Role Overview

We are looking for a creative, hands-on Marketing & Social Executive to support Pepper’s internal marketing efforts as our in-house team continues to grow.


You will work closely with our Senior Marketing Manager, supporting the execution of Pepper’s marketing strategy and taking day-to-day ownership of our agency social channels. This role is focused on bringing strategic ideas to life through engaging social content, short-form video, and design support.


This is not a client-facing role. All work is for Pepper as an agency brand. However, the creativity, care, and strategic thinking applied to Pepper’s marketing must match the standard we deliver for our clients.


This is a busy, fast-moving role that requires a proactive attitude, strong creative execution, and a willingness to learn. There is plenty of opportunity to develop skills beyond social media as the team and agency continue to scale.


Key Responsibilities


Agency Social Media

  • Support and help manage Pepper’s organic social media channels on a day-to-day basis, working closely with the Senior Marketing Manager.
  • Create, edit, and publish short-form video content for platforms such as LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok
  • Edit social-first video using tools such as CapCut, with a strong understanding of hooks, pacing, captions, and platform-native trends
  • Create fun, engaging, and strategic social posts using Canva
  • Maintain Pepper’s brand tone, visual identity, and creative standards across all channels


Creative & Design Support

  • Support internal campaigns, announcements, and new business initiatives with creative assets
  • Design ad hoc graphics, presentations, and marketing materials using Canva
  • Help bring strategic marketing ideas to life through creative execution
  • Support content planning, light filming, and shoot preparation where required


Marketing Team Support

  • Work closely with the Senior Marketing Manager to support wider marketing initiatives
  • Assist with campaign delivery, content calendars, and internal deadlines
  • Be a reliable creative support across a growing in-house marketing function
  • Contribute ideas and creative thinking as confidence and experience grow


About You

  • Confident using Canva to create engaging, on-brand social content
  • Strong short-form video editing skills, ideally using CapCut or similar software
  • A good eye for design, trends, and what performs well on social media
  • Hands-on, proactive, and comfortable working at pace
  • Organised, reliable, and happy juggling multiple priorities
  • Curious, willing to learn, and excited by skill development beyond social media
  • Comfortable taking ownership while working closely with a manager
  • A great communicator who enjoys collaborating, sharing ideas, and learning through feedback


Nice to Haves

  • Experience working in a social media agency or in-house marketing team
  • Demonstrable experience in creating social media content (whether personal content creation or business)
  • Interest in brand building and new business marketing
  • Basic understanding of social performance metrics
  • Experience with filming or basic content production
  • Happy to be on-camera in Pepper social content


Why Join Pepper

  • Join a small but ambitious in-house marketing team with big growth goals, working alongside a much larger client-facing team. You will be closely connected to the wider agency, with clear visibility into how marketing directly supports new business and agency growth.
  • Company culture is important to us. While we work flexibly, we come together regularly for quarterly in-person team meetings and content days. These moments are key to collaboration, creativity, and maintaining the strong team culture that Pepper values.
  • Have real autonomy over Pepper’s social presence
  • Play a direct role in driving new business opportunities for the agency
  • Develop creatively and strategically as the team continues to scale
  • Work in a supportive, high-standard creative environment where marketing is taken seriously


Competencies

At Pepper, we maintain a Human Approach in all that we do. Every team member is expected to demonstrate:

  • Proactivity
  • Problem Solving
  • Supportiveness
  • Ownership
  • Pride in Work


Interview Process

We aim to keep our interview process clear, efficient, and focused on your skills and potential.

  1. We review all applications and CVs submitted
  2. Shortlisted candidates are invited to a 30 minute introductory call with a member of our marketing team
  3. Successful candidates are asked to complete a short proficiency task
  4. Candidates then present their task in a 30 minute follow-up call
  5. All candidates are informed of the final decision



BENEFITS

  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, and additional days for tenure accrual
  • Sabbatical opportunities
  • Contribution towards your remote working setup
  • Work From Anywhere incentive
  • Active Lunch: work flexibly and take a longer lunch to stay active
