Are you a strategic thinker with a passion for digital storytelling and building vibrant online communities? We’re looking for a Senior Social Media Manager to lead and elevate the social presence of a premium, fast-growing direct-to-consumer brand in the luxury space.
As our client’s first dedicated social media hire, you’ll play a central role in shaping and growing their global social presence.

You’ll be managing content creation, community engagement, performance analytics, and agency relationships - all while championing the voice of the brand across key platforms including Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, and Facebook.

• Develop and implement a creative, data-driven social media strategy tailored to a global audience.
• Oversee daily social media operations: scheduling, publishing, and community management.
• Collaborate with internal creative, PR, and digital teams, plus external content partners.
• Produce long-form, episodic content to deepen storytelling and community connection.
• Manage agency and freelancer relationships, including budgets and deliverables.
• Partner with digital marketing to align organic and paid social strategies.

• Analyse performance data and report on KPIs to inform ongoing improvements.
• Act as a brand guardian, ensuring all content reflects the brand’s values and visual identity.
• Respond to customer and media inquiries via social channels in collaboration with internal teams.
• Explore partnership opportunities and think outside of the box to continue growing the community.

Who you are…

• Strong understanding of platform-specific content strategies, especially Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.
• Experience working with agencies/freelancers and managing content production budgets.
• Creative flair for storytelling and campaign ideation, matched with strong copywriting skills.
• Analytical mindset, with experience using tools to track, report, and optimise social performance.
