Full job description

Hybrid | Approx. 15 hrs per week |

We’re a growing creative agency working across trades, construction, hospitality, cafés, bars, and restaurants, and we’re looking for a proactive Social Media Manager to help manage both client and internal brand accounts.

This role suits someone who’s confident running day-to-day socials, enjoys strategy as much as execution, and can work autonomously while still collaborating with a wider team.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be responsible for managing social media across multiple brands and platforms, including:

  • Content scheduling & publishing across Instagram, Facebook & TikTok
  • Writing engaging, on-brand captions
  • Community management (DMs & comments)
  • Assisting with content strategy & planning
  • Reporting & analytics using tools like Metricool
  • Client communication
  • Asking clarifying questions
  • Gathering information (especially for hospitality clients under Knack)
  • Working closely with:
  • Editors & creators
  • Virtual assistants
  • Managing both client accounts and internal agency accounts
  • Contributing to content ideas and creative direction

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience managing social media accounts and campaigns
  • Ability to work proactively and autonomously
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Comfortable using social media tools and analytics platforms (Metricool preferred)
  • Creative thinker with solid problem-solving skills
  • Able to work well independently and as part of a team
  • Up to date with current social media and digital marketing trends
  • Junior to mid-level experience is ideal
  • Relevant experience is highly regarded but not a deal breaker
  • Ability to produce high-quality photos and videos is a bonus (not essential)

This Role Is For You If…

  • You enjoy all aspects of content creation and social media
  • You’re organised, reliable, and take ownership of your work
  • You like collaborating with creatives but can also run tasks end-to-end
  • You want hands-on experience in a real agency environment

How to Apply

Send through:

  • A short video intro about yourself
  • Examples of accounts you’ve managed
  • Your availability and experience level

We’re keen to bring the right person onboard and grow together.
