About Flash Pack

When was the last time you made a new friend? The quality of your relationships is the single most important factor for your mental health. Travel has a unique ability to fast-forward the friendship-making process, which is why we’re on a mission to create one million meaningful friendships using the power of travel and technology as a platform for human connection.

We create curated social adventures for solo travellers in their 30s, 40s and 50s. Since launching in 2014, we’ve seen impressive year-on-year growth and become the category leader in a thriving, rapidly expanding market with the majority of our business now in the US.

We’re well-funded, we’ve shaken up an outdated industry, and we see ourselves as a friendship company far more than a travel company. Our culture is down-to-earth, hard-working and compassionate, built by exceptional people who care deeply about doing work we’re proud of.

The Role

We’re hiring a Marketing Executive who loves making content, trying new things and getting stuck into a bit of everything. This is a hybrid role: part content creator, part performance marketer, part storyteller — with opportunities to support PR and partnerships.

You’ll be filming, editing, designing, scheduling, testing, and producing content that meaningfully moves the needle. You’ll work closely with our Head of Content, our Creative Strategist and our Founder & CMO.

This role is perfect for someone early in their career who wants broad exposure across marketing before specialising. The scope will grow as you do.

In line with our salary framework, the salary for this role is £38,400 - £40,900, depending on experience. This is a full-time, permanent role; the working style is hybrid with at least 1-2 days a month from our London office near Farringdon.

Where you will spend your time

1. Create Content

• Film and edit short-form video using tools like Premiere Pro or CapCut.

• Produce eye-catching visuals and statics for social and paid.

• Capture UGC, interviews and customer stories.

• Stay on top of social trends and adapt our style accordingly.

• Produce content for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and more.

2. Support Performance Marketing

• Create assets for Meta and Google ads.

• Use AI tools to speed up production and generate ideas.

• Support A/B tests and creative optimisation.

• Review performance results to learn what works.

3. Help Run CRM & Email

• Assist with building and scheduling marketing emails.

• Report on email performance and help improve future sends.

• Support website updates and content changes (training provided).

4. Support PR & Partnerships

• Assist the Founder & CMO with PR outreach and partnership activity.

• Prepare assets, press materials and creative pitches.

• Help coordinate relationships with creators and talent.

5. Improve & Experiment

• Track performance of content and campaigns.

• Bring ideas, test quickly, iterate fast.

• Build your understanding of performance, funnels and consumer psychology.

What we’d love to see from you

You might call yourself a Content Creator, Creative Marketing Exec, Video Producer — or simply someone who loves making things and making them better each time. You’ll thrive here if…

• You can film, edit, produce and package content with speed and quality. You’re used to prioritising multiple projects and deadlines.

• You have a strong design eye and can create clean, compelling assets for scroll-stopping organic content — especially video (bonus if you have your own active channels!)

• You are confident speaking to customers and gathering UGC.

• You are someone who is multi-talented and can lend their hand to street interviews to trend-driven ideas to viral social experiments.

• You have a sharp pulse on current social trends and can adapt a company's tone of voice across various platforms.

• You are someone who enjoys tracking content and campaign performance and using feedback to shape future work.

• You are someone who is excited by AI tools and can use them to scale and refine your output.

• You are someone who is curious about performance marketing and eager to learn how creative impacts ROI.

• You have a growth mindset and a hunger to level up every month. You are hard-working, proactive and comfortable with autonomy.

We’re after the right person and if you don’t quite hit all the criteria, we’d still encourage you to apply.
