Job Summary
Your mission is to build and grow the social media presence of Pulse Creative’s clients across the platforms that matter most to their audience. At Pulse Creative, social media is not a vanity channel — it is one of the primary tools we use to generate awareness, build trust, and drive clients into the sales funnel of the businesses we serve.
You will be responsible for managing multi-platform accounts, developing content strategies, and delivering measurable growth month over month. If you are driven by results and obsessed with what works on social, this role is for you.
Your Role
Social Media Manager
As a Social Media Manager at Pulse Creative, you will own the social media presence of multiple client accounts simultaneously. Your work goes beyond scheduling posts — you will develop platform strategies, build monthly content calendars, manage community engagement, brief the creative team on assets, and report on performance in a way that connects social activity directly to business outcomes.
The ideal candidate has managed social media for brands or agencies before, understands how algorithms work across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X, and knows the difference between content that gets likes and content that generates clients. Strong written communication, a sharp creative eye, and the ability to work independently across multiple accounts are essential.
Ideal Candidate
- 3+ years of experience managing social media for brands or a digital marketing agency.
- Deep understanding of Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X — including algorithms, formats, and best practices.
- Proven ability to grow accounts and drive engagement that converts into leads or sales.
- Strong copywriting skills with the ability to write in different brand voices.
- Experience briefing creative teams and reviewing content before it goes live.
- Data-driven mindset — you track performance, draw insights, and adjust strategy accordingly.
- Fully available and not engaged in conflicting full-time commitments.
What You'll Do
- Build monthly content calendars for each client account including caption drafts, hashtag research, and posting schedules.
- Schedule and publish content using social media management tools at the optimal times for each platform.
- Monitor engagement daily — respond to comments, answer DMs, and build an active community around each brand.
- Analyse performance weekly and produce monthly reports that connect social activity to business outcomes.
- Brief the design team on visual assets needed for each content batch with clear direction on format and brand guidelines.
- Stay ahead of platform updates, algorithm changes, and trending formats and bring new ideas to the team proactively.
Don't Apply If
- You treat social media as a posting schedule rather than a growth strategy — we need someone who thinks about outcomes, not output.
- You need constant direction and approval before taking action — this is a remote role that requires initiative and ownership.
- You are managing this alongside several other full-time clients or jobs — we need real focus and availability.
- You cannot take creative feedback on your work — constructive criticism is a core part of how we maintain quality.
- Your portfolio shows vanity metrics with no real business impact to back them up.
