About Matēkö

Matēkö is an emerging luxury resortwear brand rooted in African culture, storytelling and contemporary design. Through distinctive prints, expressive silhouettes and considered craftsmanship, we create swimwear and resortwear that celebrate individuality, cultural identity and the art of travel.

Our ambition extends beyond clothing. We are building a distinctive luxury fashion universe where art, culture, design and travel intersect, creating meaningful connections with a global audience.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an ambitious, highly creative and dependable individual to join Matēkö as a Luxury Fashion Content & Brand Creative Assistant.

This is a hands-on, full-time opportunity for someone who is passionate about fashion, visual storytelling and building a brand from the ground up.

Working directly with the founder, you will help translate creative direction into compelling digital content, develop original ideas and contribute to Matēkö's brand identity, audience growth and creative campaigns.

We are looking for someone who takes initiative, thinks independently and takes pride in delivering exceptional work.

This is not a casual freelance opportunity or a position intended to be fitted around multiple competing commitments. We are seeking someone who can consistently dedicate their agreed working hours, take ownership of responsibilities and contribute meaningfully to the brand's development.

• Develop original creative concepts that communicate Matēkö's identity, cultural influences and design philosophy.
• Create moodboards, visual narratives and campaign concepts that strengthen the brand's luxury positioning.
• Translate African heritage, art, travel and contemporary culture into compelling visual storytelling.

• Produce reels, short-form videos, carousels, graphics and other digital assets.
• Develop engaging captions, scripts and creative copy aligned with Matēkö's tone of voice.
• Plan, organise and schedule content according to an agreed content calendar.
• Support collection launches, brand campaigns and creative projects.
• Maintain consistent quality, visual identity and storytelling across all content.

Community Engagement & Brand Growth

• Support organic audience development and meaningful community engagement.
• Identify creative opportunities to increase brand awareness and visibility.
• Research relevant audiences, emerging trends and cultural conversations.
• Monitor social media performance and recommend improvements.
• Contribute original ideas that support audience growth, brand desirability and customer interest.

We value creative ability, initiative and professionalism more than formal qualifications.

• A genuine passion for luxury fashion, design, art and creative storytelling.
• Strong visual judgement and an understanding of premium fashion aesthetics.
• Demonstrable experience creating digital content using Canva, CapCut, Adobe Creative Suite or similar platforms.

• A proactive, resourceful and solution-oriented approach.
• Reliability, accountability and the ability to consistently meet deadlines.

• Understanding of luxury brand positioning and visual storytelling.
• Experience developing campaign moodboards or creative concepts.
