Senior content manager jobs in Waltham cross, hertfordshire

Age UK Wandsworth is a local, independent charity that works to promote the wellbeing of all older people in the London Borough of Wandsworth. We offer a variety of services with the goal of helping older people to #AgeWellinWandsworth. Our charity is consistently growing, so we are creating this new role to support our CEO with social media, marketing and organising events. The role will suit someone who is calm, mature, professional, organised and creative and will be comfortable working directly with a creative and curious CEO committed to transforming the charity’s online presence.

About us

We work with organisations that play a crucial role in improving society. Our clients have been at the forefront of policy changes that improve school food, conserve the ocean, and scale interventions that protect children in war.

The hard work of getting these kind of policy changes through can be dry and technical: to convince an government official that one policy solution is better than another can require a lot of debate, evidence production, and thinking about implementation.

That is where our clients are strong. Where we can help them – and where you will be helping them – is by ensuring that the background noise around the policy issue is productive to them achieving that goal.

The job

We’re looking for a social media hot shot. You’ll have an instinctive sense of what will (and won’t) work on various platforms. You’ll have that instinct because you’ve done it all before, by creating content for an organisation or campaign (or for yourself!) We want weird, atypical, challenging; someone who will push the boat out.

We are not looking for the stereotypical and generic social media content that you see most places publishing. And we are not looking for someone to put a prompt into AI and publish the output.

You’ll be using your content creation skills on campaigns to change legislation, on organisational social media accounts to make them stand out from the ‘blob’, and quite possibly on Cast from Clay’s own channels.

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we are looking for 

You will have:

• A strong understanding of how each social platform works. You will be familiar with audience engagement, community management, and platform algorithms.
• Experience in using tools to track, analyse, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) to determine content effectiveness and inform future strategies.
• Skills to develop and publish high-quality, engaging content (text, image, video) across socials, often utilising scheduling platforms. The content has to be tailored to distinct brand voices.
• A deep understanding of what social media current trends are.

If you feel like you don’t meet 100% of the criteria, please don’t let that stop you. If you love the sound of this role and have a strong foundation in social media, we would love to hear from you.

Note: This is an immediate hire. We are reviewing applications on a rolling basis, so please don't wait to apply.

Why Cast from Clay?

The kinds of people that thrive at Cast from Clay are intellectually curious, are open to challenge, and care about the details. Most importantly, they prize clarity of thought. In today’s world we are overwhelmed with information and content. Knowing what they think and being able to explain why is, to our minds, one of the most important skills of today.

It’s worth saying that we don’t care what your political views are, as long as you have some–the team has a mix of views.

What we offer

We offer a competitive benefits package for all our positions, including enhanced parental leave, sabbaticals, and training budgets.

• Office: we work from our offices in Vauxhall on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You’re welcome to use the office more frequently than that if you wish.
• Home office allowance: we’ll make a £150 contribution towards kitting out your home workspace.
• Flexible working: tell us how you work best and we’ll do what we can to make it happen – including if you want to spend time working from abroad.
• Monthly team socials: we like spending time together so every few weeks we come up with ideas for things to do together. That’s included board games over pizza, ice skating, movie nights, playing a VR game together and going on llama safari at our local city farm.
• Training: you’ll get up to £500 annual training budget to spend on your professional development. 
• Pension: we will pay 5% of your salary, matching the 5% you pay, to make a total of 10% annual contributions.
• Holidays: we offer 25 days holiday per year, plus bank holidays, and we close the office over Christmas.

Interested?

If this sounds like you, please apply by sending us: 

1. Links to the 5 pieces of social media content you’ve created that you are proudest of.
2. Your CV (no more than 2 pages).

We expect to receive a lot of applications for this role. To help yours stand out, please give us a couple of sentences in your email as to why you want to work at Cast from Clay. 

It’s also worth saying that we want to hear your genuine voice, so please don’t use AI to write this. Not least because there will be lots of people who will use AI, and it’s always amusing for us when a bunch of very different people all write the same thing…!

Things to note

• You need to have permission to work in the U.K. already – we cannot sponsor visas for this role.
• We are an equal opportunities employer and we are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, class, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race, or is disadvantaged by conditions or requirements which cannot be shown to be justifiable.
