Social Media & Community

- Draft and send timely responses to DMs and comments using agreed “voice & tone” guidelines.
- Maintain a light content calendar so posts and clips are planned and consistent.

Brand, Collabs & Monetisation

Community Platforms (Discord / Patreon)
- Set up and structure a Discord server and/or Patreon page.
- Suggest channel structure, roles, and basic community guidelines.
- Upload bonus content / early access episodes as directed.

Analytics & Reporting (Light-Touch)

- Provide a short monthly summary of what content is performing best and simple suggestions.


Requirements
- Experience using basic graphic and video tools (e.g. Canva, CapCut, VN, Descript, or similar).
- Comfortable editing vertical video clips for TikTok/Reels/Shorts.
- Strong written English and a good feel for social media trends.
- Organised, responsive and able to work independently to deadlines.
