Full Fact is looking for a new Social Media Manager to help tackle the spread of misleading claims, hold those responsible to account, and engage and grow our audience of supporters. Every day our team of fact checkers and campaigners find, check and challenge false claims. Your job will be to make our voice heard online and in daily news debate, creating content to mobilise hundreds of thousands of Full Factsocial followers, and reach many millions more. Bad information ruins lives, whether it’s shared by politicians, journalists or influencers online. No one should settle for it.

You’ll win support and make change happen through creative, engaging content that brings our fact checks, policy and advocacy work to life, and asks people to take action with us. Since the 2019 election Full Fact has reached millions of people through videos, podcasts and other creative work. You’ll produce content and decide how best to use our channels to reach our target audience ahead of the next election, and help us make sure those who make false claims in public can’t get away with it. You’ll manage the organised, effective social media operation we need to set and react to the daily news agenda, working alongside colleagues in press, fact checking, and supporter campaigns to plan content ahead of time, and work reactively when needed. You might bring experience in designing social graphics or video production, but first and foremost you’ll be an excellent writer and storyteller. You’ll know how to adapt these skills based on target audiences and social media channels. Your approach to content will be driven by an in-depth understanding of social platforms, and you’ll know how to evaluate and communicate success to the wider team.

There will be opportunities to complement Full Fact’s organic reach with online advertising to help us target and grow our audience. You’ll thrive in a fast-paced environment. You’ll never compromise detail and accuracy, particularly when it comes to Full Fact’s reputation for impartiality, but know how to translate complex stories into engaging, accessible content.
