About the Role

The Blue Door Agency is a fast-growing social media and content agency based in Ireland.

We work with a wide variety of clients including restaurants, cafés, retail stores, jewellers, bars, motor dealerships, pharmacies and many other local businesses.

We don’t believe in generic social media.

Every client has their own personality, audience and tone of voice, and that’s something we’re passionate about protecting.

We’re now looking for someone to become a key part of the agency.

This isn’t a virtual assistant role.

This isn’t simply scheduling posts.

We’re looking for someone who wants to become another brain within the business.

?

The Role

Initially, you’ll take ownership of the day-to-day delivery of content across multiple client accounts.

You’ll receive completed photo and video content from our team and transform it into engaging social media content.

As you become familiar with each client, you’ll begin suggesting ideas, improving content plans and helping shape the strategy behind every account.

Over time, we want you to think like an Account Manager rather than someone waiting for instructions.

?

Your Responsibilities

Social Media

  • Write engaging captions in excellent English.
  • Adapt your writing style to suit different brands.
  • Schedule content across multiple platforms.
  • Create engaging daily Stories.
  • Recommend posting times.
  • Monitor engagement.
  • Reply to comments where appropriate.
  • Carry out daily engagement across client accounts.

?

Content Planning

  • Organise weekly content.
  • Build content calendars.
  • Decide the best order for posts.
  • Suggest stronger CTAs.
  • Recommend hashtags.
  • Suggest carousel order.
  • Select cover images.
  • Spot gaps in content.
  • Recommend additional content ideas.

?

Strategy

This is where we hope you’ll grow.

Over time we’d like you to:

  • Understand every client’s audience.
  • Suggest new content ideas.
  • Recommend trends worth using.
  • Improve engagement.
  • Spot seasonal opportunities.
  • Recommend improvements before we’re asked.

We’re looking for someone who naturally thinks:

“I think this would perform better if…”

rather than

“What would you like me to do next?”

?

Bonus Skills

These aren’t essential but would definitely be an advantage.

  • Canva
  • Basic video editing (CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve etc.)
  • Graphic design
  • Meta Business Suite
  • Metricool
  • AI tools
  • Basic photography knowledge

?

What We’re Looking For

We’re much more interested in attitude than years of experience.

The ideal person is:

? Exceptionally organised

? Excellent written English

? Creative

? Comfortable making decisions

? Proactive

? Reliable

? Curious

? Able to manage multiple brands

? Comfortable working independently

? Always looking for ways to improve

?

You Must

  • Write fluent, natural English.
  • Be comfortable writing in an Irish/UK style.
  • Understand different audiences.
  • Have a strong eye for detail.
  • Be able to manage deadlines.
  • Communicate clearly.
  • Be available for some overlap with Irish business hours.

?

What Success Looks Like

After six months we’d love to hear things like:

“I’ve moved that post to Thursday because I think it’ll perform better.”

“This client needs more behind-the-scenes content.”

“I noticed engagement is dropping. Here’s what I’d change.”

“I’ve created Stories for the week.”

That’s exactly the type of ownership we’re looking for.

?

This Role Is NOT

Someone posting content because they’re told to.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys improving things.

Someone who notices opportunities.

Someone who enjoys solving problems.

Someone who wants to become an important part of a growing agency.

?

Why Join Us?

You’ll have genuine input into the creative direction of multiple brands.

Your ideas will be listened to.

You’ll have freedom to experiment.

You’ll work closely with the agency owner and become a valued member of a small, ambitious team.

As the agency grows, so will your responsibilities and opportunities.
