• Build monthly content calendars and campaign plans.
• Write captions, micro-copy, campaign messaging, and brand voice guidelines.
• Track trends and proactively suggest reel concepts, story ideas, and content formats.

Content Strategy & Execution

• Work closely with the in-house designer and creator to produce high-impact posts, reels, and stories.
• Brief and oversee shoots, product videos, testimonials, and lifestyle content.
• Build UGC and influencer collaboration pipelines.

Community Building

• Manage comments, replies, DMs, and community conversations across all pages.
• Turn customer queries into insights; escalate high-value feedback.
• Build a highly engaged audience with meaningful communication.

Analytics & Growth

• Test & iterate content formats based on performance.
• Recommend growth strategies: collabs, reels, contests, influencer drops, etc

Coordination & Brand Alignment

• Ensure visual and tonal consistency across all brand touchpoints.
• Coordinate with operations, café team, and product teams for real-time updates.
• Plan social media around product launches, events, and brand moments.

Qualifications

• Excellent writing skills- crisp, youthful, punchy.
• Ability to brief and guide designers, editors, and creators.
• Comfortable managing a small team (or ready to step into that role).
• Basic editing ability (CapCut/IG Reels) for quick prototypes.
• Experience in D2C, lifestyle, fashion, beauty, or hospitality is a plus.
• High ownership, hunger to scale brands fast, and willingness to experiment.

What You'll Love here

• You will build and scale multiple brands from scratch, not just manage a single page.
• Work directly with decision-makers, get fast approvals, ship ideas quickly.
• Huge creative freedom.
• A portfolio of brands that look great on your CV.
• A digitally-forward, youthful environment with no bureaucratic processes.
