🕓 Experience: 6-24 months in social media (agency, label, or artist management preferred)
About the Agency
A full-service social and creative agency working at the intersection of music and culture, helping artists, brands, festivals, and labels grow engaged online communities through storytelling and culture-led creativity.
The team lives and breathes music - from dance and indie to alt-pop - and believes great social isn't about selling, but about building genuine connections between fans and the brands they love.
The Role
We're looking for a passionate, detail-driven Social Media Specialist to help deliver best-in-class social content for some of the biggest names in UK and international music.
You'll work as part of a collaborative "pod" structure alongside a Senior Social Media Specialist, Account Director, and Strategist - planning, creating, and publishing content that truly engages audiences and grows communities.
This is a fantastic opportunity to flex your creativity, develop your strategic skills, and take real ownership of projects within a fast-paced but supportive environment.
Key Responsibilities
Build and manage weekly content calendars for assigned clients - curating (and occasionally creating) content, writing copy, and scheduling posts.
Write engaging, on-brand captions that connect with audiences.
Spot and pitch culturally relevant and platform-specific trends.
Take partial strategic ownership of client accounts, including ideation, planning, briefing, and analysis with strategist support.
Manage posting, tagging, and community engagement across social platforms.
Track and report on content performance, surfacing actionable insights.
Ensure all content aligns with platform best practices, tone of voice, and formatting guidelines.
Support senior team members with client comms and feedback rounds.
About You
You'll thrive in this role if you:
Are immersed in music culture - from artists and scenes to fan communities.
Live and breathe social media, with a strong grasp of TikTok, Instagram, and emerging platforms.
Are proactive, organised, and able to juggle multiple projects without sacrificing quality.
Love writing and curation - and know how to tailor tone and content to different audiences.
Are collaborative, curious, and eager to learn from strategists and creatives.
Have a sharp eye for visual consistency and attention to detail.
Excel in a fast-paced, creative environment and enjoy bringing big ideas to life.
