  • Help to manage and develop our social media channels, providing clear best practice to colleagues. 
  • Measured against clear KPIs, with a creative element to the role in determining how best to reach specific audiences both daily and during big events throughout the year. 
  • Work closely with stakeholders across social media in newsrooms, delivering best practice on content distribution across platforms. 
  • A key role in establishing our content as the gold standard amongst the audience - and ensuring its ethos and principles are communicated to the wider network.
  • Monitor audience data and explore growth opportunities using analytics to inform content creation decisions. 
  • Use analytics platforms and audience analysis tools to identify when to create content and how to deliver it to audiences.
  • Plan and commission content around large evergreen audience opportunities across football.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Exceptional communication skills.
  • An ability to monitor audience trends and think creatively to serve them.
