Qualifications

• 4 to 5 years experience in social media marketing, with demonstrable experience managing external agencies or creative teams.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
• Hands-on experience with LinkedIn, Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube is essential.

• Review agency performance regularly against agreed KPIs and deliverables; manage scopes, elevate issues, and get maximum value from every retainer.
• Spot when work should move in-house versus agency, and brief internal designers and videographers when speed matters.
• Set and implement social media campaigns aligned with marketing strategies and event milestones: launches, registration pushes, early-bird deadlines, and show days.
• Design and deliver targeted content across platforms to increase engagement, followers, and retention — including short-form video (Reels, TikTok, Shorts) built for each platform's algorithm.
• Maintain the voice of the brand in all posts and interactions. Ensure every piece of content has a purpose and meets the needs of the target audience.
