The Role and the Team

We’re looking for a Social Media & Community Manager to lead our day to day social media output and community presence. You'll make sure our channels are consistently engaging, member-first, and commercially effective.

This role sits in the Brand & Communications team and blends strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. Reporting into the Head of Social & Community, you’ll drive meaningful engagement across Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok and Linked In, while proactively connecting with frontline workers, partners and communities across third-party platforms and forums.

The ideal candidate brings strong social media experience and knows how to show up where frontline worker communities are most active online. They’ll understand how social can build advocacy, unlock insight, and help drive wider brand and business goals.

• Manage day-to-day social media output, ensuring content is platform-native and optimised for engagement

• Write clear and engaging copy for posts tailored to each platform and with frontline workers in mind

• Test new formats and approaches to drive engagement and growth

• Alongside the rest of the social team, stay ahead of platform updates, trends and algorithm changes

• Monitor trends, sentiment and emerging conversations within Facebook Groups, Reddit and forum communities, feeding insight back into content, product feedback and partnership opportunities

• Using analytics tools, track and report on key social and community metrics (e.g. engagement, sentiment, reach and audience growth), linking activity back to business outcomes

• Work with teams across brand, partnerships, product and campaigns to ensure community insight informs messaging, offers and launches

• Collaborate closely with Member Services to ensure a consistent, high-quality member experience across social responses, community forums and 1-1 touchpoints

• Work closely with the Content Marketing and Design teams to brief and/or create social assets when required

• Provide day-to-day guidance and support to the Senior Social Media Executive

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience developing and delivering social media content across multiple formats and platforms, ideally within a membership or consumer brand

• Strong understanding of platform cultures, trends and audience dynamics

• Understanding of community dynamics and how to drive engagement, trust, advocacy and retention across social platforms and community forums

• Ability to write compelling, brand-tailored copy that feels native to each platform

• Data-driven mindset, with experience tracking performance and using insight to optimise activity and influence strategy

• Experience working cross-functionally with marketing, partnerships and customer or member operations teams

• Strong organisational and project management skills, able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
