About This Role

Role Overview:

3. Account Management & Growth

• Manage and oversee daily activity across all platforms
• Maintain high standards for posting, engagement, and consistency
• Monitor performance and continuously improve direction
• Ensure accounts remain active, relevant, and professional

4. Communication & Relationship Building

• Engage with relevant accounts, audiences, and communities
• Build relationships with key pages, professionals, and partners

• Represent the brand through clear and confident communication

5. Influencer & Partnership Management

• Identify and collaborate with relevant influencers and industry figures
• Plan and execute influencer campaigns
• Manage communication, expectations, and deliverables
• Ensure collaborations align with brand positioning and audience
