Global Social & Content Director – Client Side | Maternity Cover
Fixed-Term Contract | 4 Days Office / 1 Day Home
A brilliant opportunity for a senior agency-side Social Director, Digital Director or Head of Social looking to make the move client-side and take ownership of social and content across a large international organisation.
We’re looking for an experienced Social & Content Director to join a global marketing team on a fixed-term maternity cover contract.
This is a senior but hands-on leadership role, owning paid and organic social and content strategy across multiple international markets, while leading and developing a geographically dispersed digital team.
You’ll have the opportunity to take the breadth, pace and strategic thinking of an agency environment and apply it client-side — owning the strategy, building capability in-house and seeing the longer-term impact of the work.
A key focus will be building a social media centre of excellence, driving the transition of organic social activity in-house and ensuring social and content delivers against brand awareness, engagement, commercial and customer objectives.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits

- Developing social and content frameworks that can be effectively adapted across different local markets
- Working closely with senior leadership and marketing teams to align social activity with commercial priorities
- Optimising paid and organic campaigns against performance and ROI
- Building a social media centre of excellence and helping bring organic social capability in-house
- Establishing best practice, guidelines and policies across social media, including online safeguarding and crisis management
- Reporting on KPIs across brand awareness, engagement, ROI and retention
- Identifying new digital engagement opportunities beyond traditional social channels
- Advising senior executives on their own social presence, including LinkedIn
- Exploring and implementing AI tools across the function, including chatbot and AI copy applications
