About the Role:

This is a full-time, permanent and hands-on content creation role where you will be the creative force behind the "Life at NEXT" and "Early Careers at NEXT" channels.

Crucially, your creativity will be data-informed. You will use performance metrics and social listening insights to inspire your next wave of content, continuously refining your creative approach to drive engagement and awareness within our community. You'll use your keen eye for what's trending to craft narratives that resonate and build vibrant online communities, ultimately bringing our employer brand to life.
