We are looking for a Social Manager who is passionate about being a champion for the role social can play for our brand partners.

Utilising proactive engagement to grow communities, identify cultural areas where the brand can authentically play, and turn these comments & moments into rewarding experiences.
Assisting and proactively bringing forward insights/behaviours/opportunities for ideation, jump-off points and creative executions
Creative at your core - ability to ideate quickly and knowhow around how to produce content
Culture - You have culture at the forefront of mind are able to find opportunities and trending moments for brands to be relevant
Reporting For Duty - You are able to distill large amounts of data and information into insightful reports for brand and insights teams
Understanding your Canvas - You know the different social channels and formats intimately and know how to adopt creative to fit them but also know how to push the boundaries to use them
Harness the power of influence - You know influencers & creators, how best to engage them and balance authenticity vs brand integration.
Work collaboratively with creatives, strategists, social folk and clients to deliver best practise
Sporting Passion - You live & breathe sport, understand how to leverage it authentically and can build calendar moments that make sense
To be in the running for this great role, you should have:
3-4 years of experience working in social, ideally from an agency background.
Confident communication skills to energetically engage internal and external stakeholders and articulate your thoughts
Experience working alongside creatives, strategists and producers to make work that pushes boundaries
