What You’ll Bring:

• Demonstrated experience across social media, brand, or creative production
• Strong hands-on experience creating content across formats, including short-form video
• Experience managing or working closely with platform partners (e.g. TikTok, Meta, DSPs)
• Excellent copywriting skills and confidence engaging with artists and stakeholders
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities

Technical Skills
