BuzzFeed
BuzzFeed is the world's leading tech-powered, diversified media company that reaches hundreds of millions of people globally through its cross-platform news and entertainment network. The company produces articles, lists, quizzes, videos, and original series; lifestyle content through brands including Tasty, the world's largest social food network; original reporting and investigative journalism through BuzzFeed News and HuffPost; an industry-leading affiliate business, strategic partnerships, licensing and product development through BuzzFeed Commerce; and original productions across broadcast, cable, SVOD, film and digital platforms for BuzzFeed Studios.
The Role
Are you viral on Twitter? Running an instagram meme account? Maybe slightly internet culture obsessed? And does the prospect of working in a creative and fast-paced environment making content for social excite you?
BuzzFeed is looking for a skilled Social Media Editor to join our team in London.
As Social Media Editor, you will be responsible for writing posts on BuzzFeed's social channels - including BuzzFeed subbrands such as Proper Tasty, Bring Me, etc - across Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, Tik Tok and more.
We will provide you with access to fresh new content, our massive content library, and industry-leading data and analytics tools. It will be your responsibility to drive growth and engagement on our channels. In order to accomplish your mission, you will be encouraged to get creative - perhaps you will cutdown a celebrity interview into memes to turn one video into five. Or maybe a Tasty recipe video provides a perfect reaction GIF on a Sunday morning when roast is on everyone's brain.
This is a critical role with relationships across BuzzFeed UK, so it's essential you have strong written and verbal communication skills and enjoy collaborating with other editors and creators. You should be able to talk about audience data with confidence, and share actionable insights that inspire creators across BuzzFeed UK.
This role sits on the social team and splits social responsibilities with the team. The role reports into the Lead Social Publisher, BuzzFeed UK.

• Analyze reporting on social performance, trends, and new opportunities and deliver those insights across the team
• Oversee community moderations across social platforms
• Stay updated on social video as platforms change and evolve their offerings (playlists, stories, highlights, live video, etc)
• Leverage Facebook Analytics and third party tools for tracking and reporting on content performance.
• Help maintain the cheery and collaborative BuzzFeed culture with a positive attitude and obsession with the things people are sharing, liking, recommending, and talking about on the internet
You Have
• This job requires 1 years experience running social accounts for a major publisher or brand
• Proven social media experience and data analysis skills
