Content Creator and Producer
FOAC Media | Fair Oak Air Conditioning | FOAC Group
Flexible Hours to Start | Paid Hourly | Major Progression Opportunity
Help Us Build FOAC Media From the Beginning
Fair Oak Air Conditioning is growing, and so are our ambitions for the wider FOAC Group.
We are looking for an ambitious Content Creator and Producer to work directly alongside our Founder and Directors and help us build something much bigger than another company social media account.
Our ambition is to create FOAC Media, an internal media and content operation responsible for building the online presence of our Founder, Fair Oak Air Conditioning and eventually the wider FOAC Group.
For the right person, this could develop from an hourly content role into the opportunity to lead and potentially become a Director and founding figure within FOAC Media.
We are looking for somebody who wants to build something with us.
The Mission
Initially, you will have two major objectives.
Build a strong personal brand around the entrepreneur behind FOAC.
We want to document the reality of building and growing the business, creating content around entrepreneurship, leadership, projects, decisions, investments, challenges, opportunities and the journey behind FOAC.
The aim is to build a genuine audience and use that platform to create relationships with customers, talented people, suppliers, partners, business leaders and other entrepreneurs.
Build Fair Oak Air Conditioning into one of the most recognisable businesses in our industry online.
We already have the projects, engineers, customers and stories happening every day.
We now need somebody who can turn them into content people actually want to watch.
As FOAC Group develops, you will increasingly help tell the bigger story of what we are building.
This Is Not a Conventional Social Media Job
You will not spend every day sitting behind a desk waiting for somebody to tell you what to post.
You will be inside the business.
One day you might be with the Director creating content around the day to day running of FOAC.
Another could involve a major installation, a customer project, visiting a supplier, a new investment, meeting another business owner, following the engineering team or capturing an important moment in the growth of the company.
Think business documentary combined with modern social media and personal brand content.
We want the content to feel genuine.
Real people.
Real projects.
Real decisions.
Real challenges.
Real growth.
What You Will Do
You will gradually take ownership of the complete content process.
Ideas → Create → Edit → Publish → Analyse → Improve
Your responsibilities will include:
- Working closely alongside the Founder and Director
- Developing the Founder’s personal brand
- Creating content around the day to day growth of FOAC
- Creating engaging short form content
- Developing longer form YouTube content
- Editing Reels, TikToks, Shorts and YouTube content
- Creating content around FOAC projects and installations
- Photography and visual content
- Developing strong hooks and storylines
- Creating recurring content formats and series
- Publishing and scheduling content
- Identifying trends and opportunities
- Monitoring performance and audience growth
- Understanding what works and developing more of it
- Helping establish the identity and direction of FOAC Media
Our platforms will include YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and Facebook.
We Want You To Become Autonomous
Initially, we will work closely together.
You will need to understand the Founder, Fair Oak Air Conditioning, our people, our standards and where we are trying to take the Group.
But we do not want to manage your creativity forever.
We want someone who eventually starts coming to us saying:
“There’s a story here.”
“We should create something around this.”
“That would make a great YouTube episode.”
“I think we could turn this into a series.”
“I’ve got an idea.”
We will provide the access, direction and goalposts.
Within those, we want you to have the confidence to create, experiment and take ownership.
Who Are We Looking For?
Potential matters more to us than having the perfect CV.
This opportunity could suit a:
- College leaver
- Graduate
- Self taught content creator
- Young editor or creative
- Freelance content creator
- Marketing or media graduate
- Someone already building their own social channels
- Someone looking for their first serious opportunity within content
You might have taught yourself editing through YouTube.
You might already spend your spare time creating TikToks, Reels or YouTube videos.
You might have a degree in media or marketing.
Or you might have absolutely no formal qualifications in content but have an exceptional understanding of what people actually want to watch.
We care about what you can create.
We are looking for somebody with:
- Creative instinct
- Strong editing ability
- An understanding of modern social media
- Storytelling ability
- Confidence
- Initiative
- Commercial awareness
- An interest in business and entrepreneurship
- A willingness to experiment
- The ability to work independently
- Genuine ambition
You do not need to know anything about air conditioning.
We can teach you the industry.
We are much more interested in whether you understand content, people, storytelling, brands and attention.
Flexible and Hourly to Start
We want to find the right person rather than simply fill a full time position.
The role will therefore initially operate on a flexible, paid hourly basis.
Some weeks may involve more time alongside the Director or out within the business. Other time may be spent creating, editing, publishing and planning.
This gives both sides the opportunity to work together and see what we can build.
For the right person, however, this is not intended to remain just another hourly content job.
The Bigger Opportunity
Our ambition is to build FOAC Media into a genuine part of the FOAC Group.
The person joining us now has the opportunity to be there at the beginning.
Potential progression could be:
Content Creator and Producer
↓
FOAC Media Lead
↓
Head of FOAC Media
↓
Director and Founding Lead of FOAC Media
This is not a guaranteed promotion based on how long you have worked here.
It is an opportunity for the right person to create the position for themselves.
If you demonstrate the creativity, commercial thinking, initiative and leadership to build FOAC Media, we want you to have the opportunity to grow with it.
Eventually, that could mean building your own team, developing the wider media strategy and taking responsibility for where FOAC Media goes next.
We do not just want somebody thinking:
“What do I need to post today?”
We want somebody who could eventually be thinking:
“How big can we make this?”
How To Apply
We do not just want a generic CV.
Show us what you can do.
Send us your CV along with anything you have created.
That could be your Instagram, TikTok, YouTube channel, portfolio, university work, previous client work or simply something you created because you enjoyed making it.
Then answer one question:
If you had unrestricted access to FOAC for one week, what would you create?
You are not applying to join an established media department.
You are applying for the opportunity to help us build one.
Pay: £12.71-£25.00 per hour
Benefits:
- Company events
- Cycle to work scheme
- Discounted or free food
- Gym membership
- Work from home
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Southampton
