Job Description
We’re looking for an enthusiastic, creative and curious Social Media Intern to help us make, distribute and manage content for Dacia (part of Renault Groupe) in the UK. Overseen by a Social Media Manager, this is a great opportunity for a community manager looking to take the next step up, or an existing social media exec looking for a new challenge in their social media career.
This role is definitely more than community management. You’ll be client facing working closely with the Social Media Manager to deliver an ongoing program of ‘always-on’ social content and social first campaigns.
You will be expected to be a knowledgeable voice when it comes to social and how consumers use it, have a keen eye for content that is engaging and shareable, be part-client sounding board, part-copywriter (and support the creative teams in developing content that really works in social), and be results-focused.
You will need to immerse yourself in the brands you work on, and with both your accounts being leading automotive clients, an interest in anything car related is a must. You will be working full time across the Dacia brand, developing and engaging with their social communities, inspiring creative and reactive opportunities, finding and working with influencers, helping to plan and develop content strategies, attending events, activating sponsorships and generally helping us raise the bar of automotive social. There are some amazing opportunities and it would be great to have someone onboard that will relish these.
Be prepared to spend time with clients to really get under the skin of the brand on a regular basis and for some evening/weekend work when necessary. Whilst our office hours are 09.00 to 5.30, like most social teams, we’re willing to be online outside those hours.
Alongside the rest of the Social Team, you will be involved in reporting on the performance of the social channels and content as well as feel confident to make your recommendations for optimisation in line with KPIs and business objectives.
There will be a lot of learning on the job and you’ll need to be a proactive multi-tasker with a ‘can do’ attitude. We’re looking for someone who is great with clients and can seamlessly be “the lynch pin” between the agency, brand and community.
Key Responsibilities
You will be expected to be confident in tackling the following tasks:

Community Management – nurturing and growing social communities and leading consumer engagement in all social channels and on all posts, both paid and organic. You’ll be confident to implement crisis management processes and treat escalations with due diligence and a calm head under the guidance of the Social Media Manager.
Reactive and Proactive Social – responsible for identifying key trends and opportunities for your brands to engage with and being a key member of the team brainstorming what content we can create that will be appropriate.
Analytics and Reporting – support the Social Media Manager to produce reports on the performance of the social channels you are managing and feed into the insights and recommendations. Adept at providing top-line results to clients for various content and activity ongoing and ad-hoc.
Paid Media – at least a basic understanding of how paid media works across social to be able to work alongside the paid media team learning and delivering ‘paid for’ media activity.

Events – attending and managing social presences from both client events and social media industry events.
Social Knowledge and Trends – you’ll be an expert on all things social and expected to stay on top of and educate clients, others in your team and the wider agency on platform updates and innovations, competitor activity in social and more.
You should have a strong knowledge of major social softwares and tools:

Candidate Profile
Passionate – you have an infectious passion for social media, brands and our industry and outwardly share this passion with your clients and team.
