JOB OVERVIEW

Not your typical Social Media Manager role!

We are looking for someone who doesn't just understand how to manage social media accounts, but someone who also loves graphic design and video production.

We're a founder-led Australian agency running two different companies focused on improving the success of trade and service businesses (carpenters, plumbers, electricians, etc.).

You'll work to develop strong social media strategies for our 2 company pages (Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn), as well as our founder's personal Instagram account that's used for softly promoting the business. You will also be expected to assist our Meta Ads Specialist with creating content they require to run the Meta Ads campaigns for our small portfolio of active clients (images + reels). (Don't worry, you'll never be expected to be on camera yourself)

As mentioned, this is NOT your standard Social Media Management role…
Your focus will be developing strategies, improving the reach of company accounts, building audiences, and most obviously; content creation!

This is a role that requires flexibility, creativity, and the ability to perform under pressure. You'll work across various brands and grow as a professional at an incredible rate – and we will reward you as you deliver results!

What we offer:
US $700 month
Performance-based bonuses determined following strategy establishment.
Commission for each onboarded client via account messaging (DM).
A meritocratic ideology.

Requirements:
2+ years of experience managing social media for businesses and creating content including images and reels.
Ability to understand analytics and adapt content to improve performance.
Excellent written English. (If you do not know what a "tradie" or a "sparky" is, look it up before you apply).
Experience in writing scripts for reels.
Experience in Canva, or similar.
Experience in CapCut, or similar.
Australian business hours (our customers are mostly in Melbourne, so most of your day should overlap with 9am to 5pm Melbourne time, which is 7am to 3pm in the Philippines).
Reliable internet, a computer that can create images and videos, and a quiet place to take meetings.

Preferred, but not required:
Experience running a personal brand.
Experience marketing to tradespeople, builders or another blue collar audience.
Experience converting conversations in Instagram DMs for a product or a service.
Experience producing ad creative for Meta campaigns.
Basic photo retouching.

How to apply: Send your CV and Cover letter (max. 500 words) to ----------

Start your Cover letter with the word "Sparky" so we know you read this far…
Then answer these five points, in this order, and keep it concise:
Links to two accounts you managed, with follower numbers when you started, when you finished, and the dates. Say whether you ran them at the same time.
In one or two sentences: what does a tradie do all day, and why would they never read a long caption?
A scheduling platform, design and video tools you use, and one thing you dislike about each.
A link to one short video you edited where someone is talking to the camera.
Confirm you accept US$700 a month plus bonuses, and tell us when is the soonest you could start.

Applications that send us the email and skip the word or the five answers will not be read. Shortlisted applicants receive a short paid task before any interview.
