Junior Social Media Coordinator

Milkbar Digital

Wanted: Junior Social Media Coordinator

Are you looking for your first step into the exciting world of social media marketing? Are you either a recent graduate eagerly seeking an opportunity to sink your teeth into some real-world experience, or have a passion for all things creative and keen to explore a career in digital?

We are currently looking for a Junior Social Media Coordinator to join our team. This rare opportunity will see you working across a number of FMCG, retail and e-commerce brands in our portfolio, working alongside experienced account managers to deliver compelling, results-driven creative and advertising.

The opportunity is full-time and based from our office/studio in Prahran.

Your key responsibilities may include:

  • Social Media Platform Management: You’ll be responsible for executing the day-to-day on platforms including Meta (Instagram and Facebook) and TikTok.
  • Social Media Content Schedules: You’ll be working with our team to create and deliver social media content schedules for our clients – including graphics, stories and copy. Experience creating social media posts/assets is integral, as well as a strong design + trend eye.
  • Social Media Boosting: You will work alongside our team to execute some advertising campaigns in Meta and TikTok Ads Managers. We will show you the ropes, but you'll need to have strong attention-to-detail and be a fast learner.
  • Shoot Assistance: You'll be an assistant on our content shoots, which are hard work but a lot of fun. A shoot day can involve anything from sourcing us the perfect strawberry to holding a light to helping wash dishes.
  • Creative Ideation and Strategy: You’ll have a natural love and appreciation of commercial and branded marketing and are a creative thinker who can come up with exciting and fresh content ideas that provide solutions to our range of clients.
  • Ability to work at a fast pace and juggle multiple balls at once (seriously, agency life is about pace and keeping many plates spinning at once - it's not for everyone, and that's okay!)
  • Fast, proactive and enthusiastic learner who is happy to give anything a go
  • You show initiative and a willingness to ‘roll up the sleeves’ to get a job done
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills - perfect punctuation and proof-reading is a must
  • Genuine passion for digital and social media marketing - you are TikTok obsessed and have perfected your FYP
  • A natural ability with design, branding and aesthetics
  • A team player who will enjoy our culture and bring positive vibes to the team!

Milkbar Digital is a boutique social media marketing + creative content agency located in the heart of Prahran. We have a fun relaxed office culture and work with a number of exciting brands across the food, fashion and retail spaces. Whilst the clients we service may be large brands, we ourselves are very much a small business.
