Social media roles often sit within wider marketing teams, especially across content, brand and performance. If you’re exploring your next move, it’s worth looking at related areas where your experience could transfer.

OVERVIEW

Understanding social media jobs and the market.

Social media roles can vary depending on the platforms, content and level of responsibility involved. Some positions focus on content creation and community management, while others cover social strategy, campaigns and channels like TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn or YouTube.

As a social media recruitment agency, we work with agency and in-house teams across roles from hands-on specialists through to senior leadership. That gives us a clear view of how responsibilities, expectations and progression differ across the social media job market.

We’ll help you understand where your experience fits, what employers are looking for and which social media jobs align with what you want next.

Our process

Our recruitment process.

  • STEP 1

    Explore relevant opportunities

    Start by browsing our latest roles to see what's available and how we work. If nothing fits straight away, you can still submit your CV and we'll keep you in mind for suitable opportunities.

  • STEP 2

    Apply for the right roles

    When you find something that aligns with your experience and goals, apply with your CV or portfolio. Focusing on the right roles, rather than everything, gives you a stronger chance of standing out.

  • STEP 3

    We review your application

    Every application is reviewed by a consultant. We assess your experience against the brief and whether there's a strong fit. Due to volume, we're not always able to provide individual feedback at this stage.

  • STEP 4

    We get to know you properly

    If shortlisted, we'll arrange a conversation to understand your experience, motivations and what you're looking for next. This helps us make sure we're only putting you forward for roles that genuinely fit.

  • STEP 5

    We'll support you throughout

    If you move forward, we'll help you prepare with clear insight into the role, company and interview process. We'll stay in touch throughout, so you're never left chasing updates.

  • STEP 6

    We manage the offer stage

    If you receive an offer, we'll talk you through salary, benefits and expectations. If anything needs to be discussed, we'll handle those conversations and help you make a confident decision.

Testimonials

What our candidates say about us.

  • Candidate placed, October 2026

    My experience with Digital Waffle has been excellent, and I’m really happy to have found my new position with their support throughout the recruitment process.

    I would especially like to thank Harry for his professionalism, excellent communication, and support throughout the entire process. Everything was explained clearly, and I was kept informed at every stage, which made the whole experience smooth, straightforward, and stress-free.

    I truly appreciate the great service and the positive experience from start to finish. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for a new opportunity. Thank you for making the whole process such a positive experience!

  • Candidate placed, August 2026

    I worked with Tommy Black at Digital Waffle when looking for a new developer role and would recommend him without hesitation. Tommy was consistently responsive and proactive throughout. He was always quick to follow up after interviews and offer useful advice on how to prepare. There was a period where things went quiet on the employer side for a few weeks, but Tommy kept chasing on my behalf and kept me in the loop throughout. He placed me in a role I'm really happy with at Knights, and the whole process felt like he genuinely had my interests in mind rather than just trying to close a placement. If you're a developer looking for your next role, reach out to Tommy.

  • Candidate placed, August 2026

    Went through the recruitment process with Tommy, and whilst I can only speak as an applicant, he was everything you would want to work with as a recruiter. Tommy kept me up to date with the process, checked in before and after interviews, and was really great to work with. It also helps that Tommy successfully helped place me in a fantastic role at a great company and I'm looking forward to starting.

  • Candidate placed, April 2026

    Conor helped me get a new role within cyber security to start within a month of being made redundant. He was a massive help and really approachable all the way through from initial contact to securing the role. Conor is a credit to digital waffle, and the 5 stars is for him, even if he is a Birmingham fan!

  • Candidate placed, April 2026

    From the very beginning, Conor was responsive, transparent, and genuinely invested in finding the right fit. He kept me well informed throughout the process, provided useful insights ahead of interviews, and ensured everything moved quickly and smoothly. Thanks to his efforts, I was successfully offered a role which I’ve now accepted. The whole experience felt seamless and well-managed from start to finish.
