Job ID: 40550199

Budget: €15 – €25 EUR

We are looking for an experienced UK-based Community Manager / Social Media Content Creator to support two established travel brands: Travel Republic and Netflights.

The freelancer must be based in the United Kingdom and have excellent UK English, a strong understanding of UK social media trends, and good knowledge of the UK travel market.

We need someone to create, prepare and manage social media content for both brands across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube Shorts. The role is not limited to video content; it includes creating a mix of Reels, carousels, Stories, short-form videos and occasional static posts.

The selected freelancer will work from a clearly structured content calendar, which includes publishing dates, content themes, campaign priorities, copy guidance, visual references and examples of the type of content required. We need someone who can follow a detailed brief accurately, while also bringing creativity and initiative to the execution.

Main responsibilities include:

* Creating social media content for Travel Republic and Netflights, including Reels, carousels, Stories, short-form videos and static posts where needed.
* Adapting content for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
* Creating and organising Instagram and Facebook Stories for both brands, focused on destinations, offers, travel inspiration, product highlights and engagement.
* Writing clear, engaging and brand-appropriate captions in UK English.
* Preparing, scheduling or publishing posts across the relevant platforms.
* Using Canva to create carousels, Stories, static assets and branded social content.
* Using CapCut to edit Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts and other short-form video content.
* Selecting suitable visuals, clips, layouts, hooks, captions, audio and formats based on the content brief.
* Responding to comments and direct messages that are not related to customer service.
* Escalating customer service queries to the appropriate internal team when required.
* Monitoring community engagement and identifying recurring questions, comments, trends or content opportunities.
* Preparing a monthly social media report using an existing reporting template.
* Suggesting content ideas, trends, formats, audio, hooks or creative opportunities relevant to each brand.
* Helping maintain a consistent tone of voice, visual identity and brand presence across both brands.

The expected publishing frequency is approximately two to four posts per week, depending on business needs and the content calendar.

The role will initially require around eight hours per week, either as one full working day or split across the week.

Required skills:

* Strong experience creating social media content.
* Strong knowledge of Canva and CapCut.
* Experience with Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
* Excellent UK English copywriting skills.
* Good understanding of social-first content, short-form video, Stories and carousel formats.
* Ability to follow detailed briefs and visual references.
* Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
* Experience with travel, lifestyle, hospitality, consumer or e-commerce brands is highly desirable.

Please include examples of social media accounts, Reels, carousels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, Stories or other content you have previously created or managed. Travel-related examples are especially welcome. If possible, please also include examples of content created using Canva and CapCut.

This is an ongoing freelance role, starting with approximately eight hours per week, with the potential to grow depending on performance, content needs and business requirements.
