- As a social media specialist at News Corp, you’ll know how to follow the insights and analytics to expose our journalism to huge audiences; and then engage them through sharp writing and dynamic visual storytelling.
- You’ll be authoring, planning, producing, publishing and distributing content across social media channels to grow our audience engagement and, ultimately, our subscriber base.
- This is a vital part of our digital media strategy and key to driving a sustainable and growing audience - now and in the future.

**Who you are**:

- You are constantly trawling all platforms and analysing trends.
- You want to always be at the heart of what matters most to your audience - and be constantly hungry to find ways to engage new audiences through brilliant content.
- Create and curate compelling and engaging social media content through your sharp writing, quick news judgment, and use of visual storytelling tools such as Canva
- Identify content engagement issues and action solutions
- Change tone, voice and writing style depending on the target brand
- Identify the key social media issues of the day using insights and analytics, and then find or create social content to meet audience needs
- Collaborate with all levels of a newsroom - from junior reporters to senior editors, photographers and videographers.
- Excellent planning and scheduling skills to stay afloat in a busy, “always on” news cycle
- Digital media doesn’t scare or slow you down. It accelerates you.
- You’re a great team player, supporting your teammates and ‘jump in’ to get things done.

**What’s in it for you?**
- Attractive remuneration package
- An opportunity to innovate, challenge the norm and pioneer the way forward
- A truly collaborative environment
- Variety of work where no two days are the same
- Work with some of Australia's most recognised and prestigious brands
