    SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTIVE – LONDON HQ The Social Media Executive supports the day-to-day delivery of Edyn’s social media across key channels, ensuring content is accurate, consistent, and on brand. Reporting to the Brand Marketing Manager, this role focuses on scheduling, community management, and execution rather than strategy. Ideal for someone with hospitality experience, strong attention to detail, and cultural awareness, the role helps bring the brand to life through engaging content and community interaction. Based at our London Bridge office, 5 days per week. THE STAGE IS SET The stage is set for something different. We don’t run conventional hotels; we build places with character and intent. What began as a small UK aparthotel portfolio has grown into a European collection recognised for design and atmosphere - and we’re now entering a new chapter. As we redefine the brand and evolve our identity, we’re focused on creating spaces that feel compelling, contemporary, and truly distinctive. Locke leads with bold expression; Cove by Locke refines that same spirit into a quieter, more streamlined approach. Guests come to rest, work, or escape. Comfort is a given - great beds, hot showers, genuine service. But we aim to create moments that feel memorable and a little unexpected, bringing back the sense of mood hospitality often lost. This is our backdrop. We’re on an exciting journey step on stage and play your part.

THE FIRE YOU CARRY • A natural curiosity and drive to turn ideas into impactful campaigns., • Pride in delivering work that is both creatively strong and commercially smart., • The confidence to build relationships and influence across diverse teams., • Energy, adaptability and a solutions-first mindset., • A genuine passion for hospitality, guest experience and brand storytelling. YOUR PROVEN TRACK • Minimum 1-year experience in social media, content, or digital marketing roles with direct posting and community engagement responsibility., • Hands-on experience publishing and managing content on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and TikTok., • A good sense of platform norms and what makes content feel native, relevant, and engaging - especially for hospitality and lifestyle audiences., • Excellent attention to detail with a clear sense of tone, brand voice, and storytelling., • Ability to monitor and engage community conversation in a way that reflects Locke’s repositioned personality., • Culturally fluent and plugged into the zeitgeist, with a genuine passion for lifestyle and creative culture, and a clear sense of what feels current versus forced on social media., • Mandatory hospitality experience, ideally within hotels or lifestyle accommodation., • Demonstrable understanding of social performance metrics and comfort using scheduling and analytics tools. WHAT WE LOOK FOR We’re here to rethink what a modern lifestyle hotel can be. That takes pace, creativity, and people who enjoy working with purpose. If you’re comfortable with change, motivated by ideas, and focused on crafting meaningful guest experiences, you’ll do well here. We value individuals who can hold a vision, appreciate atmosphere, and want their work to have impact. Skills can be taught. Mindset can’t. There’s no single template for success here - just the right approach and willingness to grow.
