About Us

Before diving into the specifics of the role, we want you to understand our culture. At Havas Host, we are a beautifully, brilliantly varied bunch. This diversity makes our workplace vibrant and exciting. Regardless of who you are or what you're into, we all abide by a few simple ‘Unusual Works’ behaviors that keep us aligned:

• BE CAN DO: Usual excuses hold us back, but being unusually Can Do propels us forward. Don’t think about why something won’t work; focus on what you can do to help it succeed. Take the lead rather than expecting someone else to do it.
• BE CURIOUS: Originality comes from venturing into the unusual. Challenge yourself every day. Ask unusual questions and seek unusual answers—from yourself and your clients. Continuously challenge your assumptions and perspectives.
• BE FEARLESS: Achieving unusual works is about embracing the untested. Fear of failure is usual, but being fearless to try is part of unusual works. What’s the worst that can happen? We try something else!
• BE COLLECTIVE: Usually, agencies excel at one thing. Unusually, our superpower is our collective capability. Cohesive collectives don’t build themselves; it takes individual actions. So say hello, cross the floor, seek to work with others, respect what they bring, and above all, celebrate together.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop innovative social media strategies and content plans that integrate within larger campaign objectives.
• Create social briefs that inspire creatives to develop outstanding social ideas.

• Stay updated on emerging trends, algorithm changes, and best practices in social media marketing, and integrate them into strategy development.

Requirements

• Previous experience in social strategy development, preferably within an advertising agency or digital marketing environment.
• 3-5 years of experience working across social, brand, and PR.
• Strong understanding of social media platforms (TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.), their features, and audience dynamics.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to craft compelling content and articulate complex ideas effectively.
• Strong project management skills, with the ability to prioritise tasks, meet deadlines, and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• A collaborative team player with a proactive attitude and a passion for staying ahead of industry trends.

At Havas, we are committed to building a future that is inclusive to all, where you can bring your whole self to work and feel valued, respected, and supported to succeed.
