The opportunity Politics is moving faster than most organisations can keep up with. We're looking for someone who lives and breathes digital, and specifically video, to help our clients cut through. Stonehaven is the campaigns and communications arm of the SHGH Group, working alongside public policy research consultancy Public First and sustainability consultancy Robertsbridge. Together we help some of the UK's most consequential organisations understand the political environment, shape opinion, and build campaigns that move people. This role sits at the centre of that. You'll run digital campaigns for a wide range of clients: campaign groups, major corporations, trade bodies, and political organisations, translating complex policy and reputational challenges into content that actually works on social. You'll do everything from paid social strategy to filming and editing your own short-form video. If you've ever watched a PoliticsJOE clip or a well-crafted campaign Reel and thought "I could do that better", this might be the job for you. What you'll do You'll have a lot of autonomy, and the work is genuinely varied. Some of what you'll be doing: Own digital strategy and delivery for client campaigns, from paid social and email to organic content and short-form video, often across multiple accounts simultaneously Film and edit your own social video content: Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, talking-head clips, explainers. This is the skill we're most excited about, and where you'll have real room to run Set up and manage paid campaigns across Meta, LinkedIn, Google Ads, and TikTok, including audience targeting, creative testing, and performance reporting Build and manage websites and landing pages (WordPress or equivalent), working with designers when needed Develop content strategies grounded in an understanding of how political and public affairs audiences actually behave online Act as the digital lead on client accounts, working closely with our policy, research, and corporate affairs teams, and building direct relationships with clients Contribute to Stonehaven's own marketing and thought leadership, amplifying the Group's work to wider audiences Keep the rest of the team ahead of the curve on platforms, formats, and what's working Who we're looking for We're deliberately open about where you might be coming from. You might be running digital campaigns at a political party, an advocacy group, or a public affairs agency. You might be producing video at a media outlet or broadcaster. You might be somewhere else entirely, but if you have the technical skills and a genuine interest in how political and public opinion works, we'd like to hear from you. The things that matter most: Video production and editing skills, specifically for social media. You should be comfortable picking up a camera (or your phone), filming usable content, and turning it around quickly. Experience with Premiere Rush, CapCut, or equivalent is what we're after; we're not looking for broadcast-level production values, we're looking for someone who knows what performs on Reels and TikTok 2–5 years of hands-on experience running digital or social media campaigns, in-house or agency-side Paid social experience across at least two major platforms. Meta and LinkedIn are most relevant to our work, but show us what you've run A track record of creating content that drives real engagement, not just impressions. You should be able to talk us through what worked and why Political and policy literacy. You don't need to be a policy expert, but you need to care about politics and be able to quickly understand the issues our clients are navigating Strong writing: clear, direct, and able to adapt tone across clients and channels Comfort working across multiple accounts and deadlines simultaneously. This is a consultancy; the pace is real Experience
