Creative Marketing & Content Coordinator

Matchbox is growing, and we’re looking for a multi-skilled creative individual to help manage and execute the day-to-day creative work behind the brand.

This role is for someone who can do more than just design. We need a hands-on creative all-rounder who can create content, run ads, manage social media, visit clients, capture activation content, and help bring the Matchbox brand to life across digital, retail, product, and community spaces.

Role Responsibilities:

• Create social media posts, stories, reels, and campaign content
• Design graphics for stickers, merchandise, posters, flyers, menus, product visuals, and brand assets
• Assist with photography and product content shoots
• Edit short-form videos for Instagram, TikTok, and other platforms
• Run and manage paid advertising campaigns where permitted
• Assist with ad strategy, targeting, basic reporting, and campaign performance tracking
• Manage community engagement across social platforms, including comments, DMs, and customer interaction
• Visit clients, stores, and partner locations to capture content
• Attend brand activations and create photo/video content on-site
• Capture behind-the-scenes content, customer interaction, product displays, and event moments
• Help plan and execute content calendars and campaign rollouts
• Keep Matchbox’s visual identity consistent across all platforms and materials
• Organise creative files, artwork, content, and campaign assets

Skills Required:

• Graphic design experience
• Photography skills
• Video editing skills
• Social media content creation experience
• Paid ads experience
• Basic copywriting or caption-writing ability
• Understanding of Instagram, digital marketing, and content trends
• Ability to design for merch, stickers, posters, flyers, and product campaigns
• Comfortable visiting clients and creating content on-site
• Confident working at activations, events, and retail locations
• Strong attention to detail
• Good communication skills
• Reliable, organised, and able to work independently
• Comfortable working with a cannabis lifestyle brand
• Must understand that cannabis marketing requires responsible and compliant communication

Software Experience:

Experience with some or all of the following would be a strong advantage:

• Adobe Illustrator
• Adobe Photoshop
• Adobe Premiere Pro
• Lightroom
• Canva
• CapCut
• Meta Ads Manager or other paid advertising platforms
• Instagram, TikTok, and social media management tools

What We’re Looking For:

We are looking for someone creative, practical, and reliable. Someone who can take an idea and turn it into finished content. This person must be able to move between design, photography, video, social media, advertising, and on-site content creation.

This is not a single-skill role. We need someone who can support the full creative and marketing side of the Matchbox brand as it grows.

The ideal person understands lifestyle branding, cannabis culture, content creation, paid media, community building, and the importance of consistent execution.
