You’ll have ownership of how the brand comes to life across social — shaping the content strategy, developing ideas and formats, and building a digital presence that people want to follow, engage with and return to.
This is a great opportunity for someone with a strong background in social media who wants to use those skills to help build a highly influential brand from the ground up. You’ll have real agency to develop and test ideas, work across interesting campaigns and stories, and build a strong network across luxury, culture, business and society in West Africa.
You’ll work closely with leadership on the overall brand and editorial direction, with access to designers, freelance writers, photographers and videographers to bring ideas to life. As part of a small startup team, you’ll have the freedom to move quickly, experiment and have a meaningful impact on how the brand grows.
