Careers

Join the Hotfoot Team

  • Open role: Social Media & Content Creator

    We’re looking for a talented ‘Social Media & Content Creator’ to join our team.

    Hotfoot Design is a multi award-winning creative and digital agency based in the beautiful Grade II Listed Storey building in the centre of historic Lancaster (just down from the train station, right next to Lancaster Castle) with lovely views of the city and a café bar on the ground floor.

    As an integrated agency, we offer a broad range of related services all under one roof – including brand strategy and design, marketing campaigns, website design and digital marketing.

    We work with growing clients in a range of specialist sectors including hospitality and leisure, luxury retail, health and beauty, advanced manufacturing, professional services, technology, the arts, and the charity and public sectors.

    Our clients range from iconic brands and large organisations to growing SMEs and start-ups across the UK and beyond, including the NHS, Rolls-Royce, DCC plc, The Dukes, Windermere Jetty, Greystonegill Distillery, and many others.

    The role

    Your role will be to help communicate what makes our clients special to their target audiences across a variety of digital channels, adhering to their brand guidelines and tone of voice – with a particular focus on social media campaigns.

    You’ll work closely with our directors and marketing manager (who you will report to), as well as the broader team at Hotfoot, and will have direct client contact.

    We’re looking for someone with excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an eye for detail and proofreading skills. Experience working within a design, digital and/or marketing agency will be advantageous.

    You’ll be brilliant at adopting the right tone and getting a message across, whether it’s a Facebook post, Instagram campaign or TikTok video. And you’re comfortable creating and posting content across these channels. You have experience in running social media ad campaigns, reporting on performance, and are always on top of the latest marketing trends.

    We’re looking for someone adaptable that can write a witty campaign that references a viral trend for a lifestyle brand one moment, and a more sober-minded piece for a B2B client the next, without ever forgetting that behind target audiences are real people.

    You’ll be bright, enthusiastic and full of ideas. You will be good at focusing on the task at hand, juggling competing priorities, and producing great quality work.

    You’ll be brilliant at thinking on your feet and getting things done.

    Our clients depend on us to deliver for them every day, and you’ll relish the opportunity to help them smash their goals.

    To help you hit the ground running, we’ll set you up with a beautiful Mac and provide you with the support you need so you feel right at home.

    We’re also a friendly bunch and there are plenty of opportunities to progress within our growing agency.

    We offer

    • Competitive salary
    • Career progression and training opportunities
    • Flexible / part-remote working options
    • 33 days paid holidays (including public and bank holidays)
    • Friday lunches
    • Friendly team, growing company
    • City centre location
    • Regular social get-togethers
