Social Media Manager

Precision Fuel & Hydration helps endurance athletes, and our social channels are where a lot of that story gets told. We're looking for someone to take them on, grow them and make them impossible to ignore. This is a hands-on role with real breadth. One minute you're creating content end to end, the next you're briefing and coordinating the creators, scientists and specialists who help bring our channels to life.
We're growing fast, which means things move quickly around here. Our roles will evolve over time, and while the key responsibilities are outlined below, there may be changes as we grow. We're looking for someone who's up for that kind of pace and flexibility - someone who's keen to roll up their sleeves and grow with us.
What You'll Do

Own the day-to-day running and growth of our social channels, prioritising Instagram, YouTube and Facebook, creating leading-edge content that reflects our brand, connects with our audience and is optimised to each channel
Build and drive the channel roadmap: how we grow quality, relevant reach, re-engage our existing audience, and turn that into sales - all under the wider marketing strategy and within the brand code set out by our Creative Director
Take a leading role in shaping social strategy, working closely with the Marketing and Creative Directors
Create great content end to end from the planning, shoot, edit, and scheduling, and own an effective briefing process for internal and external content producers
Translate the science behind what we do into content that's genuinely useful, easy to digest and right for each channel and audience - without dumbing it down
Set the brief and hold the bar high for channel-optimised content, so everyone producing for our channels knows what good looks like
Work closely with our partnerships and athlete teams to amplify and collaborate on the best creator, ambassador and athlete content on our own channels
Assess where we should expand next, for example Strava, Reddit and TikTok, and make the case for where to focus
Get out on the road, often internationally, to capture content at events and bring our stories to life
Track the metrics that matter and turn them into insight that sharpens our social game and feeds the wider team's output
Engage directly with our community, amplifying the best of our audience, and be the brand voice across social: authentic, consistent and human
Stay ahead of social trends to keep PF&H fresh and relevant

At least 5 years managing and growing social media channels, ideally for a DTC ecommerce brand and ideally in sport
A track record of growing channels in a way that counts by expanding quality, relevant reach and re-engaging an existing audience, with a clear line to sales, not just follower count
A strong grasp of what makes people tick on each platform, and how to tailor content so it's fit for purpose and effective
Proven content creation experience, end to end (videography/video editing; photography/graphic design - we use Adobe Creative Cloud)
Creativity and a genuine passion for storytelling, with strong copywriting skills
A knack for taking complex ideas and making them simple, engaging and channel-appropriate
Comfortable coordinating and briefing other contributors (creators, scientists, athletes) and keeping the quality bar high across everything produced for our channels
Strong analytical skills and experience turning performance data into clear recommendations
An understanding of how paid and organic social work together - enough to help shape effective ad content, with ownership of paid social sitting with another team member
Seriously organised, with excellent time management - you need to juggle priorities without breaking a sweat
Happy to travel (often internationally) and work the odd weekend or late night when deadlines call for it

Nice To Have

Experience and interest in using AI to enhance social media activity and the content production process
Hands-on experience producing content for, or managing, the channels we're weighing up next, such as Strava, Reddit or TikTok
A background in sport, or being a keen athlete or endurance-sports fan means you'll already understand our audience
