As social media manager, you will be responsible for managing our social media channels, creating, curating and re-using content , driving engagement, monitoring performance, and helping to build and protect our reputation. Working as a key part of our external communication team, you will connect with colleagues across the business to unearth great stories, offer expert guidance and training, and ensure our social media activity supports our communications objectives and aligns with BAM’s values.You’ll be the voice of BAM on social, managing our schedule, shaping our content, and creating stories that spark conversations. From construction milestones to people-focussed campaigns, no two days will be the same. You’ll have the freedom to bring new ideas to the table, and the support to make them happen.
Here’s what you’ll be doing:• Plan and post: Own our content calendar and make sure we’re showing up consistently across LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube and beyond.
• Create and curate: Craft scroll-stopping content. From graphics to videos and everything in between. You will be curating our content archive - re-using and re-shaping to help BAM reach a wider audience.
• Analyse and improve: You will own our social media strategy. Dive into data and share insights on what’s working (and what’s not). You’ll help us evolve our content based on real results.

• Support and train: Help BAM colleagues become confident online ambassadors. Run training sessions and offer hands-on advice when they need it.
• Spot stories: Travel to BAM projects across the UK and Ireland, meet people on the ground, and uncover stories that deserve to be shared.
Who are we looking for?
We’re looking for someone who loves sharing stories on social media and understands the value of adapting messages to reach multiple audiences. You’ll be:• Experienced: You’ve managed professional social media accounts and can show us content you’ve created that’s delivered results.
• Creative and curious: You’ve got an eye for good content, a head full of ideas, and the drive to turn them into reality. You’ll also have the flair to re-skin old content and turn it into something new.
• Digitally adept: You know your way around analytics tools, scheduling platforms (Hootsuite etc), and creative software (like Canva, Adobe Suite).
• People-focused: You enjoy collaborating with different teams and can communicate clearly, whether online or in-person.
• Organised and flexible: You can juggle projects, meet deadlines, and improvise when plans change (because they always do).

We understand the need for flexibility, growth, and variety. Here’s what you’ll get:• Hybrid working: Work from home, your nearest BAM office, or on the go - we trust you to make it work.
• Travel opportunities: Visit our projects and teams across the UK and Ireland to get the real stories firsthand.
