** Full time
** WORKING PATTERN:
** Our work style is hybrid, which involves spending at least two days per week, or 40% of our time, at one of our office sites.
** Why this role exists
** Social media is where customers, colleagues, policymakers, journalists and increasingly AI systems discover, interpret and share information about organisations.  In Group Corporate Affairs, insight shapes how we work. Performance data, audience behaviour, social listening and emerging trends help us understand what is landing, where risk is developing and how we can improve our content and channels.  We’re looking for a Social Media Analyst to play a central role in that work.

You’ll combine strong analytical skills with social media expertise and an understanding of how platforms and technology are changing. Your insight will help the team stay ahead, make better decisions and continually improve how we work.  As digital discovery evolves across social platforms, search engines and generative AI, you’ll help us understand how Lloyds Banking Group is found, represented and discussed in new environments.

Your work will help shape our reputation and communications strategy.  
** The opportunity
** Group Corporate Affairs (GCA) is an award-winning team providing the insight, counsel and challenge the Group needs to deliver its strategic objectives. We deliver high-quality communications for key audiences, helping Lloyds Banking Group be recognised for Helping Britain Prosper.  This is a specialist role at the heart of our social media operation. You’ll provide timely insight into content performance, audience behaviour, platform developments and emerging conversations, helping colleagues turn data into better decisions.  

Performance is central to how the team improves. Analytics already shapes how we plan, create, test and learn. You’ll strengthen that approach while bringing a broader view of what is changing across social media and what it means for GCA.  Working closely with another analyst and colleagues across Social, Digital, Media Relations and the wider Group, you’ll also help safeguard Lloyds Banking Group through effective monitoring, alerting and escalation.

You’ll use social media analytics tools to their full potential, looking beyond standard functionality and keeping pace with new developments.
