About us
New Wave Snacks is an ambitious UK snack company behind exciting brands including Me+ and Bliss. We're a small, growing team with exciting ambitions across retail, licensing and brand growth.
We're looking for a proactive and organised Freelance Social Media & Marketing Executive to become an extension of our team. You'll play a key role in growing brand awareness, engaging our community and helping turn great marketing ideas into reality.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing FMCG business where your ideas will be valued, you'll have genuine ownership and you'll play a real part in helping build our brands.
The Role
Your role will be to help grow awareness of Me+ through engaging social media, creative marketing campaigns and brand activations, while occasionally supporting projects across Bliss.
Working closely with our Brand & Creative Lead and Director, you'll help bring ideas to life-from creating engaging content and coordinating creator collaborations to supporting product launches, competitions and marketing campaigns.
Typical Projects You'll Work on
As a growing business, no two weeks are the same. The examples below reflect the variety of projects you'll have the opportunity to work on, with priorities naturally changing depending on campaigns, product launches and business needs.
- Creating, planning and scheduling engaging social media content.
- Coordinating creative marketing campaigns and helping bring ideas to life.
- Building relationships with creators and influencers, coordinating gifting and user-generated content.
- Organising competitions, product sampling and promotional activity.
- Identifying opportunities for brand collaborations and partnerships.
- Monitoring performance, sharing insights and recommending improvements.
- Researching consumer trends, competitors and emerging marketing opportunities.
- Contributing creative ideas to help grow brand awareness, engagement and product trial.
- Supporting wider marketing projects and new product launches as our brands continue to grow.
About You
You'll be organised, proactive and enjoy making things happen.
You'll thrive in a varied role, be equally comfortable creating social content one day and coordinating a marketing campaign the next, while enjoying being part of a small, collaborative team.
Ideally you'll have:
- Experience creating engaging content across social media platforms.
- Excellent organisational and communication skills.
- Confidence in building relationships with creators, influencers and brand partners.
- An eye for trends, opportunities and consumer behaviour.
- Experience using Canva, CapCut and social media platforms.
- An interest in AI and emerging marketing tools to improve efficiency and creativity.
Most importantly, you're someone who enjoys asking:
"How can we get more people discovering and buying our products?"
Why Work With Us?
Me+ is at an exciting stage of its growth, and we're looking for someone who wants to help build the brand alongside us.
As a small team, your ideas won't get lost in layers of approval. You'll have the opportunity to contribute creatively, take ownership of projects and see your work make a genuine impact as our brands continue to grow.
