Avant Homes: Group Social Media and Marketing Executive

Lydia Slater

I’m Lydia, the Group Social Media and Marketing Executive at Avant. I joined the team in October 2023, bringing with me experience as a Social Media Manager in the retail and hospitality sectors. Working in those sectors allowed me to develop a versatile marketing skill set, with a focus on social media management, content creation and design.

After buying my first home and navigating the home-buying process, I found myself increasingly drawn to working in housebuilding/real estate industry.

In my current role, I manage multiple social media channels on a day-to-day basis, create new organic content, write customer-facing copy, organise photoshoots and of course write blogs!

Out of work I enjoy keeping fit by going to weekly fitness classes, making home improvements and a bit of home baking when I get a free weekend!

Expertise:

• First-time buyer knowledge

Education:
