Freelance Social Media Manager (Remote - Spain)

We are looking for a Freelance Community Manager, based in Spain, to join our Community team supporting one of our global technology clients.

This role is freelance, for a fixed-term scope running from 1st October 2026 to 30th September 2027, at approximately 50% capacity, Monday to Friday. Exact hours will be confirmed once the client scope is finalised, and there may be room for additional hours as the project develops.

The 1000heads Community team is a proud, powerful collective of Social Media obsessives, driven by the desire to deliver kick-ass editorial + social conversation to some of the world’s most impressive brands. You will work closely with a whole host of departmental specialists, from Insights, to Design, to Strategy, as well as our wider UK Community team, to deliver transformational social-first work for our clients. From cultivating online conversation through quality-led moderation to crafting and activating the editorial vision for our clients - everything we do is delivered with a belief that fans of a brand brought together, as a community, can become an unstoppable force.

To be part of the community team, you must be a social platform obsessive, a curious copywriter and a publishing platform junkie. If TikTok gives you thrills and carefully curated Instagram feeds leave you visibly electric, this is the team for you.
