Social Media Editor

**What’s the role?**

Reporting to the Editor and Digital Director you will:

- Ensure our social media channels capture the passion of our audience and that our content speaks to them and suits the platforms they are engaging with us on.
- Utilise social platforms to share, source and interact daily with our audiences. You’ll effortlessly strike the balance between content that informs, educates, entertains and creates conversation.
- Drive the best social food coverage in the country — the person who takes the role needs to be a game-changer. You’ll have the responsibility over all of our social media accounts, providing best practices, growth strategies, and innovative use of social platform tools/functionality.
- Tell us about emerging platforms, developing trends and new tools before they become mainstream, all the while utilising a network of the country’s best food writers, chefs, travel specialists, photographers and videographers, as well as having the freedom to develop your own original concepts.
- Introduce new and innovative ways to increase our social media footprint, through continually exploring new customer trends in social communication and interaction.
- Have a critical eye for social media trends and work closely with the editorial and food team to create informative and useful content. It might be big on TikTok, but how do you make it delicious?
- Share social data with the _delicious. _team and wider food and travel teams on a regular basis.

**Who you are**

- You balance creativity and attention to detail, no matter if that’s in social captions, campaign communications or while editing pre-existing footage into something new.
- Food in every form is your passion. Social media and video are your other passions, which makes you the go-to person for the best tactics to increase reach, engagement and referrals.
- You are data-led and are fluent in analytics, and know how to implement strategies based on data.
- Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube and the next big thing, it doesn’t matter because you’re across it all and know exactly what it takes to get a reaction.
- You stay on top of the latest platforms, tools and social technology developments that enable us to engage readers and achieve business goals.
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite programs (Photoshop and video editing skills are an advantage).
- From making highly engaging social videos to talking directly to our audience, you know when to have a light touch and when to be serious.
- You are a strong communicator and are able to work with multiple stakeholders across marketing, editorial and product teams.
- Take initiative to work on a range of projects, manage strict deadlines and be able to work independently.
