Bristol, United Kingdom KILROY Full time

Are you an energetic, detail-oriented individual with experience in event planning? Do you love creating fun and engaging content for social media? Are you looking for a varied and dynamic role that combines the two?

KILROY is looking for a Bristol-based Events and Social Media Coordinator to increase brand awareness and generate leads for our first ever UK retail store.

**About KILROY**

At KILROY, we believe that travelling the world and seeing different cultures make a better you, and therefore, a better world. We are passionate travellers and have helped backpackers venture to faraway places since 1946.

The KILROY Group is one of Northern Europe’s largest providers of youth and student travel services. We are market leaders in Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Belgium and the Netherlands, employing more than 400 people. In 2023, the KILROY Group is continuing its international expansion of the KILROY brand into the United Kingdom.

As our new Events and Social Media Coordinator, you will be responsible for organising events that attract students and young travellers and generate leads for the KILROY UK sales team. These events will be a mix of internal events, such as in-person travel talks held at our Bristol store, as well as external events, including Fresher’s Fairs at universities held nationwide.

You’ll also take ownership of our social media channels, creating engaging content with a view to increasing our follower count across Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.

This role is primarily based in our Bristol store, though travel around Bristol and other parts of the UK will be required to develop KILROY's nationwide annual events plan.

You’ll be reporting to the UK Marketing Manager.

- Promoting events using organic and paid channels, under the supervision of the marketing manager
- Liaising with the design team in Copenhagen HQ to generate creative to promote events and using tools such as Photoshop to edit existing templates
- Creating content for our social media channels - this will include a mix of images and video
- Working closely with the sales team to ideate topics for events, organise attendance at travel talks and feature the team in our social media content

**Who we’re looking for**
- You’re an outgoing, confident, enthusiastic individual that loves interacting with new people and presenting to an audience
- You’re passionate about travelling and share our belief in the power of travel for young people
- You have experience planning and hosting in-person events
- You’re detail-oriented and organised, and able to manage multiple responsibilities at once
- You’re proactive and eager to find new opportunities to promote KILROY through events in the local community and further afield
- You love creating content for social media and know your way around Instagram, TikTok and Facebook and the creative tools they provide
- You’re happy to travel around Bristol and other parts of the UK to host events
- You’re comfortable with working occasional evenings and weekends for time off in lie
- You have a full driver's licence and are happy to drive to events when required

**What we offer**
- A young, fun environment with friendly and sociable colleagues
- The opportunity to make your mark in a new role for KILROY UK
- Social gatherings - in Bristol and usually once a year in Copenhagen
- Competitive salary
- Travel perks
