Social Media Strategist / Consultant
Deadline for applications: 5 Feb 2010
Why should brands, businesses or public sector organisations become involved in Social Media?
If you know the answer to this question - or can at least have a stab at it - then we want to hear from you.
As a Social Media agency, Qube determines and manages the role for Social Media in each of their clients brand strategies. We are looking for someone who not only 'gets' Social Media and social networking tools but who is capable of thinking strategically and creatively about their application.
We are after someone who is fascinated by digital/social technology and how it is impacting our lives. Someone who can thrive in an open creative environment and personally contribute to the growth of the agency through ground breaking Social Media strategies and initiatives.
We are not necessarily looking for someone who has worked in Social Media before but you will need to have a solid experience in brand communications, ideally from a digital perspective. You will have good business acumen and a strong planning and/or research skill set, be able to take a brief, analyse it and propose the best solution.
You will take a leading role on key accounts so the ability to manage both projects and relationships with senior clients is essential. You will be able to demonstrate superb account management skills (attentive, confident, pro-active and intuitive).
Overall, you will ensure the client receives the best service and the most successful Social Media strategies possible.
Although you will have access to a team of assistants and support from senior consultants, you will be willing and able to deliver social data mining / research, community mapping, community outreach and basic copy writing.
We are after an all-rounder who is willing to take on a challenging but rewarding role in this unique space.
If you think you fit the bill then we'd love to hear from you.
