The role
£28,000 + company car | Hybrid / Regional
Locations: West Midlands | East Midlands | London & surrounding areas
Are you the person who spots a TikTok trend before everyone else? Do you know how to turn a great car, an interesting story or even an everyday moment into content people actually want to watch?
At Vertu, we're looking for three Social Content Creators across the UK (one based in the West Midlands, one based in the East Midlands and one based in London & surrounding areas) to join our Social Media team and help grow our presence across TikTok, Instagram and other social channels.
This is a hands-on creative role. You'll be out and about across our dealerships finding stories and opportunities, filming and editing content, working with colleagues on camera and bringing our automotive brands to life on social. You'll own a portfolio of regional social pages and take content from the initial idea right through to publishing and performance analysis.
What you'll do
You'll have plenty of freedom to be creative, while working as part of our wider Social Media and Marketing teams. You'll:
- Create engaging, mobile-first content for TikTok, Instagram, Reels and other social channels.
- Own and grow an allocated portfolio of regional franchise social pages.
- Plan, storyboard, film, edit and publish content from across our dealership network.
- Bring new cars, product launches, dealership stories, events and campaigns to life through creative social content.
- Keep your finger on the pulse of social trends, sounds and formats and react quickly when there's an opportunity for Vertu to join the conversation.
- Get out into our dealerships and proactively find the people, vehicles and stories that could become great content.
- Write engaging captions and social copy that match our tone of voice.
- Use insights and analytics to understand what's performing, what's not and what we should do more of.
- Help colleagues feel comfortable and confident appearing on camera, giving direction where needed.
- Work closely with fellow Social Content Creators and colleagues across Social, PR, Content, Events, Partnerships, YouTube and our in-house Studio teams.
- Support key brand campaigns, vehicle launches, partnerships and events.
- Ensure everything you publish is accurate, on-brand and compliant with our social media policies and manufacturer requirements.
What we're looking for
First and foremost, we're looking for a creative content creator who understands social.
How you'll work
This isn't a role where you'll spend every day behind a desk.
You'll regularly travel across your allocated region, visiting Vertu dealerships to capture content and find opportunities. There will also be occasional evening and weekend activity around launches, events and partnerships.
You'll therefore need a full UK driving licence and you'll receive a company car to support the travel required by the role.
What you'll be doing
Most importantly, you'll bring ideas, energy and curiosity. We want someone who is willing to try things, learn from the results and constantly look for new ways to make our social content better.
