Job Details

This is an amazing opportunity for a Social Media Executive to join our sports management agency client to manage their social media across all channels, as well as developing their PR and Marketing.  Football is the focus right now, so you need to be passionate about the beautiful game, as well as an interest in all sports and big brands.   You will have a creative flair for social media and have excellent graphic design and video editing skills. Whilst there are core office hours, there will be opportunities to attend games and report live and the working week will reflect the nature of football. 

As Social Media Executive you will be able to bring new ideas and trends and be ready with the latest news in the football world and keeping up to date with the social media tools and trends.  You will be building those all-important working relationships with the team, bloggers and influencers, the media, and potential new clients.  You’ll be involved in new business pitches and presentations as the business expands.

You will have a pro-active, creative attitude with an entrepreneurial bias. No two days will ever be the same as Social Media Executive and you will need to keep up with the quick pace and tight deadlines and be ready to grasp all the exciting opportunities that will come your way. Excellent communications skills are a must.

Typical day-to-day duties as their Social Media Executive could include the following:

-        Creating compelling and engaging social media posts

-        Engaging with influencers and bloggers

-        Social media campaign management and development

-        Writing press releases

-        Marketing communications

There is a good salary and holiday allowance on offer, but more than that this is a career path.  And an opportunity to work in the world of football!  This is the chance to be part of a growing business, with expansion plans that will pivot around their social media expertise.  There are no glass ceilings here, your only limit is your own potential!    

Initially in the office five days a week, but with time the working patterns will be more flexible to work around the players and games.

Please include a covering note to let us know why this is the perfect role for you.  We want to know about your passion for football and for social media.
