This is a hands-on delivery role: you’ll create content, run our posting schedule, manage community, and support our influencer programme working with some of the coolest, most design-led creators out there.

You’ll be managed day-to-day by our Social Media and Influencer Marketing Specialist, learning from them while owning real execution. This is a great opportunity for someone with 1-2 years of experience who is already in the game, loves social, and wants to grow fast. You’ll ship daily and see your work drive the brand.

• Keep a consistent posting rhythm and brand voice across channels

Community management
• Manage community engagement: respond to comments, DMs, and mentions
• Build relationships with our audience and keep the brand responsive and human

Influencer support
• Support influencer outreach and deals: research, brief, and manage micro and mid-tier creator partnerships
• Work with cool, design-led, high-quality creators that fit the brand
• Manage product gifting and creator relationships end to end

Performance
• Track content and influencer performance, report what’s working
• Stay ahead of platform trends, formats, and emerging creators

What We’re Looking For

• 1-2 years experience in social media and influencer marketing at a consumer, fashion, lifestyle, or e-commerce brand
• Strong content creation skills: short-form video, static, copy, Canva, basic video editing
• Trend-aware and platform-native (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest)
• Comfortable with community management and a fast posting cadence
• Some experience with influencer outreach, briefing, and creator deals
• Hungry, proactive, ready to hit the ground running
• Good eye for design and brand aesthetics
• Bonus: AI image and video content creation skills

• Fluent English
