Social Media Executive - Brand Hackers
This role is instrumental to growing the social accounts of some really exciting brands within the startup and scale-up world.
At Brand Hackers we help challenger brands fight smarter, think sharper, and win bigger.
We’re the secret growth partner trusted by some of the most loved new brands on supermarket shelves and in your online baskets - from Lucky Saint, Bol Foods, Here We Flo, Who Gives A Crap, Tony’s, TimTams and dozens of fast-moving scale-ups across food, drink, wellness and entertainment.
We’ve supported over 150+ brands, at three defining moments:
→ Founder-led startups building clarity and momentum
→ Post-funding scale-ups under pressure to grow fast
→ Big corps acting as challengers looking for sharper thinking and faster outcomes
Brands come to us when:
→ Their team is stretched
→ Growth has outpaced capability
→ Strategy isn’t clear
→ Execution is messy
→ They need experienced hands, fast
We offer support across insights, strategy, fractional roles and full executional marketing teams - all under one roof - so ambitious brands can scale with confidence instead of chaos.
We’re 6 years old and have grown revenue every year, from just 2 of us to a team of 30+ people with knock-out case studies we’re really proud of and a serious growing reputation (even if we say so ourselves).
This role is instrumental to growing the social presence of some really exciting brands within the startup world.
You'll be…
As a Social Media Exec within the Brand Hackers team, you’ll be working with a team across 2-4 brands at any one time. Here are a few of the main things you’ll find yourself doing day to day:
Content planning - creating strategically clear, insight-led content plans that will deliver on brands’ objectives across channels
Content creation - both static designed assets and social-first video for a range of platforms, predominantly Instagram and TikTok
Copywriting - you’ll need to be able to come up with killer copy that entices people in on posts and captions
Community management - you’ll often be directly responsible for managing all comments and DMs on behalf of the brand
Influencer outreach - we’ll need you to be great at pulling together a list of all the right influencers for the brand and then handling all outreach, briefing and send-outs
Partnerships - brand partnerships are a key growth lever for several startup brands - you’ll be leading this process end-to-end
Reporting - knowing what to post is important but so is measuring what’s working so you can be strategic and creative
Overall coordination - from photoshoots to sample send-outs, there will always be a few things that fall just outside of social media
You'll have...
A creative eye for what works on social media
Relevant experience managing social media for a brand (or if not, examples of a killer personal brand that shows you know what you’re doing)
A curiosity to bring inspiration from other brands and categories into your work
Strong interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to build and manage relationships with stakeholders at all levels
Excellent project and time management skills
Although with Exec’s we aren’t looking for absolute experts, you should be able to demonstrate experience using a number of social-first platforms for content, including the likes of Canva, Adobe Suite, CapCut, etc.
💸 Salary: £27,000 - £32,000 DOE
🏡 Logistics: Roaming - WFH, but you will be required to be a sensible commuter distance from London for ad-hoc client visits or shoot days.
