5 days per week with remote working (UK only). You will be required to be located in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire with the entire team and Senior Management 1 day per month.

Must have the Right to Work in the UK and have fluency in French and English, particularly reading & writing.

You will occasionally be required to attend evening meetings as some of our client stakeholders are based in the United States on both the East and West coast.

You will be required to visit client offices in both the UK and internationally. These trips can involve early morning starts, but as much notice as possible will always be given.

For this particular role, the core working hours are not flexible due to the nature of the publishing and client requirements.

Culture is paramount to our performance. Tiny Lagoon Studios’ founders advocate a people-first philosophy. If you look after your people, everything else awesome falls into place.

About the company

Tiny Lagoon Studios is a creative solutions agency specialising in Entertainment and Technology. We provide Content, Marketing, Design, Social Media, Tech, and Web expertise to large and small businesses alike. Our industry experience spans across broadcast, film, media, telco and gaming. From video production to compliance.

Founded by a brother and sister duo, Tiny Lagoon was born out of the desire to help businesses looking for a more humble approach to their outsourcing experience. At Tiny Lagoon we believe everyone deserves quality and care no matter what their budget.

About the role

You will be working on a global brand in the entertainment industry with the opportunity to work on some of the biggest entertainment projects in the world. 

With excellent client management skills, you’ll be overseeing the delivery and publishing of important social media and blog content from all parts of the world. Our client is a household name within the entertainment industry and we are looking for someone to manage the editorial processes for their blog and social media channels.

We are looking for someone with the right cultural fit as much as the attributes for the role. Whilst the core function of the role will require the individual to have top-notch translation skills, we are happy to consider up-skilling the right individual for any rusty digital skills. We are very much looking to hire for ‘will’ as much as ‘skill’ if the individual has the right attitude for joining our close-knit global team.

You will be responsible for editing, proof-reading, preparing and translating articles accepted for publication and proofreading social media content before publishing. You will also be required to support the administration processes for reporting purposes.

We are seeking candidates with an excellent command of written English as well as their native language. We are looking for someone with a keen eye for detail and interests in social media and publishing.

The role would require the individual to occasionally translate ‘hot’ blog and social media copy within a short turnaround time; as well as prepare the content for publishing using a CMS and social publishing platform. You will be able to use your creative flair to transform English copy into locally relevant and industry enticing content.

The role would suit someone who is happy to publish online and social media, as well as ensure the copy is accurate before posting. Most content is translated on a daily basis, however the occasional turnaround time due to embargoed content will require the candidate to translate themselves.

You will be working with client stakeholders at all levels, so we need someone who is well-versed in managing expectations and constructively pushing back or advising where needed.

You will be reporting directly into the Client Services Director and will work closely with the Managing Director as well as other in-house departments.
