We need a highly versatile, creative, and data-driven individual to take complete ownership of our digital presence. You should be equally comfortable behind a camera capturing the beautiful details of our metalwork as you are behind a desk analysing ad spend and audience metrics.

We ask that you have significant experience across major social and digital platforms, with a strong ability in both front-end content creation and back-end campaign management. Above all, you should be passionate about design and have a willingness to continually innovate.

This role offers a real opportunity to evolve and grow within an ambitious company, shaping the voice of a quickly growing design brand as we scale internationally. Our staff are our most valued assets, and we always strive to create an exciting, inspiring workplace full of highly-talented people.

    • Possess strong photography and videography skills, with an exceptional eye for detail, light, and composition to capture our luxury surfaces and furniture.
    • Be highly analytical, with the ability to navigate back-end platforms to track ROI, optimise digital advertising, and report on project success.
    • Have excellent copywriting skills, with an ability to communicate effectively to our target audience of high-end interior designers and architects.
    • Be highly organised, thorough, and not shy of a little admin.
    • Possess a full UK driving licence and be able to commute to our workshop in Washington with their own vehicle.
    • Be happy to get their hands dirty when required, working closely with our workshop and finishing teams to capture behind-the-scenes content.

The role will cover the following responsibilities:

  • Channel Management: Complete ownership of all social media output, managing daily posting, community engagement, and audience growth across Instagram, LinkedIn, and other relevant platforms.
  • Content Creation: Capturing all social content (photography and video) of our manufacturing processes, standard products, and bespoke commissions, ensuring it reflects our brand style and quality.
  • Campaign Leadership: Leading and directing product shoot campaigns from conceptualisation through to final delivery.
  • Digital Advertising & Budgets: Building, managing, and optimising paid campaigns via Meta Business Suite and Google Ads. Managing the marketing budget to ensure high ROI and lead generation.
  • Email Marketing: Designing, writing, and distributing regular newsletters via Mailchimp to our trade clients and subscribers.
