About the Brand

2bTanned is a fast-growing UK beauty brand with a strong focus on tanning, suncare and social-first product launches.

We are a highly visual, trend-led brand with an engaged online community and a strong presence across TikTok, Instagram and e-commerce. Social media plays a huge role in how we launch products, build hype, grow our audience and drive sales, so content sits right at the heart of the business.

We’re ambitious, fast-moving and always looking for the next idea, trend or creative direction that can push the brand further.

About the Role

We’re looking for a creative, trend-obsessed Social Media Content Creator to join our team and take our short-form content across TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts to the next level.

This role goes far beyond simply filming aesthetically pleasing videos.

You’ll be working directly against a commercial social strategy, creating engaging, high-converting content designed to build our audience, strengthen our community and ultimately turn viewers into customers.

From developing strong viral hooks and jumping on fast-moving trends to filming polished product content, creating behind-the-scenes videos and appearing on camera when required, you should understand exactly what makes someone stop scrolling, keep watching and take action.

Key Responsibilities

Content Creation

Conceptualise, film, edit and produce high-performing short-form video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.

Execute Against Strategy

Create content in line with monthly social strategies, brand campaigns, product launches, promotions and wider marketing objectives.

Conversion-Driven Storytelling

Develop strong hooks, engaging concepts, clear product messaging and compelling calls-to-action that help turn views into website traffic and sales.

Trend & Platform Awareness

Stay ahead of TikTok and Instagram trends, viral sounds, new platform features, content formats and algorithm changes, and move quickly when opportunities arise.

Community & Brand Building

Help build an engaged and loyal community through relatable, authentic and interactive content, while supporting engagement across comments and social channels.

Performance & Optimisation

Review content performance alongside the wider team, understand what is working and use those insights to continuously improve future content.

On-Camera Content

Be confident appearing in content when required, including product demonstrations, talking-to-camera videos, behind-the-scenes content and other social-first formats.

What We’re Looking For

Proven Short-Form Experience

You should have experience creating, editing and producing TikTok, Reels or Shorts content for brands, businesses or high-growth creator accounts.

Strong Editing Skills

Confident using tools such as CapCut, Premiere Pro, InShot or similar, with a strong understanding of mobile filming, lighting, framing and social-first editing.

Naturally Creative

You’re constantly thinking of new concepts, hooks, trends and ways to make products and brands stand out online.

Commercially Minded

You understand that successful social content isn’t just about getting views. You think about retention, engagement, clicks, conversions and ultimately sales.

Comfortable On Camera

You’re happy working both behind the camera and in front of it when required.

Fast & Proactive

Social media moves quickly, and so do we. You should be comfortable testing ideas, reacting to trends and producing content consistently without needing constant direction.

Trend Obsessed

TikTok and Instagram should genuinely be platforms you understand and enjoy. We want someone who knows what is trending, understands why content performs and can turn trends into content that feels relevant to our brands.
