Social Media Marketing & Engagement Specialist

Overview

Our client is looking for a proactive, hands-on Social Media Marketing & Engagement Specialist to join a growing management consulting business. This role is primarily focused on building engagement, growing relationships and consistently getting content in front of the right people. You will manage social media across LinkedIn, WhatsApp, TikTok and Facebook, actively respond to comments and direct messages, reach out to people who engage with or connect with the business, and help restart and manage the company's email marketing. This is a high-output role where speed, consistency and engagement are more important than spending hours perfecting individual pieces of content. The ideal candidate understands that 80% done and published is often better than 100% perfect and sitting in drafts.

Schedule:

  • Part-time – 20 hours per week | Monday–Friday (aligned with London, UK business hours)

Key Responsibilities

Social Media Engagement – Highest Priority

  • Monitor and respond to comments and direct messages (DMs) across social media platforms.
  • Ensure existing comments and messages are responded to promptly, including working through previous unanswered engagement.
  • Proactively engage with people who interact with, follow or connect with the business.
  • Reach out to relevant individuals and build genuine relationships through social platforms.
  • Identify opportunities to turn social media engagement into conversations, connections and potential business opportunities.
  • Maintain a consistent and professional brand voice across all communications.

Social Media Posting & Content

  • Manage regular posting across LinkedIn, WhatsApp, TikTok and Facebook.
  • Publish video content consistently, with a focus on speed and regular output.
  • Repurpose existing videos, images and content into social media posts.
  • Edit videos and images for social media using quick and efficient tools.
  • Take existing content and turn it into engaging, platform-appropriate posts.
  • Suggest content ideas and identify opportunities to improve engagement.
  • Review what content performs well and use these insights to improve future posts.

Email Marketing

  • Take ownership of restarting and managing the company's email marketing activity.
  • Help build and maintain the company's email/contact list.
  • Create, format and send a weekly email newsletter.
  • Develop engaging email content using existing materials, videos, insights and marketing messages.
  • Manage the email marketing process from content creation through to scheduling and delivery.
  • Monitor engagement and use results to improve future newsletters.

Fast-Turnaround Design & Marketing Materials

  • Create quick, professional designs for social media, advertising and marketing materials.
  • Use Claude Design as the primary design tool, alongside other AI-powered design tools where appropriate.
  • Create adverts and promotional materials for print, booklets and digital use, including WhatsApp Status content.
  • Repurpose designs across different channels and formats.
  • Prioritise speed and effectiveness over highly polished or time-consuming designs.
  • Be comfortable producing good-quality creative work quickly rather than spending excessive time perfecting individual designs.

Content & Video Editing

  • Edit short-form videos and images for social media.
  • Add basic captions, formatting, branding and other elements where required.
  • Repurpose longer-form content into shorter, engaging pieces.
  • Work efficiently with existing content rather than always creating from scratch.

Priority Order:

  • Respond to comments and DMs
  • Reach out to people who have connected or engaged
  • Post videos consistently
  • Edit videos and images
  • Refine and optimise posts based on what has performed well – where time allows

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in social media marketing, digital marketing, content marketing or a similar role.
  • Proven experience managing social media platforms, particularly LinkedIn, WhatsApp, TikTok and Facebook.
  • Strong experience with social media engagement, community management and direct messaging.
  • Excellent written English and the ability to communicate professionally and naturally online.
  • Experience creating and managing email marketing campaigns and newsletters.
  • Experience editing videos and images for social media.
  • Comfortable creating quick-turnaround graphics and marketing materials.
  • Experience with AI-powered marketing and content creation tools.
  • Strong understanding of social media trends, engagement and content performance.
  • Highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities.
  • Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of tasks.
  • Strong attention to detail without becoming overly focused on perfection.

Desirable:

  • Experience with Claude Design or similar AI-powered design tools.
  • Experience with email marketing platforms such as Mailchimp, HubSpot, Klaviyo or similar.
  • Experience using ChatGPT and other AI tools for content creation.
  • Experience creating print-ready marketing materials or advertisements.
