Job description

About Us

We’re a personal branding agency working with some of the UK’s most high-profile leaders, founders, and entrepreneurs. Our focus is helping clients build influence through social media and content - primarily LinkedIn and Instagram. We’re at an exciting stage in our growth journey and are looking for a Head Of Social + Content to join us as a key part of that.

This role is for someone who thrives on leadership, oversight, and setting standards. You’ll be responsible for ensuring that client content and strategies are consistently world-class, delivered through the team you manage. You’ll guide, oversee, and uphold the quality of our work across accounts, while playing a leadership role in shaping the agency’s growth and direction.

The Role

As Head of Social + Content, you’ll lead and oversee our social delivery, ensuring excellence through others:

• Brief and manage the social team, ensuring content meets the highest creative and strategic standards.
• Oversee content calendars, campaigns, and reporting across multiple client accounts.
• Own day-to-day client relationships (WhatsApp, monthly calls, quarterly meetings) as a trusted partner.
• Uphold standards by reviewing output and ensuring consistency in tone, quality, and cultural relevance.
• Translate performance data into strategic recommendations and share insights with clients.
• Bring fresh, relevant ideas that align to client goals and broader social trends.
• Contribute to agency leadership conversations, growth decisions, and internal standards.
• Work alongside the Founder to shape client strategies and ensure execution delivers against them.

This role is leadership-focused. You’ll guide and elevate the team’s work, ensuring our delivery is consistently outstanding while freeing up senior founders and clients from the day-to-day.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience managing social teams and overseeing content delivery at a high level (agency or in-house).
• Excellent client communication - professional but personable, able to build trust fast.
• Strong editorial judgment - able to critique, guide, and raise the quality of work produced by others.
• Reliable, organised, and structured in delivery.
• Confident interpreting analytics and turning them into actionable insight.
• A natural curiosity for trends, formats, and cultural shifts in social media.

What Success Looks Like

• Clients are consistently outperforming on social compared to before.
• Founders are freed from day-to-day client delivery without any drop in quality or relationship.
• You’re recognised by clients as a trusted extension of their leadership team.
• You’ve established yourself internally as the standard-setter for execution.

Why Join Us

• Career-defining role: step up from a big agency into a leadership-track role where your work directly shapes the business.
• Ownership upside: you’ll be placed onto our company share scheme and share in the value of what we’re building.
• High-profile clients: work directly with founders, leaders, and entrepreneurs building influence at the top of their industries.
• Growth journey: be part of a fast-growing agency shaping the future of personal branding.
• Culture: ambitious, creative, great care, personable, no-ego, team-first.

Benefits

• Company share scheme - You'll own part of what you're helping to build
• Life Admin Half Day - Half a day off every month fully paid to do all your life admin
