Durban | Meat Industry | Creative. Strategic. Engaging.

Our client is looking for a Social Media Manager who gets it. Someone who knows how to plan, create, and manage content that not only looks good but converts.

If you're creative, organised, and ready to make an impact across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube, this one’s for you.

What you'll be doing :

  • Develop and run a clear social media strategy that supports business goals.
  • Create and schedule high-quality, engaging content across all platforms.
  • Collaborate with designers to bring fresh campaign ideas to life.
  • Spot trends and jump on real-time opportunities to engage audiences.
  • Manage community interactions — respond to comments, DMs, and mentions.
  • Track content performance, analyse data, and report on key metrics.
  • Research competitors and emerging platforms to keep the brand ahead.
  • Plan and manage paid ad campaigns to grow engagement and reach.
  • Build influencer and brand partnerships that boost visibility.
  • Stay on top of algorithm updates and platform changes.
  • Align social media efforts with broader marketing campaigns.
  • Keep the content calendar up to date and ensure consistent posting.
  • Support with social coverage at events, promotions, and live streams.

What we’re looking for :

  • Previous experience as a Social Media Manager, Digital Marketer, or related role.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Public Relations, or a related field advantageous.
  • Proven experience managing social media strategies across multiple platforms.
  • Knowledge of content creation tools and video editing software (experience with tools like Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop) and Canva).
  • Proficiency in using social media management and analytics tools such as Hootsuite, Buffer, Sprout Social, and native platform analytics.
  • Strong understanding of various social media platforms and their unique content formats, best practices, and audience dynamics.
  • Excellent copywriting and storytelling skills, with the ability to craft compelling content that drives engagement.
  • Strong analytical skills to interpret data, track performance metrics, and adjust strategies based on insights.
  • Creativity and the ability to brainstorm innovative social media campaigns that capture attention and encourage audience interaction.
  • This is a great opportunity to join a dynamic team in a fast-moving industry — where your creativity will be valued, your voice heard, and your work seen.
