Our Sydney Social & Content team is expanding, and we're hiring a Social Media Manager for ZURU Edge Beauty. Reporting to the Social & Content Director, you'll run day-to-day social for a portfolio of beauty brands, including MONDAY Haircare, DAISE Beauty and Being Haircare, across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and emerging platforms, and lead one direct report. You'll own social-first content from plan to post: calendars, creation, publishing, community and performance.
At ZURU Edge Beauty we don't make ads. We make culture, filling feeds with ideas that stop thumbs, start conversations and build brand worlds people want to be part of. This role decides how our beauty brands show up on social every day, working closely with the Social & Content, Brand, Creative and Digital teams so our brands feel relevant, distinctive and native to each platform. You'll have a dedicated TikTok partner and direct access to Meta, Snapchat and YouTube, and a flat structure close to the founders means good ideas go live fast. It's a growing team, with room to grow with it.
How You'll Help Us Grow
- Run day-to-day social across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and emerging platforms, keeping content consistent with each brand's voice, identity and objectives.
- Build and manage content calendars across multiple brands, bringing together campaigns, product launches, cultural moments, retail priorities and always-on content.
- Adapt every idea to the platform, because the same idea shouldn't look the same on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
- Bring ideas to life from concept to live post: write the brief, film, jump on camera, capture BTS, edit and publish.
- Spot emerging trends, formats, creators and moments, decide what's right for each brand, and know when to act.
- Build genuine community through comments, DMs and reactive content.
- Track performance, work out what's working and turn the learnings into better content, sharing what performs with our Paid Specialist.
- Partner with Brand, Creative and Digital teams to bring global campaigns, product launches and key moments to life on social.
- Lead and develop one direct report, setting priorities and raising the quality of everything your portfolio puts out.
What Helps You Win Here
- 5+ years in social media and content (e.g. Social Media Manager or Senior Social Executive), ideally across brands, agency or a fast-paced consumer environment. Beauty, haircare or fragrance experience is preferred.
- Hands-on experience running TikTok, Instagram and YouTube channels and managing content calendars across multiple brands or markets.
- A portfolio of short-form content you've shot, edited and written yourself, using mobile tools such as CapCut.
- Strong copywriting, plus experience using platform analytics (native insights, Sprout Social, Dash Hudson or similar) to report on performance and change direction.
- A storyteller and self-starter: adaptable, curious, collaborative and fun to be on set with.
This isn't a 9-to-5. We move fast, think big and set goals most companies would call impossible, then go after them. The people who thrive here are entrepreneurs at heart. They own their work, chase bold ideas and never stop raising the bar. At ZURU, you drive your career, and we give you the platform to take it as far as you can. There are opportunities here that you wonβt find anywhere else, and you'll be surrounded by talented people who make things happen. We're a true meritocracy: we reward impact, not tenure.
Big ideas happen when great people work side by side, so we're office-first by design. Being together means faster collaboration, sharper decisions and stronger teams, and it's where the real learning happens. Some flexibility may be available depending on the role, location and business needs, but most roles are office-based.
