Are you a self-starter? Well, read on!

Play a valued and key role with a growing online e-commerce retailer. 

We’re currently a 5 person team with some team members based in Barcelona and others working remotely. The business mainly serves the health and wellness space. We manufacture and retail a large range of physical products. We have one of the best reputations in the industry for both quality and customer service alongside our excellent social media and community management. The business has been running for over 18 years, and it’s time for us to expand in our own market and into other markets - so we need extra hands, stat! 

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

E-commerce businesses require a huge mix of skills and activities. The business is looking for a social media and marketing person. The role is already established so with some existing experience you can jump right in. But if your experience doesn't quite match up, if you are the right person with the right attitude we can show you the ropes and develop your experience further on the job.

Here’s what your role would look like:

• Brainstorming, creating and sourcing content and social media posts for our audience
• Scheduling and posting across all social media so all our platforms have daily content
• Editing video content for publishing to youtube and social media
• Writing blogs our audience would enjoy reading
• Managing and moderating our private facebook community with over 2.5K members
• Preparing and compiling enjoyable content for our weekly community newsletter
• Becoming familiar with our industry, it's contacts, who's who and nurturing and developing the relationships we have with important industry figures

It's not required for you to have experience in all of these areas. If you do - that's great (especially if it's UK-based). But what we want most is someone who is switched on and ready to learn and apply. 

WHAT ARE THE DETAILS?

For the first few months, we'd prefer you to work one on one in a co-working space in Barcelona with some of our team. Doing some hands-on work together to begin with means you can transition to working at home or from a co-working space on your own at a later stage or stay put in our Barcelona office with us! Great for those wanting to work from home!

Our team works Barcelona hours 9.30am-6.30pm. The role requires 4 hours per day from you but depending on your other commitments you can choose what 4 hours of the day you can work.

Although the hours are part-time, this is a long term role. You’re not just looking for a job; you’re looking to build or expand your social media and marketing skillset and be a key member of a growing business. This is for someone who wants to learn all the gritty details of making an online business thrive from the marketing side. You’ll be an integral part of our growing company, so we’re looking for a minimum 12 months commitment. BUT, we want this relationship to be so successful you will be happy to stick around much longer than that.

Earnings will be above average.  Afternoon role is 4 hours. The shift time varies (depending on your availability). Earnings will be circa €1000 per month (depending on experience) and will be discussed with applicants upon a successful offer . After initial one to one training, this is a remote working contract for a company based outside Spain. Great for working from home or you're very welcome to continue working with us at our co-work space!

Start date is as soon as you are ready and is open to negotiation.
