About TeesDance
TeesDance is the flagship charity for dance in the Tees Valley, accessible, meaningful and rooted in the communities we serve.
Since 2021 we've grown from a single programme into a registered charity working across all five boroughs, reaching 20,000+ people, investing £550k+ in local communities and unlocking a further £207k for local artists through match funding.
Overview of role
Every post, story and reel you create helps more people discover that dance is for them.
As our Social Media Coordinator, you'll be the friendly, consistent voice that turns our work with communities, artists and participants into content people want to watch, share and act on, bringing our mission and vision to life online.
THE ROLE
Working closely with the Marketing & Impact Lead, you'll turn our work with communities, artists and participants into authentic content that grows participation and celebrates local artists.
This is a chance to build a trusted, care-led online voice for a small, growing charity at a pivotal moment.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Brilliant candidates don't always look the same on paper.
Must-haves
- Experience creating and managing content on Instagram and/or Facebook (personal or voluntary experience counts too)
- A confident, engaging writing style you can adapt for different audiences
- Comfortable filming and editing short-form video on a phone, using CapCut or Canva
- A working knowledge of social media analytics, so you know what's performing well
- A genuine interest in, or connection to, dance, the arts or community work in the Tees Valley
- Well-organised and self-directed, able to plan and deliver content in one day a week
- A commitment to inclusive, accessible and care-led communication
- Comfortable using design tools such as Canva
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience working with a charity, arts organisation or small non-profit
- A recognised social media or digital marketing certification (HubSpot, Meta or Hootsuite)
- Experience with community management, replying to comments and DMs at volume
- Photography or videography skills beyond phone-based content
- Knowledge of the Tees Valley cultural and community landscape
- Experience supporting fundraising, campaign or bid communications
- An awareness of accessibility best practice for digital content
- Own transport, for occasional travel across the five boroughs
