Strategy is easy. Execution is everything. We’re hiring someone who can do both.
Mimik started as a small, hands-on social media agency built on the idea that brands need more than just posting, they need people who understand their business and actually care about the outcome.
What began as a one-woman show has grown into a tight team working across hospitality, lifestyle, and premium brands, creating content that’s thoughtful, relevant, and actually performs.
What you’ll actually be doing
You’ll be managing multiple client accounts from start to finish. That means:
- Planning content
- Creating content
- Posting content
- Engaging with the audience
- Reporting on what worked (and what didn’t)
Day-to-day looks like
Planning & strategy (the practical kind)
- Building monthly content plans that make sense for the client
- Coming up with ideas that are relevant, not just trendy
- Adjusting things based on performance
Content creation
- Writing captions that sound like a human (and the brand)
- Designing clean, good-looking posts (Canva is fine, taste is key)
- Assisting with video content (briefing, basic edits if needed)
- Scheduling and making sure everything goes out properly
Account management
- Keeping clients on track and informed
- Managing timelines and deadlines
- Making sure nothing slips
Community management
- Replying to comments and DMs
- Keeping the tone consistent
- Actually engaging, not just ticking a box
Reporting
- Looking at performance properly
- Pulling insights that are useful
- Knowing what to do next based on that
What we’re looking for
- 3–5+ years in social media
- You can write. Like, properly write.
- You’ve got a good eye for design (you don’t need to be a designer, but you know what looks good)
- You understand how content works across platforms
- You can manage multiple things without dropping the ball
- You’re organised, detail-focused, and reliable
You’ll do well here if you
- Take ownership
- Care about the quality of your work
- Can switch between thinking and doing
- Like working with people and being part of a team
Bonus if you
- Can shoot content (photo or video)
- Have worked with hospitality / lifestyle brands
- Understand how paid media fits into the bigger picture
- Have hands-on experience with Google Ads and/or Meta Ads
How we work

2 days in-office (Somerset West)

2 days from home
- First month: Full-time in-office, just to get you properly into the flow
- Also part of the job:
You’ll need to attend 2–4 evening events per month in Cape Town (content doesn’t always happen 9–5)
The details
- Full-time
- R18,000 – R24,000 (depending on experience)
- You’ll get a company laptop
- Start: ASAP
