  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • Relevant experience or examples of work (where available)
  • Your availability, time zone, and weekend availability
  • Confirmation that you meet the English and internet requirements
