We’re Hiring: Part-Time Marketing & Social Media Assistant
Part-time, hybrid, based in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire. Join a small team doing big picture marketing work for growing SME’s.
Hours: Part-time, 15–20 hours per week to start (flexible, roughly 3–4 hours each weekday morning), with scope to grow over time
Location: Hybrid, in the office 4 days a week in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire
Reports to: Our Content & Creative Lead - Tamika Loftie-Eaton
WHAT WE VALUE
Growth, integrity, focus, participation and initiative. If you like taking ownership, improving how things run, and being part of a small, professional but friendly team, you’ll fit right in here. We’re looking for someone who takes a task and thinks “got it, I’ll get that done.
The Role
BCB Marketing helps small businesses and SMEs become more visible without needing an in-house marketing team, handling social media, content, digital marketing, strategy, design and marketing support, including specialist work with care providers. We’re a small, growing team, and everyone here has a meaningful role to play.
We’re looking for a part-time Marketing & Social Media Assistant to support our Content & Creative Lead with day-to-day implementation across our client portfolio. This is a hands-on, internal role; you won’t be client-facing day to day, but the work you do keeps our clients’ marketing moving. You’ll take content plans and strategy from brief to finished output: scheduling posts, building graphics, drafting copy, laying out reports, and keeping everything organised. Over time, as you get to know our clients and ways of working, there’s real scope to take on more.
-
Turning content plans into scheduled posts for multiple clients across Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn
Creating on-brand graphics in Canva using existing templates
Drafting short, clear post copy from supplied angles, notes and briefs
Scheduling posts and stories, applying correct tags and links, and logging activity
Creating simple Reels and short-form video content
Monitoring basic engagement, responding using approved phrases, and flagging anything that needs attention
-
• Laying out newsletters, case studies and simple PDFs from provided copy and brand guidelines
• Sourcing and organising imagery from stock libraries and client folders
• Preparing simple slide decks and visuals for strategy and performance review meetings
• Supporting website content updates and Google Business Profile posts
• Formatting blogs and other digital content, and proofreading marketing materials
-
Pulling monthly stats from social platforms, Google Business Profile, websites and email tools
Populating reporting templates and client performance trackers
Maintaining organised asset libraries and content calendars for each client
Keeping task lists up to date and flagging when work is complete or blocked
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Essential:
1–2 years’ experience in a junior marketing, content or social media role (agency, in-house or freelance), or a portfolio that shows what you can do. Initiative and drive matter just as much to us as a qualification, if not more
Confident with Canva (or similar), with a good eye for layout and brand consistency
Familiar with Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn, along with tools like Meta Business Suite, Buffer and Birdeye, and willing to learn others
Strong written English and excellent attention to detail
Highly organised, able to follow a brief, work independently, and manage multiple small tasks and deadlines across different accounts
Desirable:
• Experience with service businesses or within the care sector
• Basic familiarity with email marketing tools (e.g. Mailchimp) and website platforms (e.g. Kentico)
• Experience with scheduling platforms, Google Analytics, Google Business Profile, Asana, Slack or similar project-management and communication tools
We’re not looking for a particular degree or qualification. We care much more about how you think, work and communicate.
HOW TO APPLY
Please complete our short application form and attach your CV and portfolio. We’d also love to see examples of your work: social media accounts you’ve managed, content you’ve created, Canva designs, university projects, freelance work, or your own social media. We’re more interested in how you think and create than in a polished portfolio, so don’t worry if it’s informal. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to interview.
