    • Partner with Marketing, Communications, Design and internal teams to align content with business priorities and campaigns.
    • Maintain a consistent brand voice and visual identity across our social channels.
    • Plan, launch and manage paid campaigns and boosted content across platforms including LinkedIn and Meta.
    • Build and optimize audience targeting strategies using demographic, interest-based, behavioural, lookalike and retargeting audiences.
    • Monitor campaign budgets and performance and continuously optimize for stronger results.
    • Track key metrics including reach, impressions, engagement, follower growth, CTR and paid campaign performance.
    • Prepare regular performance reports with clear insights and recommendations.
    • Use data to test and improve content, creative formats, targeting and campaign performance.
    • Stay current with platform trends, algorithm changes and evolving social media best practices.

What We’re Looking For

    • 1–3 years of experience managing social media accounts in a professional environment.
    • Hands-on experience with LinkedIn Campaign Manager and Meta Ads Manager.
    • Experience with audience targeting, segmentation and retargeting.
    • Strong copywriting and visual storytelling skills.
    • Experience creating and maintaining structured content calendars.
    • Familiarity with social media scheduling and management platforms such as Hootsuite, Metricool, Buffer or similar.
    • Good understanding of social analytics and the ability to translate data into actionable insights.
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
    • Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.

Nice to Have

  • Experience working in technology, aerospace, space, engineering or another technical industry.
  • Familiarity with CRM-based custom audiences and retargeting workflows.
  • Basic graphic design capabilities using Canva, Adobe Creative Suite or similar tools.
  • Experience with A/B testing content and paid creative.
