About GBM

We own and operate a network of highly-engaged youth communities on social media. 

We have numerous pages including Great British Memes, That Girl Page, That Student Page and MORE, which across all social channels reach over 500 million every month. The vast majority of our social following also comes from within our home market - the UK. 

At GBM, we take pride in what we do and make sure the client's needs are met while considering the needs and wants of our nurtured communities/audiences. All campaigns have a lot of care and attention to detail with nothing going live unless the GBM team are 100% happy with everything. 

So to sum it up for ya, we are a young start-up who are chronically online making organic and paid memes and video content for the masses…

The Role

We’re looking for an experienced, creative, and social-first Brand & Content Manager who lives and breathes social, storytelling and culture. Someone who can take a spark of an idea and turn it into high-impact campaigns that people want to share, not just scroll past. This position will sit within our ever growing Brand & Content team, working alongside other creatives but owning your own projects and creatives. In this senior and central role, you’ll support the development and rollout of content strategies, help nurture client relationships, and work closely with internal teams to deliver best-in-class branded content that resonates.

You’ll also assist with the creation of content for our owned social pages where needed. You should be comfortable planning, attending, and occasionally hosting shoots in public spaces with the team. You’ll jump in where needed, take ownership of your responsibilities, and play a vital role in making our content output the best it can be.

Key responsibilities include: 

• Lead on end-to-end campaign creation, from ideation and creative development to production, delivery, performance analysis.

• Collaborate with clients, agencies and wider teams to turn briefs into scroll-stopping content and tangible outcomes.
