Social Media Roles

Social Media Content Creator & Designer
(Self-Employed, Part-Time / Ad-Hoc)

Brown’s Natural Pet Store is looking for a self-employed creative who cares about quality, storytelling and capturing real moments from everyday life in our stores.

This role is about showing what we do with honesty, warmth and attention to detail. You will spend time in our stores filming and photographing, then turn that content into thoughtful posts, videos and graphics that feel consistent with our brand.

We are not looking for someone to just post trends and produce generic social media. We are looking for someone who understands brand, cares about craft, and wants to help us tell meaningful stories about pets, people and wellbeing.

What you will be doing

• Visiting our stores to capture natural, real content
• Filming short form video for reels and TikTok
• Taking product, lifestyle and behind-the-scenes photos
• Editing video and photos to a high standard
• Designing graphics, simple infographics and campaign visuals
• Creating social posts that feel on-brand and considered
• Uploading content and writing captions
• Tracking basic performance and learning what works
• Working with us to plan content around key campaigns and seasons

This role is collaborative. We will share ideas, direction and priorities, but you will lead the creative execution.

This role is self-employed

• You will invoice for your work
• Work will vary month to month depending on campaigns
• Projects may include launches, events, seasonal themes, educational content and new product brand design & packaging

This is ideal for someone who already freelances and wants a consistent ongoing client.

Who this role would suit

• Someone with a natural creative eye
• Someone who enjoys calm, thoughtful content
• Someone who can work independently without needing constant direction
• Someone who likes pets and understands the care side of what we do
• Someone who is happy to be in-store regularly, not only working from home

You must be

• Local to Worthing
• Able to show proven experience
• Comfortable filming in our stores
• Friendly, approachable and respectful when capturing content
• Reliable, organised and able to manage deadlines

Skills we would love you to have

• Strong photo and video skills, including editing
• Good working knowledge of Adobe or similar tools
• Ability to design social graphics and infographics
• Experience with Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube
• Confidence writing captions and thinking about messaging
• Understanding of analytics and content performance
• Bonus: experience working with brands or retailers

If you do not have every single skill listed but feel this role genuinely fits you, we would still be happy to hear from you.

What we value

• Kindness
• Creative flair
• Honesty
• Thoughtful communication
• Pride in your work

We are a family owned & operated business and care deeply about how Brown’s is represented.
