important

This is not a remote social media role.

A huge part of the job is being around the SheaWorks team, capturing spontaneous content and getting out on site with our engineers.

You’ll be based from our Harlow office and regularly travel to sites to create content.

You’ll also need to be comfortable appearing regularly on SheaWorks' social channels yourself.
