Job description

This is a fully remote role, but it is not a passive or background position. You’ll be trusted with real responsibility, deadlines, and brand-facing work. If you’re organised, detail-oriented, and genuinely interested in digital marketing, this role can grow quickly.

Key responsibilities

Tasks may include, but are not limited to:

  • Social media management across platforms (posting, scheduling, captions, tagging)
  • Scheduling content using tools such as Meta Business Suite, Buffer, or similar
  • Monitoring and responding to emails and messages professionally
  • Handling sales and collaboration enquiries and flagging leads
  • Creating simple graphics using Canva (posts, stories, thumbnails, promos)
  • Basic video editing (short-form clips, trimming, captions, exports)
  • Uploading and formatting content on websites or CMS platforms
  • Keeping content calendars, folders, and tasks organised
  • Assisting with outreach, follow-ups, and general admin tasks
  • Posting or monitoring content outside standard weekday hours when required

Essential requirements

You must have:

  • Perfect written and spoken English
  • A high-speed, reliable internet connection
  • Excellent attention to detail and ability to follow instructions precisely
  • A positive attitude and strong work ethic
  • Good time management and the ability to meet deadlines
  • Experience using social media platforms and digital tools
  • Confidence with Canva, Google Drive, and scheduling software
  • Ability to work independently without constant supervision
  • Openness to working weekends, as some posts or responses may be time-sensitive

Desirable (but not essential)

  • Previous experience in a marketing, social media, or digital assistant role
  • Basic video editing experience (CapCut, Premiere Pro, or similar)
  • Familiarity with email marketing tools, CRMs, or content management systems
  • Understanding of engagement metrics and basic performance reporting
  • Experience working with brands, influencers, or online publications

What I’m looking for

This role suits someone who is:

  • Proactive rather than reactive
  • Comfortable taking ownership of tasks
  • Clear and professional in their communication
  • Reliable and consistent when working remotely
  • Flexible and understands that social media does not operate strictly Monday to Friday
  • Interested in long-term work rather than a short-term gig

How to apply

Please apply with:

  • A short, personal introduction written in your own words
  • Relevant experience or examples of work (where available)
  • Your availability, time zone, and weekend availability
  • Confirmation that you meet the English and internet requirements

Applications that are clearly copied and pasted from AI tools will not be considered.

Generic or low-effort applications will also be rejected.
