We’re on the lookout for a sports-loving social media whizz. If you know your Redknapp from your Retweet, then this is the one for you! Experience in social media management and the running of brand pages would be fantastic – especially if you know the ins and outs of Facebook Business Manager/ Creator Studio, Instagram Insights and Twitter Analytics. But as long as you’re organised, brilliant writing style, personal and chatty manner, and a stickler for detail… We want to hear from you! Fun bits aside, handling data and insights will be part of the job, as will being able to research content to populate our ambitious new social media schedule for the Sport Relief 2020 campaign.

Roles and responsibilities:
