Requirements

The Opportunity

Are you obsessed with music culture and the internet?

Do you instinctively know what’s trending before everyone else does?

Are you as excited by a perfectly timed meme or TikTok as you are by bigger creative ideas?

We’re looking for a Social Media Manager to join our team supporting a major entertainment account across music and podcasts.

This is a hands-on role for someone deeply immersed in social culture, from TikTok trends and creator communities to fan discourse, Reddit threads, Discord servers and the conversations shaping music and entertainment online. You’ll know how audiences behave across platforms, what makes content travel, and how brands can show up authentically in culture.

You’ll lead the day-to-day editorial output for UK social channels, working across ideation, content creation and publishing. From reactive memes and lo-fi social content to bigger campaign concepts, you’ll help create work that audiences genuinely want to engage with.

We’re looking for someone highly creative but equally organised, able to move at the pace of social media while maintaining a strong eye for detail.


What You’ll Have Delivered Elsewhere

  • Lead day-to-day social content planning, creation and publishing across channels
  • Experience ideating reactive and proactive content based on trends, audience behaviour and community insights
  • Created social-first content, including short-form video, copy, memes and platform-native formats
  • Experience writing, editing and refining copy tailored to different platforms and audiences
  • Overseen community management and helping shape the tone of voice across channels
  • Monitored conversations, fandoms and cultural moments relevant to music, podcasts and entertainment
  • Identified opportunities for the brand to participate in culture in authentic and engaging ways
  • Worked closely with creatives, strategists and client teams to develop and deliver content
  • Managed approvals and ensuring content is delivered accurately and at pace
  • Tracked performance and using insights to iterate and improve content output
  • Supported client relationships and contributing to client-facing conversations where required

What Else Are We Looking For?

  • Experience in managing social channels for brands, publishers or entertainment clients
  • A deep understanding of social platforms, trends, creators and internet culture
  • A genuine passion for music, podcasts and entertainment
  • Strong copywriting and editorial instincts
  • Experience creating content for TikTok, Instagram and emerging platforms
  • Comfortable shooting and editing lo-fi social content natively for platforms
  • Highly organised and confident, managing multiple fast-moving workstreams
  • A proactive mindset with the ability to identify opportunities independently
  • Experience working in fast-paced, reactive social environments
  • Strong understanding of platform best practices and audience behaviours
  • Collaborative, curious and excited to work as part of a growing team
