If you're the person who watches a 45‑second video and immediately thinks “the first three seconds need to change”, this is probably for you.

We're recruiting a

Social Media & Content Manager

to work directly with a highly experienced finance professional who is building a much bigger personal brand across Instagram, LinkedIn and other social platforms.

This isn't a role where you'll inherit a six-month content calendar, resize a few Canva tiles and schedule posts.

You'll be helping decide

what we should talk about in the first place.

Property. Interest rates. Lending. Banking. Economic policy. The Australian economy. What's happening in the news — and, importantly, what it actually means for everyday people.

Then you'll turn those ideas into content people actually want to watch.

What you'll be doing: Your biggest focus will be

short-form video and social content .

You'll work directly with the person behind the brand to:

Research timely topics across finance, property, banking and the broader economy

Develop hooks, angles and content ideas that make complicated subjects interesting

Plan and film short-form video content

Edit videos into sharp, engaging social content

Manage and grow the Instagram presence

Publish and repurpose content across relevant platforms

Manage comments, engagement and day-to-day social activity

Support Meta advertising and paid social campaigns

Track what's working and continually improve reach, engagement and follower growth

Ideally, you'll bring:

Hands‑on experience creating short‑form social video

A genuinely positive eye for hooks, pacing and attention

Experience managing Instagram and other social channels

Strong written English and copywriting ability

An understanding of Meta Ads or paid social





The confidence to contribute ideas rather than simply wait for a brief

Enough commercial curiosity to understand what makes content useful, not just attractive

Experience or genuine interest in

finance, economics, property, lending or financial markets

would be a major advantage.

If the RBA makes a decision and your instinct is to understand

why it matters , we’ll probably get along.

The setup

This is a

permanent part‑time position , likely around

three days / 24 hours per week .

There is considerable flexibility around how those hours are structured.

Three full days could work.

Four shorter days could work.

School‑friendly hours could potentially work.

We’re much more interested in output than making somebody sit behind a desk simply because the clock says 5pm.

That said, this isn’t a fully remote content job.

You’ll be working closely with the person you’re creating content around, so you’ll need to spend meaningful time together in

Double Bay

filming, planning and producing content.

All required filming equipment can be provided.

What you’ll get

$60,000–$70,000 package

for the part‑time role, depending on experience

Genuine flexibility around working hours

Direct access to an experienced finance professional with plenty to talk about

Significant creative input — you’re not just executing someone else’s calendar

The opportunity to take ownership of and materially grow a personal brand

An environment where good ideas can be tested quickly without six layers of approval

One important thing Please ensure you have examples of work you've completed

Instagram accounts you've managed.

Reels you've created.

Brands or personal profiles you've helped grow.

A polished CV is great.

For this role, your work will tell us far more.

Permanent Australian working rights are required.
