Hybrid jobs in Grande-Bretagne

Assistant Social Media and Influencer Manager - Co-op Funeralcare £37,000 to £41,500 plus excellent benefits (Work Level 6A)

Manchester city centre – in this role you'll work in a hybrid way splitting your time between home and the office (find out more about our hybrid working policy at https://jobs.coop.co.uk/hybrid-working-policy). In this role, you'll also travel/work outside normal working hours occasionally to attend shoots, events, etc.

We're looking for a creative and proactive Assistant Social Media & Influencer Manager to join our Funeralcare Marketing team and help us tell engaging stories about Co-op Funeralcare. As the UK's largest funeralcare provider, we're committed to providing a quality service, and you'll play a key role in making sure our clients have access to the information they need to say their best goodbye.

You’ll help us bring Co-op's values to life across our social channels, working on everything from paid campaigns and influencer collabs to community engagement and content creation. It's a varied role with loads of room to grow, experiment, and make a real impact. If you live and breathe social, love spotting trends before they go mainstream, and know how to turn a scroll into a stop - this could be your next move.

• Keep an eye on what competitors are doing and what's trending in the social world

• Experience creating content for platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Reddit

• A pension with up to 10% employer contributions
• Access to a subsidised onsite gym (at our Manchester HQ)

• Virtual healthcare including GP appointments, mental health support, nutrition and fitness advice
• 24/7 colleague support service
• Training and support for your development and career progression
