Senior Social Media Content Creator

Are you an experienced social content specialist? With a versatile technical design skillset? Would you like to help communicate our brand’s values and mission, strengthen our community, reach new and diverse audiences, and make the British Heart Foundation (BHF) matter to more people?

As our Senior Social Media Content Creator, you’ll produce industry-leading, channel-first, mission-led content across our social channels. 

Alongside creating social-first platform content, a large part of this role will be content curation, gathering relevant content from the variety of new and existing trusted sources at BHF. 

There’s a wealth of BHF experts to work with, from Cardiac Nurses and Researchers to Nutritionists, as well as opportunities for collaborations with Celebrities, Ambassadors and Partners. You'll use your skills to help us get closer to a world free from the fear of heart and circulatory diseases.

This role requires regular travel across the U.K. to attend key live events, conferences, and locations for content shoots, this built into normal working hours.
