• Plan, create (copy), schedule, and publish content for the company and all partner brands.

• Post updates, respond to reviews, manage visibility.
• Perform basic SEO updates (metadata, alt text, structure).

• Produce monthly reports for each brand covering social, paid, email, website, and Google.
• Extract insights and provide recommendations, not just raw data.

• Monitor accounts daily and flag issues early (ad disapprovals, downtime, inbox spikes, etc.).
• Maintain a central digital asset library, organised, structured, up‑to‑date.
• Track trends, competitor movement, and algorithm updates.

• Work closely with brand, strategy, design, and project management teams.
• Contribute digital insights to pitch decks and proposals.
• Anticipate needs and take initiative, don’t wait for instruction.

• Hands‑on experience with:
  • Meta Business Suite
  • Google Ads
  • Tik Tok Ads Manager
  • Google Analytics (GA4)
  • Email platforms (Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Mailer Lite, etc.)
  • Shopify & Word Press
• Excellent communication and reporting skills.
• Strong multitasking and organisational ability.
• A portfolio, case studies, or examples of digital work are a bonus.

• Strong in both creative and analytical thinking, able to write, plan, optimise, measure, and improve.
• Comfortable managing multiple brands with very different tones, audiences, and objectives.
• Naturally proactive, you spot problems and solutions early.
• Highly organised and comfortable with pace.
