Social Creative / Content Creator

Social Creative / Content Creator
London (Hybrid) | Up to £50k | 3-4 years' experience

The Role

This is a hands-on, ideas-to-execution role for someone who is chronically online (in the good way) and instinctively understands how content travels across platforms.

You'll take ownership of 3 core brands within the FMCG world, while supporting across others when needed. Each brand has a distinct tone and audience, so you'll need to confidently switch gears creatively.

This is a culture-led role. Expect:

• Reactive content

• Trend-led execution

• Social-first storytelling

• Short-form video

• Longer-form episodic concepts

• Serious storytelling alongside playful moments

You'll be both the thinker and the maker - coming up with ideas, shooting, editing and sometimes being in front of the camera.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing culture-led, reactive and trend-driven ideas across multiple brands

• Turning briefs into social-first creative that feels native to each platform

• Shooting and editing primarily phone-led content (lo-fi, native, fast turnaround)

• Creating both short-form content and occasional higher-production pieces

• Rough-cut editing (no need for full Adobe suite mastery - scrappy, fast execution is key)

• Confidently presenting ideas to internal teams and clients

• Jumping on trends quickly and articulating why they work for a brand

• Collaborating with strategy, account and paid teams to ensure content performs

• Occasionally appearing in content where appropriate

• Low-fi first: Social-native, phone-shot, reactive

• Rough edits are absolutely fine - authenticity > polish

• High-production shoots may happen, but this is not a "production house" role

• Platform-native thinking across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts (and beyond)

Who They're Looking For

• 3-4 years' experience in social content (agency or brand side - open to both)

• Deep understanding of social trends, formats and creator culture

• A self-starter comfortable in a start-up / scale-up environment

• Confident enough to have opinions - and back them up

• Comfortable juggling multiple brands and tones simultaneously

• Articulate, proactive and commercially aware

• Happy to be on camera when required

• Someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment without rigid structur
