Social Media Manager — Fast-Growing Challenger Drinks Brand
Our client is a genuinely disruptive, culturally relevant brand. Built on personality, wit, and a refusal to play it safe, this is a brand that people actually talk about, not just scroll past.
They're now looking for a Social Media Manager to take full ownership of their social presence day-to-day.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the daily posting schedule and community management across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn
- Develop a deep understanding of how each platform behaves differently and tailor content strategy accordingly
- Analyse performance data to identify what's working and why — translating insight into action, not just observation
- Track delivery and continuously optimise content to maximise reach and engagement
- Collaborate closely with an in-house creative team to shape and refine content ideas
- Brief and manage design and production input to bring content to life
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.
