Social Media Specialist

As a Social Media Specialist, you'll help drive our client's social engagement strategy, connecting products and services to users through relevant touchpoints. You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams and external agencies, supporting Brand initiatives.

By leveraging data-driven insights from social listening and content performance analytics, you'll inspire effective social efforts, from always-on content to KOL management and influencer activations. Your ability to manage projects and stakeholders, combined with creative thinking and a flair for curating engaging social content, is key to driving earned marketing results alongside local teams and agencies.

• Provide social media expertise and generate innovative ideas for the market. Help implement engaging brand narratives into a wider integrated marketing plan, with a focus on trend-driven content curation.
• Analyse data into insights whilst building a narrative that will fuel social media campaigns and programmes as part of the broader country-specific marketing initiatives, particularly emphasising TikTok and other key social platform performance.
• Identify and escalate areas of concern and opportunities for the brand and pitch fresh, innovative ideas to drive engagement and community, leveraging a deep understanding of social trends.
• Partner with cross-functional teams on social strategy and execution to capture the brand's presence and end-user engagement.
• Manage analytics, track audience growth, and generate campaign-specific metrics, focusing on content performance and audience engagement.
• Help build and manage strong relationships with influencers and micro-creators throughout various verticals to increase authentic advocacy and brand love, and facilitate content creation where appropriate.
• Collect and share insights and trends from social communities to improve future campaigns.
