Who We Are

Paul Claessen Consulting is recruiting on behalf of Design Studio Perth.

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER | DESIGN STUDIO PERTH

Own the entire social media process for Design Studio Perth and our clients, from planning monthly content calendars and briefing the creative team to writing captions, managing deadlines, securing approvals, scheduling and publishing posts, engaging with audiences and reporting on results.

WHO WE ARE

Design Studio Perth is a branding and marketing agency based in Perth, Western Australia, helping established WA businesses grow with confidence. Since 2020, we’ve worked with more than 300 businesses across industrial, B2B and professional services, from mining services, scaffolding and machinery to law firms and consultancies.

We bring brand strategy, messaging, design and marketing together to help businesses stand out and connect with the right clients.

Social media is often the first place people meet our clients’ brands. We want every account we manage to deliver a world class experience. You’ll lead it.

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER

We’re looking for a social media manager who combines robust writing, creative thinking and attention to detail with the ability to keep multiple accounts running smoothly.

You’ll brief and direct our videographer, graphic designer and copywriter to turn strategy into standout content, with clear targets so you know what great looks like.

The Role

Lead social media for Design Studio Perth and our clients, from planning and content creation through to approval, publishing and reporting.





Your work will include:

- Building monthly content calendars for every account and securing approval well ahead of time.

- Briefing the videographer, graphic designer and copywriter, managing their deadlines and checking their work against the brief.

- Writing copy and captions that reflect each brand’s voice and messaging.

- Proofreading every post for spelling, tags, links, dates and brand accuracy before submitting it for approval.

- Scheduling and publishing approved content, and managing comments and DMs across every account.

- Reporting results to clients each month in plain language.

- Running paid campaigns when briefed.

- Bringing forward content ideas from client work, events and relevant trends.

- Delivering work on time and flagging any potential delays early.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You’re a strong writer with an instinct for what makes people stop scrolling. You care about the details and catch the wrong tag, broken link or typo before content goes live.

You’re thorough and process-driven. You work to the brief and brand guidelines, ask when something isn’t clear, and take pride in getting it right.





You can keep several accounts and a content team moving at once, with clear communication and consistent follow-through.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

- At least two to three years’ experience managing social media, ideally in an agency or across several clients.

- Hands-on experience with Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook.

- Experience planning and managing short-form video content.

- Strong copywriting and proofreading skills.

- The ability to brief creative team members and manage content deadlines.

- Confidence reviewing performance and explaining results to clients.

- Paid social and Canva or Adobe Express experience would be a bonus.

WHO THIS SUITS

This role suits someone who enjoys owning the whole social media process, from shaping the calendar to checking the final post and understanding what performed.

You’ll be comfortable directing a content team, managing multiple brands and being accountable for quality, deadlines and results.

WHAT’S IN IT

- Varied projects across mining, trades and professional services.

- Established brands with real stories to tell.

- A videographer, graphic designer and copywriter alongside you to help deliver the content.

- Direct access to the business owner.

- A small team where your contribution is visible and valued.

- Clear expectations for quality and delivery.

- Freelance engagement, paid on a project-by-project basis or full time.

THE PRACTICAL BITS

You’ll need a reliable fibre internet connection and backup power.
