We're looking for a talented Social Media Manager to join our team and manage the online presence of independent music artists.
This is a freelance, long-term opportunity. Each artist requires approximately 10-19 hours per month, and as you demonstrate strong results, you'll be assigned additional artists.
What You'll Do
You'll be responsible for building and executing an artist's social media strategy from the ground up, including:
- Developing a unique brand identity for each artist.
- Creating mood boards and visual direction, including colour theory and colour grading references.
- Building storytelling strategies that strengthen the artist's identity and audience connection.
- Planning content around releases, campaigns and key moments.
- Using existing artist assets to create engaging content ideas.
- Writing clear creative briefs and directing designers and editors to produce content that matches the brand vision.
- Scheduling content across platforms and ensuring everything is delivered on time.
- Managing content calendars and coordinating campaigns around music releases.
- Growing accounts organically through platform best practices and trend awareness.
- Planning, launching and optimising Meta ad campaigns where appropriate.
- Monitoring performance and refining strategies based on analytics.
Communication & Availability
Communication is a key part of this role.
You must:
- Be responsive during normal working hours on every working day.
- Be available to communicate with our team and artist promptly when needed.
- Meet agreed deadlines consistently, particularly around music releases where timing is critical.
- Keep projects organised and provide updates without needing to be chased.
If you're passionate about music, understand how to build artist brands, and know how to turn great music into engaging social media content, we'd love to hear from you.
