Do you fancy spending the summer working for one of the most exciting companies in social media strategy and production? At Telegraph Hill we’re looking for the smartest and most creative people to work for our company for the summer – and even stay on with us beyond that!

We’re taking people on for one month’s work experience with the best candidates staying with us for a paid internship. Some of last year’s interns are now full-time members of staff working on some of our biggest projects.

Since starting 2 years ago, Telegraph Hill has been leading the way in social TV production and campaigns for a range of partners including the BBC, Sky and others. We delivered all of the digital content for The Voice for BBC1; two major campaigns for the Radio 1 Breakfast Show and social media strategy for BBC Marketing and Shine Entertainment. We’ve created some massive videos and even delivered our own live show streamed on YouTube and featuring A list celebs. In the past year we’ve filmed with lots of exciting people including Harry Styles, Justin Beiber, the casts of Merlin and Hollyoaks; Nick Grimshaw; The Voice UK coaches and more.

We want people who ‘get it’, understanding how social media is changing the TV industry and want to be part of the revolution. You should have active social media profiles and be able to show your understanding of Telegraph Hill’s area of business and how to deliver the best for our clients.

We’re recruiting in the following areas:

Video Production – You should have experience with shooting and editing preferably using Digital SLR cameras and Premiere or Final Cut. Experience of After Effects and other tools a bonus. You’ll need to show examples of your work.

Design – Experience with Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator and the ability to make great social media images that people want to share. You’ll need to show examples of your work and what you think a great social media image looks like and why it works.

Social Media Creatives – to research, write and post content for social media campaigns using Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and other platforms. You’ll need to show examples of your work, knowledge of social platforms and examples of social marketing campaigns or TV shows you think are great.

Office and Project Coordination – To help us run the Telegraph Hill office and its projects, from setting up meetings and managing reception, to coordinating logistics around shoots and research around projects.

You’d be working out of our offices in Shoreditch East London which is a lively and exciting area and our offices are a great place to work. We expect people to be full of ideas and creativity but also able to follow a brief; work with our clients (Including some big celebrities) and work really hard. As we’re a small company, everyone is also expected to help around the office too from answering the phone to making tea and looking after the kit.

The month’s work experience would include travel expenses and the internships would be for up to three months and would be fully paid.

If you’re interested contact us at jobs@wearetelegraphhill.com by 5pm on Wednesday 29th May 2013 with a current CV and a covering note on why you like the sound of working at Telegraph Hill. We’d like to interview people in the coming weeks to potentially start in June 2013.

Tasked with promoting the show Pre TX, live tweeting during episodes and keeping the conversation going throughout the eight part series – we’ve enjoyed introducing the nation to the series’ amazing characters.  Long serving team members Claudette, John, Jamie, Nicola and Ian act as talking heads throughout the cheeky series.

Two Episodes down, and we’ve been having a great time Tweeting along with influential accounts like HeatWorld, Greggs & Periwinkle Jones…

Making food puns, celebrating all the weird and wonderful things that go on behind the scenes at this beloved British Bakers.

Greggs: More Than Meats The Pie on Mondays, 9pm, Sky 1 HD.  Join us during the show at @Sky1insider & @TelegraphHillHQ

BBC Brand Marketing tasked us with launching this brand new show on social media, positioning Nick Grimshaw as a BBC Three talent, and initiating the concept of ‘sweating it’.  We called on a few famous faces including Union J, Wretch 32 and Gok Wan to help…

Here’s pop finest Little Mix confessing their unique sweats ahead of the show launch…

A truly social launch, the public have adopted the hashtag as a way to talk about what they’re sweating about, and to tweet-along to the show during TX.

#sweatingit trended on Twitter during the first show and super-popular shows such as Celebrity Juice and Eastenders have been sharing the love too.

Oh, and for fans eager to get their hands on The Quiff of Grimmy (without risking a restraining order) we’ve handily made a cut-out-and-quiff too. Either find the link on Grimmy’s very own Twitter or head here for your own!

We’ve also got a new YouTube channel featuring some of our client channels and playlists of work we’ve done across a range of projects and clients – totalling over 78 million views!!

In the next few weeks we’ll have a brand spanking new website and in a few days an updated showreel too so check back soon.

In the mean time, follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook and subscribe to our new YouTube channel to see what we’re up to.

The first rule of Bump Club? Is to tell everyone. We’ve teamed up with BBC Radio 5 live and to show people that 5 live is not just about sport. It’s also about babies.

Since the beginning of March we’ve been working closely with them to generate discussion and debate about bumps, birth and beyond. Rather than set up separate Bump Club accounts we’ve taken full advantage of the 235,000 people that follow them on Twitter and the 38,000 that like them on Facebook.

So what makes Bump Club social? Well, on Twitter we use the hashtag #BumpClub to reach out to new audiences such as pregnancy communities and we speak to them on Facebook by creating highly shareable content, as well as working closely with the BBC and the production team at Sparklab Productions to create a compelling feedback loop with on-air.

