Social Media Marketing Assistant

Career Changers Welcome!!

Looking to move into digital marketing?

We’re growing and looking for the next ‘digital mind’ to join our paid social team. This role is built for people ready to make a career switch, who bring maturity, a strong work ethic and transferable experience from another field. We’ll teach you the platforms. We’re looking for the mindset.

People who started in this role have progressed to managers and directors both within DMG and across the industry.

About Us

Digital Minds Group was established in 2011. Since then we’ve grown to be recognised as a top independent agency, with operations across Australia, the UK, the USA and APAC markets. Among a number of awards, we were recently named Marketing Agency of the Year at the 2026 Mumbrella Travel Marketing Awards. We run on a no-nonsense philosophy and true collaboration, and we take pride in consistently delivering outstanding results for our clients.

The Role

You’ll get hands-on training in paid social from day one. You’ll learn to ideate, brief in, build, launch and optimise campaigns across Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and TikTok, with the goal of becoming a certified paid social expert.

Because this is an account role, you’ll work directly with clients. You’ll join client calls, report on performance and, over time, manage day-to-day client communication. This is where your previous experience counts. Professionalism, sound judgement and confidence with stakeholders will set you apart.

As you progress, you’ll also get exposure to other media channels, including search, display, OOH and ATL.
