We’re looking for a Social Media Content Creator & Social Media Manager to join our creative advertising agency and become a key part of the team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who lives and breathes social. You’ll be creating content, managing client accounts, spotting the next TikTok trend before it’s everywhere, and turning ideas into content that actually gets people watching, engaging and sharing.
You’ll work across clients and industries, so no two days will look the same. One day you could be shooting content at a client site, the next planning a month of social content, editing TikToks in CapCut or jumping on a trend that’s just started taking off.
What you’ll be doing
- Creating engaging, platform-first content, with a particular focus on TikTok, Instagram Reels and short-form video
- Filming and editing social content using CapCut
- Keeping on top of TikTok, Instagram and wider social trends and understanding how to adapt them for different brands
- Developing creative ideas and content concepts for clients
- Managing multiple client social media accounts from planning through to execution
- Building content calendars and scheduling posts
- Writing captions and social copy that fit each brand’s tone of voice
- Liaising directly with clients and understanding their objectives
- Planning and coordinating content shoots
- Travelling to client sites across the West Midlands and beyond when required
- Monitoring content performance and using insights to inform future content
- Working closely with the wider creative and account management team
What we’re looking for
You’ll be someone who is creative, commercially minded and genuinely plugged into social media.
You should have:
- Strong experience creating social-first content, particularly TikTok and Reels
- Excellent CapCut editing skills and a good understanding of short-form video
- A strong understanding of current social media trends, formats and platform behaviour
- The ability to turn a trend into content that feels relevant to a brand rather than simply jumping on a bandwagon
- Experience managing social media accounts and content calendars
- Strong organisational and project management skills
- Confidence communicating and building relationships with clients
- A good eye for filming, framing, pacing and what makes content watchable
- Strong copywriting skills and an understanding of different brand tones of voice
- The ability to work independently, manage multiple accounts and hit deadlines
- A full UK driving licence and the ability to travel to client sites
You won’t just be given a list of posts to make. We want someone who can spot an opportunity, pitch an idea, get the camera out, edit the content and get it live.
You’ll be working with a varied portfolio of brands, giving you the opportunity to create everything from reactive TikTok content and trend-led Reels to more considered campaigns and brand storytelling.
Based in the West Midlands, you’ll primarily work remotely, with regular travel to client sites and shoots as required.
Pay: £14,040.00 per year
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Birmingham
