London | Automotive OEM
An exciting opportunity for a talented Social Media Manager to take ownership of the UK social presence for an emerging global automotive brand.
This is a highly creative, hands-on role for someone who understands how to make a brand relevant, recognisable and talked about across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and emerging platforms.
You’ll combine strategy with execution, creating engaging social-first content, developing creator partnerships and building communities while supporting brand awareness, vehicle consideration and lead generation.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for:
- Developing and delivering the UK social media strategy
- Managing day-to-day activity across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook
- Creating engaging short-form video, Reels, Stories, Shorts and campaign content
- Spotting cultural trends and turning them into relevant brand opportunities
- Developing social campaigns around new vehicle launches, events and partnerships
- Managing influencers, creators, social agencies and production partners
- Capturing and producing reactive content when speed and authenticity matter
- Building and engaging online communities
- Working closely with Brand, Digital, PR, Product, Retail and Events
- Using performance data to continually optimise content and campaigns
- Connecting social activity with website traffic, leads and wider commercial objectives
- Managing social and creator budgets, ensuring strong value and ROI
About You
We’re looking for someone with:
- 5+ years’ experience in social media, content or digital marketing
- Strong hands-on knowledge of TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook
- Excellent understanding of short-form video and social-first content
- Strong creative judgement and an instinct for what works on social
- Experience managing creators, influencers and agencies
- Excellent copywriting and communication skills
- Confidence interpreting social performance and audience data
- The ability to manage multiple campaigns and launches at pace
- A willingness to travel to shoots, vehicle launches, retailers and events
Automotive experience is strongly preferred, although exceptional candidates from technology, gaming, entertainment, fashion, sport, consumer electronics or other fast-moving consumer brands will also be considered.
The Opportunity
This is a chance to help shape the social personality of an emerging automotive brand in the UK, rather than simply manage an established corporate feed.
We’re looking for someone who is creative, culturally curious, commercially aware and genuinely hands-on.
