The Role:
We're looking for a social-first, culture-driven Social Media Manager who understands how fashion brands win on social. You'll spot trends early, turn them into premium, on-brand moments and lead social strategy across campaigns, drops and always-on content.
You'll work closely with the Head of Creative to develop social-first ideas and bring them to life - from concept through to execution - with the support of a wider marketing team.
Key responsibilities:
· Own and deliver the brand's social media strategy
· Lead social storytelling across campaigns, drops and cultural moments
· Develop social-first creative concepts with the Head of Creative
· Be hands-on with content creation (shooting, directing and editing)
· Lead campaign rollouts from idea to execution
· Stay connected to trends, creators and platform changes
· Translate trends into authentic, on-brand content
· Manage and mentor a Social Media Executive
· Own social calendars, reporting and performance insights
· Present results and recommendations to senior stakeholders
About you:
· 4+ years' experience in social media or social marketing
· Background in fashion, lifestyle or culture-led brands
· Strong experience creating short-form video content
· Confident using tools such as CapCut, InShot, VN, Lightroom or VSCO
· A strong creative eye with a passion for fashion and culture
· Comfortable working at pace in an always-on environment
· Confident, proactive and happy backing your ideas
What's on offer:
· A key role within a growing luxury fashion brand
· Direct exposure to founders and senior leaders
· Creative, collaborative working environment
· Competitive salary and benefits
· Flexible working hours
· Hybrid working (1 day per week from home)
