About the role

Freedom of Movement is looking for a Marketing Operations Coordinator to become the operational spine of our Marketing, Content and Digital teams. This is a coordinator-level role, but it's load-bearing: you'll be the one central person who knows what needs to move, where it is, who needs it, and by when across campaigns, shoots, samples and assets in both South Africa and the UK. If you're early in your career, exceptionally organized and get genuine satisfaction from a well-run tracker and a perfectly named folder, this role was written for you.

What will you be responsible for?

• Keep marketing traffic moving. Maintain the central marketing critical path across campaigns, launches, e-commerce, content, PR, retail and VM. Capture action points in meetings, follow up with owners, and handle supplier admin like quotes, invoices and briefing documents.
• Own the asset library. Manage naming conventions, folder structures and version control for approved assets, and distribute final assets to the right teams: Digital, Content, VM, stores and our UK team, on time, every time.
• Coordinate e-commerce shoots. Manage product lists and shoot requirements: product codes, colourways, sizes and sample status. Track what's been shot, edited, approved and loaded, and flag product or asset gaps before they become launch blockers.
• Track garment and sample movement. Work closely with our Production team to run a clear sign-out/sign-back process for shoot products, marketing samples and pre-production samples so nothing goes missing and everyone works from one source of truth.
• Support campaign rollouts. Help with launch checklists, asset handovers for retail, VM, social, e-commerce and paid, and internal comms packs so rollouts feel coordinated and information doesn't live only in people's heads or WhatsApp threads.
• Report and follow up. Produce a simple weekly status update covering completed actions, blockers, outstanding assets and next priorities, and keep all trackers current.

What you bring

• 1–3 years' experience in marketing, retail, e-commerce or production coordination, content admin, or a similar fast-paced support role. Retail, fashion, product or lifestyle experience is strongly preferred.
• Exceptionally organised, with a natural love for trackers, lists and clear admin.
• Confident enough to follow up with senior stakeholders, suppliers and cross-functional teams in a way that's respectful but firm.
• Calm under pressure across multiple concurrent campaigns and shoots.
• Strong on the essentials: Excel/Google Sheets, Google Drive or similar file management, clear written communication, email follow-up, basic project tracking, attention to detail and deadline discipline.

What we offer

At Freedom of Movement, our mission is to be an inspirational and conscious South African brand that connects deeply with our customers by delivering authentic, high-quality lifestyle products.
