Your goal is to move Starling out of the banking category and into the heart of culture. You will treat content as our primary engine for growth, enabling and celebrating our audiences to show the world what it truly means to be good with money. You won't just manage channels; you will build a content ecosystem that ensures Starling is the most discoverable and trusted voice in the digital age. Please apply by close of business Monday 20th July. Key Responsibilities: Strategic Oversight & Channel Ownership: You will own the overarching strategy for Starling's social presence. This means defining the specific role of each channel (from TikTok to LinkedIn), establishing how the brand shows up authentically on each, and ensuring a cohesive visual and tonal "umbrella" across our entire digital footprint. Own Content output: Move beyond ad-hoc posting to build and scale "Content Franchises" and solid talent and creator strategy in consistent, high-value formats across TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn that helps achieve our objectives along the funnel.

Audience understanding: Ability to understand audience's needs and interest to create content they will want to watch and engage with and find talent and creators that fits with their lifestyle - aligned with our tone of voice and brand narrative. Algorithm & AI Literacy: A deep, intuitive understanding of platform algorithms, GEO, and how LLMs (Large Language Models) categorize and surface brand content. Creative Intuition: The ability to brief and "greenlight" content that feels native to the platform, not like a repurposed TV ad. You will be able to push how a brand behaves on social beyond memes and reactive trends expectations. Risk and compliance: Appetite to learn and accountability to tackle risk to avoid financial promotions that could damage the brand. Ability to operate at speed to ensure the right approvals and audit trails are honoured. Data-Driven Rigor: Expert-level use of Sprout, native analytics, and social listening tools to prove ROI and pivot strategy in real-time. Niche Navigator: Experience in identifying and accessing fragmented audiences-knowing that "the mass market" is now actually a collection of thousands of specific niches.
