The role
We’re looking for a Junior Social Media Content Creator to join our marketing team and help bring Aardvark Jewellery to life across social media.
This hands-on creative role will see you become one of the faces of Aardvark, producing engaging short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. From developing and scripting ideas to filming, presenting, and editing, you’ll be involved throughout the entire creative process. Completed content will be delivered to the Head of Social Media for inclusion in the wider content calendar, helping us grow our online community, strengthen the Aardvark brand, and connect with customers in an authentic, entertaining, and relevant way.
A strong awareness of emerging trends will be key, alongside the ability to turn ideas into content that feels right for each platform, our audience, and the Aardvark brand.
What you’ll be doing
Working closely with the Head of Social Media and the wider marketing team, you’ll:
- Create social-first video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts
- Confidently present content on camera as one of the faces of Aardvark Jewellery
- Develop, script, film, and edit content from the initial idea to the final, ready-to-publish video
- Adapt content and creative approaches for different social platforms
- Identify relevant trends, cultural moments, and reactive content opportunities
- Contribute ideas during creative planning sessions and present new concepts to the team
- Work with our sales team and company owner to understand our customers, products, and commercial priorities
- Review content performance and use insights to improve future videos
- Help maintain a consistent brand voice and visual identity across our social channels
- Support the wider marketing team with campaigns and administrative tasks when required
- Attend occasional events or filming sessions outside standard working hours, where required
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
