Sonic Summary

info
  • The role of Digital Marketing & Social Media Manager involves managing the Jack Friedman brand across various digital platforms during a maternity leave cover.
  • Candidates should have 2 to 4+ years of experience in digital marketing or related fields, preferably within luxury sectors, and possess a relevant tertiary qualification.
  • Key responsibilities include managing social media content, writing luxury brand copy, improving e-commerce content, and overseeing SEO and digital campaigns.
  • The position requires creativity, strong organizational skills, and the ability to handle multiple projects while maintaining a luxury aesthetic in marketing efforts.
  • The salary for this role is competitive, reflecting the candidate's experience and expertise in the luxury marketing domain.

We are looking for a creative, commercially minded and highly organised Digital Marketing & Social Media Manager to cover maternity leave and manage the Jack Friedman brand across social media, content, e-commerce, SEO and campaign activity. This role goes well beyond general social media coordination: the successful candidate will be responsible for luxury jewellery marketing, brand storytelling, content creation, digital campaigns and reporting across the full marketing function.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing Instagram and Facebook, organic content and paid advertising, from strategy through to publishing and reporting, including content calendars, scheduling, luxury-toned captions, and Meta Ads run strategically rather than simply boosting posts
  • Writing luxury brand copy across diamonds, engagement rings, wedding jewellery, gemstones and gifting, communicating craftsmanship, rarity and emotion without sounding generic
  • Updating and improving e-commerce and website content, applying basic SEO principles across product pages, headings and internal linking
  • Managing SEO and content marketing: keyword research, on-page SEO, Search Console and GA4 basics, and maintaining rankings for key commercial terms like engagement rings and diamond rings
  • Creating social, Reels and Story concepts, directing product photography, and editing basic video content with a strong luxury aesthetic
  • Managing campaigns end to end: concept, calendar, rollout and reporting, across seasonal moments (Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, wedding and engagement season) and product launches
  • Coordinating influencers, PR and celebrity/brand partnerships, prioritising brand alignment over follower count
  • Tracking and reporting on social, website and campaign analytics


Requirements

  • Must be able to commute reliably to the Bedfordview office and to stores as required. Own reliable transportation is essential
  • Must be available to attend special events over weekends when required (for example, occasions such as the Miss SA pageant or an LIB reunion falling on a weekend)
  • Creative, with a genuine willingness to learn, and able to handle a high workload
  • Highly organised, able to manage multiple projects and deadlines at once, with strong attention to detail
  • Proactive and commercially minded, with a natural understanding of luxury marketing versus mass-market jewellery marketing
  • 2 to 4+ years' experience in digital marketing, social media, content marketing or brand marketing, preferably within luxury, jewellery, fashion, beauty, lifestyle or retail
  • A relevant tertiary qualification (e.g. marketing, communications or design) is preferable
  • Must-have skills: Instagram and Facebook/Meta Business Suite, Canva and CapCut or similar, Microsoft Office/Google Workspace, social media scheduling platforms, basic SEO and website CMS/e-commerce experience, basic analytics and reporting, and strong copywriting ability
  • Desirable skills: Adobe Photoshop and photography skills, Google Analytics 4, Google Search Console, Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, WooCommerce or similar, Klaviyo/Mailchimp, SEO tools such as SEMrush or Ahrefs, and influencer marketing platforms
