Social Media Marketing Manager [205912]

We’re looking for an experienced Social Media Marketing Manager to join a fast-paced, high-energy marketing team at an exciting stage of growth. This is a small, agile team working on one of the most dynamic and high-profile projects in the business — finding fresh, culturally relevant ways to market a cutting-edge AI product. This role is social-first . You’ll take a lead role in shaping and executing social media activity, ensuring the brand shows up in authentic, engaging and culturally relevant ways across platforms. Alongside social, you’ll support brand partnerships and cultural activations that bring the product into everyday British life — from moments like Movember to podcasts, entertainment and lifestyle collaborations. This is a highly hands-on role, ideal for someone who has owned social channels end-to-end and thrives in fast-moving environments. You’ll work closely with internal teams (Creative, Legal, PR and Product) and external agencies and partners to deliver standout, on-brand campaigns.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and lead social media execution across key platforms, from planning through to delivery and optimisation.
• Develop and deliver culturally relevant social content that drives awareness, engagement and conversation.
• Work closely with Creative, Legal, Social, Product and PR teams to deliver campaigns at pace.
• Manage external social agencies, creators and partners to ensure high-quality, on-brand output.
• Support brand and cultural partnerships, ensuring strong social amplification and storytelling.
• Oversee social content calendars, asset production and approvals.
• Review and manage marketing assets, ensuring brand consistency and legal compliance.
• Adapt quickly to shifting priorities and confidently jump into new projects in a fast-moving environment.

About You

Proven experience in social media management or leadership, ideally as a Social Media Manager, Social Lead or Head of Social (particularly within a smaller or scaling business). Strong hands-on execution skills — comfortable creating, commissioning and delivering social content rather than just setting strategy. Experience managing multiple stakeholders in an evolving, sometimes ambiguous environment. Confident working cross-functionally and bringing together teams across different disciplines. Experience managing external agencies, creators or influencers. Passionate about AI and technology, with a clear understanding of how products fit into everyday life. Comfortable operating in a start-up or scale-up environment with limited structure and rapid growth. Strong creative instincts and an ability to connect a tech brand to wider cultural conversations.

Preferred Background

Previous roles such as Social Media Manager, Social Lead, Head of Social, or Marketing Manager with a strong social focus. Experience marketing consumer tech or AI-powered products. Exposure to high-profile cultural moments, influencer activity or consumer brand collaborations. Experience in fast-moving tech environments is a plus. This role is open for a limited time. Next steps will be shared with shortlisted candidates in the next 48 hours. Due to the high volume of applicants, we may be unable to reply to each applicant individually. If you have not received a response, please assume that you have not been selected for progression to the next stage of the hiring process.
