Social & Brand Marketing Executive

Location: Hybrid (Telford office 1-2 days per week + occasional shoot travel)

Reports to: Brand Marketing Manager

About the Role

We're looking for a creative, social-obsessed Social & Brand Marketing Executive to plan, create and deliver Different Dog's marketing content - across social, website, emails, and printed collateral

This is an exciting, hands-on role for a natural content creator and writer who loves getting stuck in. You’ll own our social channels end-to-end: planning the calendar and capturing content that feels authentic and relatable. You don’t need to be a professional videographer, but you do need to be comfortable picking up a phone to point-and-shoot content on the fly. Whether that’s filming behind-the-scenes moments, capturing our HQ team and office dogs, or pulling together social-native statics and carousels.

Equally important is your love for copywriting. You’ll write adaptable copy across every touchpoint, from punchy social captions to engaging blog posts, landing pages, and printed materials. As part of a close-knit team, you’ll also get involved in wider brand moments, supporting the Brand Marketing Manager with campaign planning and delivery, PR activations, brand partnerships, customer events and more!

We are a subscription-based B Corp™ delivering gently cooked, healthy food to over 20,000 UK dogs, and our customer reviews speak for themselves.

For high production campaigns , you will also work alongside our in-house creative team, including a videographer, to produce content.
• Copywriting & brand storytelling: Write clear, engaging copy that brings the Different Dog brand story to life. Adapt your style seamlessly across formats, including short-form social copy, promotional emails, educational website blogs, landing page messaging, and printed event or customer collateral.
• Performance analysis & optimisation: Track, analyse, and report on social media metrics and content engagement. Turn data insights into actionable learnings to continually refine our social strategy and creative direction.
• Brand marketing support: Assist the Brand Marketing Manager with wider brand priorities such as campaign management, PR initiatives, creative photoshoots, brand partnerships and live events as required.
