Overview
We're a growing UAE-based house of pet wellbeing brands covering everything from training and daycare to grooming, vet care, wellness, retail and one-of-a-kind pet experiences like puppy yoga.
We're premium, we're playful, and we're here for every pet and every kind of pet parent, at every stage of their pet's life.
We're looking for a Social Media & Community Executive to come in, roll up their sleeves, and help us bring our brands to life online and in real life.
This isn't a "post the content calendar and clock out" kind of role.
You'll be working directly with our Head of Marketing on everything from big-picture brand moments to the tiny details that make our brands instantly recognisable.
You'll pitch ideas in the morning, shoot content in the afternoon, help plan an experience for next month, and jump into the comments in between.
If that sounds like your kind of chaos, and you light up at the idea of working with dogs and cats (and the occasional rabbit or bird), keep reading!
What you’ll be doing
Social
- Owning the day-to-day across our social channels, mainly Instagram, TikTok, and wherever culture takes us next
- Concepting, shooting, editing, and producing content in-house
- Pitching and running with your own ideas, whether that's a series concept, a trend you want to flip, or an activation you've been dying to try
- Bringing our brand world to life across every channel and touchpoint, working within our guidelines to keep things consistent, recognisable, and unmistakably us
- Pulling the basics on reporting and knowing what the numbers mean
Community (online & IRL)
- Shaping how our community shows up online through DMs, comments, and conversations that make people feel part of something
- Supporting the team on the offline side: experiences, events, partnerships, and activations
- Spotting the moments, trends, and creators worth plugging into
- What we’re looking for
- 1-2 years of experience in social media, content creation, or community management. Agency, in-house, freelance, or your own projects all count
- You live on social media and can tell when a brand's getting it right
- A creative eye, a solid grasp of basic design principles, and an instinct for good visuals
- Hands-on with video and stills (shoot, edit, turn around something good, fast) using tools like Canva and CapCut
- Startup mentality. You'd rather shoot a video in a few hours than plan it for a week. You’re reactive, bold, open to making mistakes and learning from them, and ready to roll up your sleeves when needed!
- A people person, online and off. Warm, sociable, and happy to step into the room when needed
- A genuine love for animals (non-negotiable). You'll be around pets daily and they'll be at the heart of a lot of what we do
- Some examples of creative work (video, static, or both) you can share with us. Nothing fancy, just show us what you love to create!
- Fluent in English. Arabic is a desirable asset.
Nice-to-haves
- Basic Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Premiere, etc.)
- Experience with content planning, scheduling, and analytics tools
- Experience working with creators and influencers
- Some Meta Ads Manager knowledge
- Experience supporting events or brand activations
- A community you've built or grown yourself
- Our pitch
- This is a role for someone who wants to learn fast, build a body of work, and grow with a brand.
- You will get real ownership, real creative input, and the chance to lead your own projects from day one.
- You’ll be working closely with the Head of Marketing on a small, fresh team with big ambitions.
- We’re not looking for someone to follow a playbook, we’re looking for someone to help write it.
