About the Social Media Manager Position

A fast-growing snack brand in the US and UK is looking for a Social Media Manager to help shape the next chapter of its digital presence.

The brand has already built a loyal community of fans, generated millions of views across social platforms, and earned countless 5-star reviews. Now, the team is looking for someone who lives and breathes internet culture — someone who instinctively understands trends, platform behaviour, creator culture, and what makes people stop scrolling.

This is an opportunity for a creative, culturally plugged-in social media professional to take ownership of channels, build community, and create content that people genuinely want to engage with.

The Mission

Make the brand impossible to scroll past Turn curious snackers into loyal fans Build joyful, engaging online communities across multiple platforms Key Responsibilities Manage and grow the brand’s presence across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn, while exploring emerging platforms and communities Develop and maintain engaging monthly and weekly content calendars across US and UK audiences Create reactive, trend-led content that taps into internet culture, current conversations, and viral moments Identify and amplify high-performing user-generated content, helping turn customers into creators and advocates Build an active and engaging online community through thoughtful responses, conversations, giveaways, and interactive content Coordinate social content across international teams, creators, and designers to ensure smooth execution Publish engaging short-form videos, memes, carousels, behind-the-scenes moments, and culturally relevant content Analyse performance metrics and provide regular reporting alongside actionable recommendations Stay ahead of emerging social trends, formats, platform updates, creators, and online behaviours About the Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is creative, organised, culturally aware, and highly collaborative. They understand how different platforms work, know how to adapt content for each audience, and thrive in fast-paced startup environments.

Additional qualities include:

Strong understanding of platform culture and social trends Excellent organisational and communication skills Experience managing social communities and content calendars Ability to balance creativity with performance-driven thinking Confidence working across teams and time zones Bonus: experience filming, editing, or appearing in short-form content Why Join? High-impact role within a rapidly growing global snack brand Genuine ownership of social strategy and channels Significant creative freedom and autonomy Supportive, collaborative, and energetic team culture Opportunity to make visible impact quickly Free snacks and product perks Why This Role Stands Out

This is not a traditional “support” social role. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape content direction, build communities, test creative ideas quickly, and directly influence brand growth across two major markets.

The role offers a rare combination of strategic ownership, creative experimentation, and measurable impact — all within a fast-moving, culture-driven
