Social Media Marketing Manager

Social Media Marketing Manager Full Time | Permanent | Hybrid (Office & Home) | Wakefield Salary range £31,000 - £36,000 We are looking for a Social Media Marketing Manager who knows how to turn content into growth. This role isn’t about posting for the sake of it or keeping accounts “ticking over.” It’s for someone who understands how to grow audiences intentionally, build founders’ personal brands, and generate real business results through social media.

What you will be doing You will take full ownership of social media performance across Instagram, Tik Tok and other relevant platforms, shaping strategy, planning and publishing content, and continuously optimising based on results. A key focus of the role is growing founders’ personal brands with clear intent, building engaged audiences that drive reach, leads and measurable business impact. You’ll experiment regularly, testing hooks, formats and creative ideas, analysing what resonates, and scaling what performs best.

You’ll also collaborate with the wider team on email marketing, Linked In and other outreach activity when required, contributing to a joined-up approach across channels. This is a hybrid role, with a couple of days per week based in the Wakefield office and the remainder working from home. It’s well suited to someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys moving quickly from ideas to execution.

This role could be a great fit if you:
Have proven experience managing and growing social media accounts, with examples of results you can demonstrate. Can think like both a creator and a marketer, balancing creativity with strategy and performance. Are confident analysing social media data and using insights to refine and improve content. Have strong written communication skills and can craft messages tailored to different audiences. Care more about outcomes (reach, engagement, leads and growth) than aesthetics alone.

Enjoy working in a fast-growing business where ideas are tested, refined and improved quickly. This is not a “post a few times a week and send a report” role. We’re looking for someone who takes ownership, pushes for growth, and wants to make a meaningful impact.
