Social Media & Content Manager - Jazz Cafe

We’re looking for a standout Social Media & Content Manager to join the Columbo family and lead the socials for Jazz Cafe - one of the UK’s most iconic live music venues.

With your time split between our creative office and the venue itself, you’ll be capturing culture as it happens - shooting artists, crowds, backstage moments and show energy, then shaping that into content that grows our audience & brand.

You’ll own our presence on Instagram and TikTok, setting the creative direction and turning real moments into high-performing content.


The role:

• Own Jazz Cafe’s social strategy across Instagram & TikTok
  
  

• Drive audience growth, engagement and reach through consistently high-quality content
  
  

• Spend around 50% of your week on-site capturing live shows, DJs, crowds and behind-the-scenes moments
  
  

• Edit, write, publish and optimise content day-to-day
  
  

• Develop repeatable content formats and series (not just one-off posts)
  
  

• Work closely with bookings, marketing and creative teams to align content with campaigns and events
  
  

• Use performance data to refine strategy and improve results

About you:

• You’ve grown social channels for music, culture, lifestyle or fashion brands -  and can show real results
  
  

• You live and breathe Instagram and TikTok trends and understand how culture moves online
  
  

• You have a strong creative eye and know how to capture content that feels raw, real and scroll-stopping
  
  

• You understand what makes content shareable, and how to engineer viral moments
  
  

• You’re confident shooting and editing on both mobile and desktop (Reels, TikTok, short-form video, captions)
  
  

• You’re a natural storyteller and copywriter with a strong sense of tone and voice
  
  

• You’re comfortable using analytics to inform creative decisions
  
  

• You have relationships with creators, photographers or videographers you can tap into
  
  

• You’re happy working late nights and weekends in venues and thrive in fast-moving, high-energy environments

Benefits:

• Free guest list access to all Columbo Group events and festivals

• 50% discount on food & drink across all venues

• Regular team socials
