Role

Who you are

It's a role for a natural content creator with a strong creative and commercial instinct, who loves owning a channel and making it grow
3+ years in an organic social / social media management role, ideally within a DTC, ecommerce or consumer brand
Proven track record growing an Instagram community and running influencer, partnership and gifting campaigns that delivered measurable reach and revenue (with examples to show for it)
Someone who’s creative, commercially sharp and always across what's resonating in culture, with a knack for spotting opportunities, building relationships, and turning them into results
A self-starting, highly organised working style: comfortable owning a channel end-to-end, juggling multiple creators and partners at once, and working cross-functionally with content, paid and wider brand teams

What the job involves

This is the role that owns Dock & Bay on Instagram, our biggest brand-building channel, and it's as hands-on as it gets
You won't just plan the content, you'll make it: filming, starring in and editing content that stops the scroll, often shooting solo and taking an idea all the way to a finished post yourself
On top of that you'll own our organic presence end to end: the calendar, the community, and the constant read on what's working and what's next
From there, you'll extend our reach through the people around the brand: growing us on LinkedIn, building an always-on gifting and creator engine, landing partnerships people notice, and turning our affiliate programme into real revenue
And because our world is anything but a desk, there's real opportunity to travel for shoots as we grow the brand in new places
Own our organic social strategy and channel presence, with Instagram as our lead brand-building channel and LinkedIn as a growing secondary one
Create the content yourself: filming, starring in and editing content for Instagram, often shooting solo… and collaborating with the Performance Content Creator on shoot planning across Instagram and TikTok
Plan and own the content calendar, keeping a consistent, relevant flow across the week, and play an active part in our weekly content forum, bringing ideas and community insight to shape what we make
Work closely with the Performance Content Creator on shoot planning and to keep Instagram, TikTok and paid aligned, supporting on TikTok lives when needed
Lead community management and stay on top of trends and what makes thumb-stopping content, building genuine relationships with our audience and adapting quickly to keep us growing
Own all influencer and creator relationships end-to-end, building a pipeline of relevant creators and long-term ambassadors across outdoor, travel, active and lifestyle, nurturing them in person as well as online and keeping a close eye on ROI
Lead our brand partnerships and collaborations, from finding the right partners to activating and managing them
Run our Instagram affiliate programme and grow social commerce, turning organic content into a measurable revenue channel
Build and run an always-on gifting and seeding programme
Report on what's working across organic, influencer, partnerships and affiliate, using data and trends to keep improving

Our take

Founders and avid travellers, Andy and Ben were tired of towels that were too bulky for their backpacks. Noticing a gap in the market, the pair got to work on designing a light, compact towel that could dry quickly.

In 2017, the pair headed for Dragon's Den, securing a £75k investment from Deborah Meaden. Using the investment to give back to the planet, Dock & Bay products are now made from 100% recycled materials.

The capital gained also gave the company the ability to work with charities like WWF, Whale & Dolphin Conversation (WDC) and One Tree Planted, donating a chunk of their profits to charity as part of their continued company mission.
