Social Media Designer Internship
Job Description
About Us
Matter Of Form is an independent, award winning, brand & digital design agency. We work in close partnership with our sister agency, Diffusion Digital, a boutique consultancy founded to complement Matter Of Form by offering 360° digital marketing solutions. Diffusion Digital help ambitious brands thrive & grow online, offering a range of services from e-commerce optimization, SEO solutions & social media strategies and content.
About the role
The social media team at Diffusion Digital are united in their passion and commitment to designing strategically insightful, and beautifully crafted, social media solutions for our clients. They are looking for an equally enthusiastic and ambitious design intern to join them and create scroll-stopping content across a growing roster of clients. If you have an interest in using moving images, photography and graphics to drive customer engagement and improve a businesses performance, this is the opportunity for you.
No two days will be the same as you’ll have the opportunity to do whatever it takes to produce engaging content - source & edit imagery, design video assets, source music, assist & attend photo shoots. In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to work alongside a team of social media experts as they produce and update content calendars, identify content opportunities and conceptualise campaign ideas.
About you
This won’t just be a job to you. Creativity and social media are your passions.
You’ll have a solid understanding of the social media landscape, knowing how creativity and crafting engagement content can make a TikTok hit the #ForYou page, drive clicks and swipe ups. You’ll relish the chance to work in a busy, fast-paced environment and be up-to-speed with all the latest trends. We have a fabulous client base and partner with luxury brands especially within the hospitality, beauty, retail and travel sectors. As such, you will share our passion for the finer things in life too and have a love for fashion, travel and socialising.
Finally, you’ll be looking to become part of a team and relish the opportunity to work and learn from like-minded social media experts and our wider design team.
The requirements
- Ability to create & design engaging social content assets and motion graphics
- Thorough understanding of key social platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Tik Tok, Pinterest & LinkedIn
- Good working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator and Photoshop).
- An ability to shoot video would be a big advantage but a ‘nice to have’.
- Ability to conceptualise ideas for social campaigns
- A passionate enthusiasm to learn & try new things
- Ability to prioritise work and self organise
- A willingness to work in a fast paced environment
- Flexible attitude, happy to roll up your sleeves to help on any task
- A willingness to get stuck in & meet new people
About our offer to you
We are committed to nurturing amazing talent to join us in this exciting & transformative industry. We will offer you a genuine opportunity to grow, learn & develop by working on live client projects. We will endeavour to make the internship the most rewarding and informative experience for you. At times you & your skills will be pushed, maybe beyond your comfort zone, but you’ll be part of a supportive team, championing your progress.
We genuinely see the internship as a springboard opportunity to launch a successful career within the design industry. If at the end of the 3 month internship we are looking to expand the design team, we may offer you a permanent role (but sadly can’t commit to this obligation at the beginning of your time with us).
