We’re hiring a Social Media & PR Manager to lead how we show up in the world—across platforms and through the voices of our leaders and team members. This role will be responsible for shaping and executing our social and communications strategy with a focus on increasing awareness, deepening brand trust, and amplifying the stories that matter most.
You’ll manage our brand’s organic social presence and play a key role in guiding executive visibility and employee advocacy programs. You know how to craft a timely tweet, pitch a meaningful story, and advise a C-level leader on how to show up online in a way that’s both authentic and strategic. You’re as comfortable behind a content calendar as you are behind a comms strategy.
What You’ll Do
-
Lead our social media strategy — planning and executing across key platforms (LinkedIn, Instagram, X/Twitter, etc.) to drive engagement and brand visibility.
-
Build executive social presence — partner closely with internal stakeholders to develop authentic, high-impact social content for leaders, especially on LinkedIn.
-
Grow our employee advocacy efforts — help our team members share the brand in their own voices by creating scalable toolkits, templates, and content prompts.
-
Support brand and product launches — ensuring cohesive a social strategy is in place for key campaigns, announcements, and milestones.
-
Monitor culture and conversation — identify relevant opportunities and moments where our brand and leadership can meaningfully contribute.
-
Track and report performance — analyze reach, engagement, sentiment; use insights to inform and evolve strategy.
What We’re Looking For
-
5–7 years of experience in social media, PR, or communications — ideally with experience supporting executive or brand leadership visibility.
-
Excellent writing and editorial skills — you can switch between brand voice, thought leadership, and press-ready polish with ease.
-
Deep understanding of platform best practices, especially LinkedIn and X/Twitter, and how to grow executive and brand presence organically.
-
Strategic mindset with strong organizational skills — able to manage content calendars, stakeholder approvals, and fast-moving priorities.
-
Bonus: experience with employee advocacy tools or programs, and knowledge of social listening or reporting tools.
Why This Role Matters
In today’s landscape, how a brand shows up — through its people, its leadership, and its point of view — matters more than ever. As our Social Media Manager, you’ll help shape not just what we say, but who says it, how it's shared, and why it resonates. You’ll drive the conversations that define who we are — and who we’re becoming.
