Enough about us, what’s the role?
carloans365 is looking for a hands-on Social Media Manager to own our social channels day-to-day. This is a broad, creative role for someone who can both make content themselves and grow an engaged community around our brand – from planning and posting through to replying to comments and running influencer and partnership campaigns.
You’ll be working closely with the Head of Digital to shape how we show up across social. It’s a great opportunity for someone who wants ownership, variety and the chance to build something.
Responsibilities:
Social channel management
- Own and manage our social media channels day-to-day across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn
- Plan, schedule and publish content in line with our marketing calendar and brand tone of voice
- Keep on top of platform trends and formats, spotting opportunities to keep our content fresh and relevant
Content creation & editing
- Create and edit content yourself – short-form video, graphics and copy – rather than only scheduling or briefing others
- Shoot and produce content in and around the Sale office, and turn ideas around quickly to react to trends
- Ensure everything is platform-native and consistent with our brand look and voice
Community management
- Manage and respond to comments, messages and mentions across all channels, building genuine engagement with our audience
- Foster and grow an active, positive community, and escalate issues or opportunities where needed
- Feed audience insight and sentiment back into content and wider marketing plans
Influencer & partnership campaigns
- Plan and manage influencer relationships and partnership / paid ad campaigns end to end – from outreach and briefing through to delivery and reporting
- Manage budgets, timelines and deliverables, and build strong working relationships with creators and partners
- Track performance and demonstrate the impact of campaigns on reach, engagement and results
Reporting & insight
- Monitor performance across channels and report on key metrics, using data to refine and improve what we do
What we’re looking for:
Essential
- Channel experience: proven experience managing brand social channels across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn
- Hands-on content skills: ability to create and edit your own content (video, graphics and copy), not just schedule it
- Community management: experience managing and responding to comments and building engaged online communities

- 20 days holiday + 8 bank holidays + 1 additional day off for your birthday
Benefits:
- A senior, high-impact role with real ownership and influence
