As a social expert, you'll know how to connect the brand to communities and culture through contemporary best practice and strategic thinking, instead of content that just adds to the noise. With solid experience (agency or in-house), you'll take briefs from insight to execution, backing ideas with trends and data.

From strategy and copy editing to campaign oversight and memes, you'll turn social trends into compelling content that truly impacts online fandom, and the culture around it.

What You'll Have Delivered Elsewhere

  2. Driven impact through effective oversight of long-term, mid-term and reactive content calendars aligning publishing cadence with brand goals and audience behaviour.
  3. Strengthened content effectiveness by partnering with the relevant creative/strategic leads on your accounts to develop actionable strategies and scalable playbooks.

  5. Maximised team performance by managing, mentoring, and empowering a high performing group of content creators and writers.
  6. Amplified brand presence by collaborating cross-functionally with creatives on large scale activations that drive awareness and engagement.
  7. Continuously improved content impact by applying strategic rigor, analysing performance, and optimising outputs based on data-driven insights.
What Else Are We Looking For?
  1. A decisive and insights driven social expert who thrives on turning ideas into action.
  2. Brings structure and clarity to fast-paced, multi-stream projects while fostering strong collaboration across teams.
  3. Known for generating impactful ideas quickly, making confident decisions under pressure, and consistently driving measurable results.
  4. Balances creative conviction with analytical thinking always focused on what works and why.
  5. Presenting to clients and internal teams on your content ideas with strategic insights, trends, and data that has been adopted.
  6. You will have skills from copywriting and editing copy to shooting TikToks and making memes.
