Social Media & Community Manager
Hiring: Social Community Manager (Gaming & Entertainment)
Contract: 6–12 months Location: London (hybrid)
Are you the person who always knows the latest meme before everyone else? Do you live on TikTok, X, Instagram, Reddit, and Discord? Are you passionate about gaming, internet culture, and creating content that people actually want to engage with?
We're looking for a Social Community Manager to lead reactive social and cultural content for two of the world's most iconic gaming brands. You'll be the driving force behind identifying trends, spotting cultural moments, and turning them into engaging, on-brand content alongside a talented team of copywriters and content creators. If you thrive in fast-paced environments and know exactly when to jump on a trend—and when to let it pass—we'd love to hear from you.
