Job Summary

We are seeking a high-energy, strategic Social Media Manager to take full ownership of our social ecosystem. This is not a role for a "scheduler" waiting for instructions; we need a proactive strategist and creator who can manage the presence of 12 internal group brands and a growing list of external clients. You will be the architect of our digital voice—deciding what to post, why it matters, and how to turn followers into a community. If you thrive on variety, consistency, and the challenge of managing multiple brand identities simultaneously, this is the role for you.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and own the end-to-end social strategy for every account, including platform mix, cadence, and tone of voice.
Produce, schedule, and publish approximately 25 high-quality posts per week across LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, and YouTube.
Repurpose long-form content and recordings into platform-native assets that drive engagement.
Act as the brand’s voice by monitoring and responding to all comments and messages within 24 hours.
Manage online communities daily, including welcoming new members and sparking weekly discussions.
Deliver monthly performance reports for each account, providing data-backed commentary on reach, engagement, and growth.
Continuously audit performance to identify what is working and pivot strategies accordingly.

Requirements

Proven experience owning social media strategy, not just executing a pre-defined plan.
A strong track record of managing multiple accounts simultaneously (ideally in an agency environment).
Exceptional written English skills, capable of writing compelling copy and engaging in sophisticated community management.
Highly process-driven and reliable, with the ability to maintain a consistent output across various brands.
Comfortable working UK business hours and meeting strict weekly scheduling deadlines.
Experience in an agency setting managing diverse external client accounts.
Hands-on community management experience.
Client-facing confidence to present strategies and reports as the team expands.
