Who We Are
We are Satāya – a luxury talent partner to UHNW clients, premium brands, visionary leaders and some of the world's most respected hospitality groups. We operate globally, across 30+ countries.
Our social platforms are growing and we have big ambitions for both. We want them to be beautifully curated and a destination for luxury lifestyle content. Instagram 30k+ followers, and LinkedIn 60k+ followers – two audiences ready for someone exceptional to take the reins.
Scope Of The Role
You'll own both channels completely — creatively and commercially. Our Instagram and LinkedIn are established, trusted platforms with engaged audiences, and we're ready to push them further. We use the latest AI tools, we move quickly, and we back the people who deliver. This role has real earning potential from day one, and genuine scope to grow into something senior for the right person.
The Ideal Candidate
- You live and breathe luxury lifestyle — travel, food, design, culture, sport — and you have the visual eye, the writing ability and the commercial instinct to match.
- Creative, ambitious and brand-literate, you hold a voice instinctively and know what good looks like without being told.
- You're a self-starter who thinks on their feet, comfortable with AI tools and new platforms, and you don't need to be managed — but you will deliver.
- In practice, that means owning our social channels day to day across Instagram and LinkedIn — feed, stories, reels and highlights.
- You'll develop and drive the monthly content calendar, create, design and edit original content, write all copy in the Satāya voice, and pitch partnerships and trade collaborations.
- You'll also have a commercial eye on everything — spotting leads and opportunities through social, and reporting monthly on performance and pipeline.
The Package & Deliverables
- R10,000–R15,000 per month depending on experience, plus commission on leads and partnerships you generate.
- You'll have the freedom to own this role completely — but with that comes accountability.
- Deliver on your outputs, grow the channels, bring in opportunities, and you'll be rewarded generously for it.
- 8–10 reels per month – to be discussed
- 4–6 feed posts per month – to be discussed
- Consistent story presence across all highlight categories
- Full creative direction of the feed — visual consistency, highlight covers, profile aesthetics and overall look and feel
- Sourcing, editing and producing original content that fits the Satāya world
- Active daily engagement — commenting, responding and showing up in the right spaces
- Proactively reaching out to brands for content assets and collaborations and identifying and approaching potential partners and leads
- Building genuine relationships with the right accounts, brands and personalities in the luxury space
- Shooting your own original content is a significant advantage — we want someone who sees the world through a lens and captures it in a way that feels authentically Satāya
- Regular, considered content across our 60k+ professional audience
- Well-written, on-brand posts that reflect the Satāya positioning
- Daily active engagement — commenting, connecting in the right professional conversations
- Proactive outreach to potential partners, collaborators and leads across luxury / UHNW space
- Building relationships with relevant brands, thought leaders and industry figures
- Spotting and acting on commercial opportunities through engagement and outreach
Brand & Design
- Designing clean, visually consistent graphics and branded assets across both platforms — covers, templates, story frames, post graphics, etc
- Everything that goes out looks and feels unmistakably Satāya and working within the brand aesthetic and pushing it forward where there's room to
Reporting & Growth
- Monthly analytics report across both channels — what's working, what's not, and where we're headed
- At least one partnership or collaboration pitch per month — a trade stay, a brand partnership, etc
- Tracking and reporting on leads and commercial opportunities generated through social
- Keeping a close eye on trends, competitor accounts and the wider luxury landscape to make sure Satāya is always ahead of it
