USN UK is a leading global sports nutrition brand, operating successfully in over 70 countries worldwide. With our record-breaking sales figures and mighty growth plans there has never been a better time to join USN!
We are looking for an Marketing Assistant – Events & Social Media to support our growing UK brand presence. The role combines on-the-ground support at sports and fitness events, with the creation and sharing of engaging social media content to showcase the events and brand online. This is a hands-on role, ideal for someone early in their marketing career who loves fitness, understands social media, and is excited by live brand experiences.
The successful candidate will:
Events & Brand Activation
- Support the planning and delivery of UK sports, fitness, and consumer events (e.g. expos, races, gym activations, sampling)
- Act as a USN brand representative at events, engaging with consumers, athletes, and partners
- Assist with event logistics including product setup, sampling, POS, and brand assets
- Work with athletes, ambassadors, and influencers on-site to ensure smooth activation
- Capture content at events (photos, videos, behind-the-scenes).
- Support post-event wrap-ups including feedback, learnings, and stock returns
Social Media & Content Posting
- Assisting with the coordination and set-up of content shoots, working closely with the UK Events Manager and partners
- Post real-time and scheduled content from events across USN social channels (e.g. Instagram, TikTok, Facebook & LinkedIn)
- Edit and format short-form content (Reels, TikTok, Stories)
- Assist with day-to-day social media management, including captions, hashtags, and tagging partners/athletes
- Ensure content is on-brand, accurate, and aligned with campaign messaging
- Monitor engagement and flag high-performing content or trends
Our ideal candidate will be a highly organised self starter, with good attention to detail, strong communication skills and have a proactive and positive attitude. A strong interest in fitness, sport and/or sports nutrition, and experience using social media platforms, particularly Instagram and TikTok is essential. You must also have a willingness to travel and work the occasional weekend for events. Due to the requirements of the role the successful candidate must have a full UK driving licence.
Whilst not essential, knowledge of the UK fitness/sports event landscape and basic editing skills (CapCut, Canva, Adobe) would be advantageous. You will be confident being on camera and interacting with consumers and a team player, who’s happy to get stuck in at events and represent the brand.
This is a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate to grow and develop in an incredible company where the focus is on challenging yourself and continually striving to improve and exceed your personal and our business goals.
