About FitKit UK

Due to continued growth, FitKit UK Ltd is looking for a creative, driven and commercially minded Marketing & Content Creator to join our growing team.

FitKit UK is one of the UK's largest stockists of new and used commercial gym equipment, supplying equipment to commercial gyms, leisure facilities, hotels, private clients and home gyms across the UK.

We don't just sell gym equipment.

We buy it, sell it, deliver it, install it, relocate it and service it.

We work with some of the biggest names in the fitness industry and have a huge amount of interesting content happening around the business every single day.

We're now looking for someone who can turn that into great marketing content that gets noticed, builds our brand and ultimately generates sales.

The Role

This is a hands-on marketing and content role for someone who is creative, confident, proactive and genuinely enjoys creating content.

You will take responsibility for FitKit UK's day-to-day social media and content creation, working closely with our sales, warehouse and installation teams.

You'll be creating content around everything that happens within the business — from new equipment arriving at the warehouse and major stock purchases to commercial gym installations and complete gym transformations.

You won't be sitting behind a desk all day.

You'll be getting involved.

You'll be filming, taking photographs, creating Reels, editing videos, writing posts, managing social media and coming up with new ideas to grow the FitKit UK brand.

Occasional UK travel will be required to attend gym installations, customer projects and other opportunities where we can capture content.

• Help develop FitKit UK's visual identity and online presence

Social Media

• Work with external marketing agencies supporting PPC, SEO and other digital marketing activity
• Monitor agency performance and ensure campaigns are delivering value
• Use Google Analytics and social media insights to monitor performance
• Track results and identify opportunities for improvement
• Work closely with the sales team to ensure marketing activity supports commercial objectives.

The Person We're Looking For

You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of FitKit UK's content and social media presence and see your ideas actually go live.

We're looking for someone who will say:

If you are creative, commercially minded and constantly thinking about how something could be turned into good content, you'll fit in well here.
