Social Media & Content Creator

Salary: 28,000 - 30,000 Full-time Permanent

Are you a creative social media enthusiast with a passion for producing engaging content? Do you enjoy bringing brands to life through social media, photography, video and compelling copy?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Social Media & Content Creator to join a friendly, creative marketing agency.

Working across a varied portfolio of established clients, you will play a key role in developing and delivering engaging social media content, helping businesses grow their online presence, connect with their audiences and strengthen their digital identity.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys being hands-on with content creation, understands what makes social media work and is confident turning creative ideas into effective campaigns.

The Role

Social media will be at the heart of this position. You will take responsibility for creating engaging, relevant and visually appealing content across a range of platforms, ensuring each client's brand has a consistent and compelling online presence.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Social Media Content Creation: Developing creative, engaging and on-brand content for a variety of social media platforms, including written posts, graphics, photography and video.
• Video Content: Filming, editing and producing short-form video content designed to capture attention and increase audience engagement.
• Social Media Management: Supporting the planning, scheduling and delivery of social media activity across multiple client accounts.
• Content Planning: Developing fresh ideas and contributing to content calendars, campaigns and wider social media strategies.
• Copywriting: Producing engaging, well-written copy for social media posts, e-newsletters and other digital marketing communications.
• Campaign Performance: Monitoring and analysing social media and digital marketing activity, identifying opportunities to improve engagement and campaign effectiveness.
• Client Relationships: Building positive relationships with clients, understanding their brands and helping bring their marketing ideas to life.
• Website Content: Updating and maintaining client websites using WordPress.
• Creative Design: Producing supporting marketing materials, including leaflets and other promotional collateral where required.

About You

We are looking for a creative and motivated individual who genuinely enjoys social media and has a good understanding of how to create content that people want to engage with.

You will ideally have:

• At least 12 months' experience in a social media, digital marketing or content creation position, either agency-side or in-house.
• A strong understanding of social media platforms and what makes content engaging.
• Experience creating and editing social media content, particularly video.
• Excellent written communication and copywriting skills.
• A creative eye, with the ability to develop fresh ideas and produce visually appealing content.
• An understanding of social media scheduling, content planning and campaign performance.
• Good organisational skills and the ability to manage several client projects simultaneously.
• Confidence communicating with clients and building effective working relationships.

Experience with Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, HubSpot, email marketing platforms and social media scheduling tools would be advantageous, although not essential.

Previous agency experience would be beneficial, but we are equally interested in candidates who have developed their skills within an in-house marketing team.

What's on Offer?

• Salary of 28,000 - 30,000, depending on experience.
• Full-time, permanent position.
• Hybrid working, with Monday to Thursday office-based and Friday working from home.
• Company pension.
• Private medical insurance.
• Life insurance.
• Company events.
• On-site parking.
• Bonus scheme.