So what is Bump Club? It’s a new programme strand dedicated to that most intimate of personal experiences: pregnancy. And what a better time to launch it, the UK is currently experiencing its largest baby boom in 40 years, with the birth rate expected to peak at 845,000 births this year. That’s a lot of babies and almost a million women. We can only assume the figure for those involved is at least double that, and that’s not to mention all the grans, granddads and kids involved too.

It’s a long build-up – but by late May, when the show moves from its current Tuesday late-night slot to a Sunday morning show fronted by presenter powerhouse duo Colin & Edith, we’ll have a large dedicated community ready to go.

Watch the three foxes Gemma Cairney, Georgie Okell and Georgia LA laugh, banter and frolic through the latest episode alongside guest stars Kate Nash, Watsky, Nimmo Gauntletts and resident barman Ollie Locke.

If you don’t tune in then you can’t be part of The Problem.

As it grows closer and closer (and stress levels get higher and higher) we’re getting incredibly excited for the airing of our brand new TV show, The Fox Problem – which will air LIVE on The Fox Problem website at 7.30pm GMT on Tuesday 12th.

Press coverage to date has been incredible and we haven’t even got started yet! The Fox Problem is already hot property with Broadcast Magazine, Heat Magazine, Look Magazine, Company Magazine and more are in the pipeline.

If you’re wondering “WTF is The Fox Problem!?” then you’ve come to the right place. Watch the video, or follow The Fox Problem using the social links below.

Guest lists for show 1 and 2 are already well over-subscribed but if you’d like to be part of this exciting (celeb filled) party for shows 3, 4, 5 or 6 you can be – physically and virtually. Either drop Tom an e-mail or watch live online at 7.30pm every Tuesday.

This is set to be big, and a brand partnership/sponsorship position is currently open for discussion so if you have a brand or client query please e-mail Tom.

The “3G’s”: Gemma Cairney, Georgie Okell and Georgia L-A are about to give you a new place to Hangout on a Tuesday evening – for 6 weeks from 7.30pm on 12th March. Each Fox hails from a different part of broadcasting land, (think T4, SBTV and Radio 1), and brings unique ideas to a brand new concept.

Telegraph Hill have collaborated with the girls as co-Producers on this exciting new venture that aims to bring something new to broadcasting. We took away the traditional studio and set up our own version on the first floor of East London’s Birdcage pub. We also got rid of the TV, (sort of), in place of a live stream that can be viewed online via a Google+ Hangout.

The best part of this celeb-filled party is that you’re all invited. Each week the Foxes will be talking pop, politics, sex, and that’s just for starters. Each week the viewers can join in the conversation through G+, Facebook or Twitter, chatting and voting to save their favourite presenter from a weekly challenge known as The G Spot. More on that soon.

You can also expect some foxy clientele as the girls have enlisted Made in Chelsea’s Ollie Locke as the foxes’ resident barman serving everyone drinks and Stephen Ridley (AKA ‘The Ridler’) serenading the audience with his sweet tunes and singing out live tweets.

The fun doesn’t have to stop on a Tuesday though as you can keep up with the girls on various social platforms to see how they’re getting on with their weekly challenge.

Telegraph Hill HQ is buzzing with excitement about this new adventure, and look forward to Hanging out with you soon so get involved on your social network of choice, below.

We wanted to enhance Merlin’s reputation as a major fantasy player, using powerful content to increase conversation, increase reach and build the community.

We wanted to strengthen ties and increase fan loyalty to cement Merlin Official as the leader of the community and make our message more effective.

The Work: Working closely with Freemantle, Shine and Merlin the Game we created exclusive, shareable, viral content including video interviews, never-before seen behind the scenes pictures, shareable images, gifs and original memes.

We held tweet-alongs and used Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and Tumblr to fully engage the community. We ran a countdown to the launch of the show complete with epic Facebook banners which the fans could upload to their own pages. We connected the stars of the show to the fans by asking them to launch fan competitions and record messages for the fan community. Instead of counting down the days until the end of the series, each day we released a treat under the guise of a Merlin Advent Calender so that we could create a buzz and mark down the days to the show’s finale without dwelling on the fact it was going to end. This was crucial to redirect the fans from feeling angry with the show and tuning out.

We encouraged community growth and fan retention by posting user-generated content in galleries.

The Results:

Facebook: Our content resulted in 356,162 likes, 27,673 shares, 33,197 comments and 403,748 people talking about Merlin in just a four week period. In addition to this, the Facebook promoted posts reached 10,201,518 people and were talked about by an additional 403,748. This was a 55% greater reach than expected.

Youtube: Our content received over 400,000 views and 1,500 comments. Six of our videos were the most ever watched videos on the channel. Due to this the total views for the channel rose 153% from 378,199 to 960,000.

Twitter: Our campaign saw a 57% increase in Twitter followers and a reach of over 57m with over 564,000 contributors joining the conversation. All of @MerlinOfficial’s 10 most RT’d tweets came from the Telegraph Hill period of engagement.
