Expected duration: 1 - 6 months We are looking for a high-quality social media content creator and manager to help launch Jersey Eats, a new food delivery startup based in Jersey, Channel Islands.
Jersey Eats is a local platform built to support local takeaways and restaurants while giving customers a more modern, premium ordering experience. We expect to onboard around 30–40 takeaways in the first phase and need someone who can help us build a strong, credible brand presence from the ground up across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
We are looking for someone who understands how to make a startup brand feel polished, local, commercially sharp, and relevant to the food and hospitality space.
The role includes content creation and day-to-day social media management: planning content, creating visuals/posts, writing captions, adapting content by platform, scheduling, and helping shape a clear pre-launch and launch content calendar.
We can provide some images and brand materials, but we want someone who can work proactively with what we give them and elevate it into strong social content. The content should include a mix of brand-building, community-focused, vendor/takeaway spotlight, launch messaging, and promotional content. We want content that feels modern, appetising, engaging, and genuinely local, not generic, flat, or overly corporate.
Experience with food, hospitality, restaurants, delivery, or consumer-facing local brands is strongly preferred.
We are looking for someone reliable, creative, commercially aware, and able to suggest ideas rather than just follow instructions. Please include in your proposal: - relevant examples of work - platforms managed - any food/hospitality experience - what your monthly scope would include, and; - your availability over the next 3 months.
This will begin as a 3-month trial engagement with monthly milestones, with scope for a longer-term role if it is a strong fit.
TikTok experience is a bonus, but the core platforms for this role are Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
Please include a portfolio with your application, especially examples of work in food, hospitality, restaurants, delivery, or other consumer-facing local brands. If you have worked on launch campaigns, local brand building, or visually led social content that drives engagement, we would particularly like to see that.
We would also like this person to be able to support an influencer campaign as part of the launch phase, including identifying suitable local influencers or creators, helping coordinate outreach, and advising on content collaborations that fit the Jersey Eats brand. Experience with influencer or creator-led campaigns is a plus.
