AU Marketing / Social Media Manager (018-801)

​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Marketing / Social Media Manager

Compensation range: $1,500 AUD - $2,000 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: We are a skincare distribution company importing high-quality German and international professional skincare brands into Australia. We supply directly to skin clinics, beauty therapists, and aesthetic professionals.

Our focus is on education-led marketing, showcasing product effectiveness through real results, professional treatments, testimonials, and clinical-grade skincare knowledge.

Role Overview: This is a full-time, exclusive position. We are not looking for a content scheduler. We are looking for a capable, self-driven digital marketing professional who takes ownership of our online presence and brings genuine initiative to the role every day.

The right person will not wait to be told what to do. They will study the brand, understand our audience, monitor what works, and consistently bring forward new ideas, campaign concepts, and content proposals for review and approval by the management team. Implementation follows approval — but the thinking, planning, and initiative must come from you.

Key Responsibilities: 

• Manage and grow our presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok, with openness to additional platforms as the strategy evolves.
• Develop and maintain a content calendar aligned to brand campaigns, product launches, educational themes, and seasonal opportunities.
• Plan, draft, and present content concepts — copy, creative direction, and format — for approval before scheduling or publication.
• Schedule, publish, and monitor all approved content across platforms.
• Engage with followers, respond to comments and messages, and actively build community interaction in a way that reflects the brand’s professional tone.
• Monitor platform analytics weekly and produce a monthly performance report with clear observations and recommendations.
• Track algorithm changes, platform updates, and emerging best practices, and bring relevant recommendations to the team proactively.
• Coordinate with the Marketing Consultant on campaign briefs, content priorities, and brand direction.
• Support broader digital marketing activities as reasonably required, including email marketing, website content updates, and promotional campaigns.
• Identify and propose opportunities — collaborations, trends, content formats, platform features — before being asked.
• A great understanding of:
• luxury/premium brand positioning
• competitor and market research
• beauty/fashion/skincare branding experience
• commercial storytelling and aesthetic-led marketing
• Competitor and market research

Requirements

• Minimum 3–5 years of professional social media management experience in a dedicated (not supplementary) capacity.
• Demonstrated ability to manage and grow audiences across multiple platforms simultaneously — with examples.
• Strong analytical capability: you must be able to read platform data, interpret what it means, and translate it into clear recommendations.
• Proficiency with social media scheduling and management tools (Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, Meta Business Suite, or equivalent).
• Excellent written English — professional, natural, and grammatically sound. (All content will be reviewed and approved before publication, but the quality of your drafts matters.)
• Proactive by nature. This is not a role for someone who waits for instructions. You must be able to generate ideas, plan ahead, and take initiative within the boundaries set by management.
• Full professional availability — this is a full-time, exclusive role. Other paid engagements are not permitted.
• Reliable and self-directed: you will be working remotely and largely independently. We expect the same standard of work whether or not anyone is watching.

• Preferred (Bonus Skills)
• Graphic design capability — Canva at minimum; Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign) is a significant advantage.
• Video editing skills — ability to edit Reels, TikToks, and short-form educational video content.
• AI tool proficiency — working knowledge of AI tools for content generation, image creation, caption writing, or workflow efficiency (e.g. ChatGPT, Midjourney, Perplexity and more).
• SEO and/or Large Language Model Optimisation (LLMO) knowledge — understanding how content is indexed and surfaced by both search engines and AI tools.
•  Experience with CRM Systems – HubSpot or Gohighlevel.
•  Experience in the beauty, skincare, health, wellness, or medical aesthetics industry.
• Email marketing experience (Mailchimp, Klaviyo, or similar platforms).
• Basic website content management (WordPress, Shopify or similar CMS).
• Understanding of paid social advertising (Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads) — even at a foundational level.
• Photography or visual content production experience.

Work Arrangement & Expectations:

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement.

• To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:
• Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
• Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
