Social Media Strategist

Can you tell from the first ten comments whether a post is going to work? Do you have opinions on which brands get social right, and which ones are trying too hard? Are you ready to turn that instinct into strategy? This might be your next role.

We’re continuing to grow our Stockholm team and are looking for a full-time Junior Social Media Strategist, ideally starting in January 2027.

You’ll help clients across entertainment, gaming, consumer, and corporate brands understand what their audiences are doing and saying on social, and turn that understanding into content and social strategy. You’ll work closely with our senior strategists and creatives, learning our strategic tools and methods along the way.

• Run parts of the daily content pipeline, from content calendars to scheduling and publishing
• Follow trends, formats, creators, and the conversations around our clients, and flag what matters
• Support community management and reactive comms: spot emerging conversations early, and help with responses
• Pull and report social analytics, and explain what moved the numbers
• Build research, ideas, and slides for client presentations

You have relevant school experience or prior internships in social or content at an agency, a media company, or in-house, or run channels for an organization or a project of your own. What matters most is that you live on social, have opinions on what works and what doesn’t, and are curious about audience behavior beyond your own feed.

• Relevant school experience or prior internships in social media, content, community management, or copywriting, at an agency, a media company, or in-house
• Examples of content, copy, or reporting you’ve worked on
• Native fluency in the major social platforms and their formats
• Strong short-form writing, plus basic social analytics
• Experience with publishing or listening tools is a plus, as is experience with gaming or entertainment brands
• Fluent in English; additional languages (including Swedish) are a plus
• Eligibility to work in Sweden

How to apply

Send us your resume and a short letter introducing your background. In it, cover two things:

• Pick a brand whose social content you think is particularly engaging and innovative. What makes it work, and what would you do next if you ran its channels?
• Something you’ve noticed recently that you haven’t been able to stop thinking about, whether it’s a brand on social, a cultural shift, or something you overheard. What caught your attention, and what do you think is really going on underneath it?

Keep the letter to one A4 page at most. We’re reading for how you think, not necessarily how you write, so give us your own thinking, in your own voice. We’d much rather read something genuinely yours than something perfectly polished by AI.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until November 6, 2026.
