Cover live events and coordinate with restaurant teams, chefs, talent, partners, and the broader marketing team around shoot schedules and production needs. Create polished social graphics, event flyers, promotional banners, and other digital marketing assets for Flyfish Club and other VCR Group concepts. Develop creative concepts and visual directions for events, programming, partnerships, and special promotions, taking ideas from initial concept through final design. Adapt creative assets across multiple formats, including Instagram feed, Stories, email, web, in-app banners, and event marketing. Stay current on social trends, audio, editing styles, platform updates, and emerging formats, and identify ways to adapt them appropriately for VCR Group brands. Organize raw footage, photography, finished assets, and content libraries so materials can be easily repurposed across social, PR, email, web, and other marketing channels. Assist with posting, scheduling, and community content as needed. Review basic social performance insights and help identify content formats and creative approaches to repeat, test, or evolve. Manage multiple brands, shoots, deadlines, and last-minute hospitality needs simultaneously.
