Social Media Manager

Social Media Manager (Content & Community Management – Associate Partner)
Location: Manchester (18 Lower Byrom St) & Hybrid
Commitment: Full-time (5 days per week)
About the Role

Are you a social native and a natural-born creator? We are looking for an Associate Partner to act as the vital bridge between our clients and our strategic partners. In this multifaceted role, you will think up big ideas, shoot and edit platform-native content, and obsess over channel optimisation to grow thriving brand communities.

You will have real ownership over performance, work closely with a cross-functional marketing and social team, and help shape our clients' online presence from ideation straight through to execution.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

Content Creation: Produce cutting-edge, platform-native social content (ideating, shooting, and editing on your phone or other equipment).

Community & Conversation: Manage day-to-day engagement and conversations for a diverse range of consumer-facing clients.

Strategy & Growth: Work with Partners to set growth strategies, spot trending moments, and find scaled opportunities to create brand fame.

Scheduling & Optimisation: Handle content scheduling at optimal frequencies, analyse performance metrics, and drive channel development.

Collaboration: Partner closely with our internal influencer, marketing, and client services teams to build UGC creator opportunities and nurture client relationships.

What We’re Looking For

Experience: 3–5+ years of experience in social media, community management, or content creation.

The Creator Skillset: Strong storytelling ability with confidence in writing, shooting, and editing your own content.

Mindset: A proactive, self-motivated, and flexible "can-do" attitude with an entrepreneurial spirit.

Communication: Exceptional client-facing and relationship-building skills, with the confidence to pitch and showcase your ideas both internally and externally.

Desirable Experience:
  • Experience using CXM tools like Sprout or Sprinklr.

  • An understanding of PR tactics or influencer marketing.

  • Experience taking content all the way from storyboarding and pitching through to execution.

Who We Are (Our Values)

At Open Partners, we deliver communications that are better for everyone—more relevant for consumers, driving better results for advertisers, and developing rewarding careers for our team. We look for team members who live by our core values:

  • Smarter: Aim high, train hard, embrace next.

  • ⚡ Faster: Learn fast, adapt fast, act fast.

  • Better: Think, say, and do what’s best.
