Ready to own the entire social media and marketing engine of a fast-growing, high-performance financial services brand?

This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-autonomy, high-visibility role where creativity is valued, speed is encouraged, and your work directly drives business growth. This is not a “post and maintain” marketing role – it’s for someone who wants to build momentum, shape a brand, and see real commercial impact.

Our client is a high-energy, ambitious business with a strong market presence and a collaborative, switched-on team. They move quickly, experiment often, and back smart ideas. If you thrive in fast-paced environments and love turning content into growth, you’ll feel right at home here.

What this role is really about:

You’ll be the creative and strategic force behind the brand’s marketing and social media presence – generating ideas, setting direction, and turning content into client acquisition.

You’ll come in each day with ideas already forming: what’s trending, what’s working, what needs to be tested next. This role rewards initiative, originality, and momentum.

What you’ll be doing

  • Own and run all social media channels end-to-end
  • Create the creative direction – concepts, hooks, scripts, angles and ideas

  • Drive lead generation and brand growth through strategic content

  • Plan, coordinate and support brand events
  • Identify and execute collaborations (podcasts, events, activations, partnerships)

  • Bring structure to pace: plan content, manage weekly outputs, and keep momentum high

You’ll report directly to the business owner and work closely with senior leaders across the organisation, with real access to decision-makers.

Who we’re looking for:

You’re sharp, proactive, and fast-moving. You combine creativity with commercial thinking and don’t wait to be told what to do.

We’re looking for someone who is:

  • A natural ideas generator
  • High-energy and genuinely enthusiastic
  • Strategic – you understand why content works, not just how to post it
  • Organised and able to juggle multiple moving parts
  • Confident with a camera
  • A strong communicator
  • Curious, trend-aware, and digitally switched-on

Why this role stands out

  • Full ownership of marketing and social channels
  • A rare blend of hands-on content creation and strategic marketing
  • Direct visibility of your impact on growth and enquiries
  • Huge creative runway and exposure to senior leadership
  • An environment that rewards ambition, initiative and ideas

If you’re creative, driven, and thrive in fast-moving environments – this is your opportunity. Apply now.
