Job Summary

Own the social growth engine for multiple brands in the startup/scale-up space, shaping strategy, influencer/affiliate campaigns, and a people-focused leadership path that scales with the team.

  • Define and drive cross-brand social strategy, with end-to-end ownership from planning to performance across platforms.
  • Lead influencer and affiliate programs, building creator relationships that translate to measurable brand impact.
  • Develop junior teammates and collaborate with founders to align on bold social direction and execution.

Job Description

  • This role is instrumental to growing the social accounts of some really exciting brands within the startup and scale-up world.
  • This is not a junior or purely executional role. We’re looking for someone who can lead social for brands, not just manage calendars or come up with trending TikToks.
  • As a Social Media Manager at Brand Hackers, you’ll be helping multiple brands achieve genuine impact and commercial results from social media.
  • You’ll act as each brand's in-house Social Media Manager (but on a fractional basis, often 1-2 days/week per brand).
  • The brands will often be F&B, Consumer Goods, but sometimes lifestyle and luxury, too.
  • You should have a strong point of view on how brands should be using social media to cut through, and be able to articulate this, even if that means convincing a founder to totally change course.
  • Knowledge across all key social platforms is key, as is a good understanding of how brands should be approaching influencer marketing and affiliate marketing.
  • You should also be passionate about bringing up through the ranks the next generation of future social superstars, as this role will likely have direct and indirect reports as the team grows.
  • Flexibility and a diverse skillset are key: end-to-end ownership may be required depending on brand needs.
