We’re working with a growing fashion retailer looking for a Social Media Manager who loves creating content, from coming up with the initial idea through to filming, editing and getting it live.
With TikTok becoming an increasingly important part of the business, this is a great opportunity to join at an exciting stage and have a real influence over how its brands show up online.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of day-to-day social media content across several fashion accounts, including:
- Planning and creating content for TikTok, Instagram and Facebook
- Filming and editing short-form video content
- Appearing confidently in content when needed
- Organising and running regular product shoots
- Creating content in the office, at retail locations and on location
- Writing and sending customer email newsletters
- Tracking performance and using it to shape future content
- Keeping content moving without needing a daily brief
This is a busy content role, so you’ll need to enjoy creating at pace rather than spending a week perfecting one video.
About You
The client is open-minded about where you have gained your experience. You might currently work for a consumer brand, be an independent content creator or have successfully grown your own social channels.
What matters most is that you:
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.
- Can show engaging content you have filmed and edited yourself
- Feel confident and natural in front of the camera
- Understand TikTok and Instagram
- Can plan and manage shoots independently
- Are organised, self-sufficient and happy taking ownership
- Enjoy working in a fast-moving, informal environment
- Use social analytics to understand what is working
Fashion experience would be helpful, but it isn’t essential. Experience within lifestyle, beauty, food, hospitality or another consumer-led sector could work just as well.
Recruiter’s Thoughts
Harley, who is managing this role, says: “What stood out from our conversation with the client is that they are looking for someone creative, confident and happy to get stuck in. It’s a lively, informal environment where things move quickly, so it will suit someone who enjoys having freedom and taking ownership. For the right person, there is a real opportunity to make the role their own and have a visible impact on the growth of the brands.”
Why Apply?
You’ll have the freedom to try ideas, react quickly to trends and see the commercial impact of the content you create. You’ll also work closely with the people making decisions, rather than being several layers removed from the business.
As social media continues to grow in importance, there is plenty of scope to expand your role, develop your understanding of social commerce and take on more responsibility across the brands.
