Social Media Specialist

What You’ll Do

We are looking for a hands-on, self-directed Social Media Specialist to take operational control of all social media channels across two distinct brands: atypicalfilms (ATF) and Bandits.

This is an operator role, not a high-level strategy/ corporate manager position. You will be on ground, shooting BTS content, writing punchy copy, cutting edits, maintaining rolling publishing calendars, and managing channels daily without needing hand-holding.

You will help manage two very different brand aesthetics:

• atypicalfilms (ATF): Considered setups, high-bar visual standards, and polished behind-the-scenes filmmaking storytelling.

• Bandits: High-velocity, platform-native content capturing raw energy, culture, and real-time work.

What You’ll Do

• Strategise & Plan: Maintain distinct, rolling content calendars.

• Concept: Generate continuous hooks, ideas, and short-form concepts tied to real production work, company culture, and behind-the-scenes moments.

• Shoot: Capture on-the-ground footage and stills

• Edit: Cut, finish, and format content to platform-native specifications (Reels, TikToks, Shorts, Linkedin posts).

• Write: Draft high-retention hooks, platform-native captions, and short-form scripts in the correct voice for each channel.

• Manage: Take full end-to-end channel ownership—publishing schedules, platform administration, and basic DM/comment triage across all platforms.

• Report: Deliver a light monthly view of performance and watch-time metrics, doubling down on what works.

What We’re Looking For

• Self-Directed Operator: You don’t need daily task-setting or hand-holding. You see what needs to be shot on set, capture it, edit it, and post it.

• Dual Shooting/Editing Skillset: You can shoot and edit competently on a phone or lightweight gear—understanding when speed beats polish.

• Strong Hook-First Instincts: You have a natural feel for short-form video, text-on-screen hooks, scroll-stopping captions, and native platform trends.

• Multi-Brand Mastery: Prior experience running multiple brand accounts simultaneously with distinct brand voices is a major plus. And so is solid writing skills that is versatile

• Performance Mindset: You know the difference between content that performs and content that just exists to fill a grid.
