A Global Sportswear Brand does more than outfit the world's best athletes – it’s a place to explore potential and obliterate boundaries.  The company looks for people who can grow think, dream and create.    

Behind our marketing and communication is a force of creative experts, digital strategists and brand stewards telling stories of elite and everyday athletes, product innovation and sport moments across a range of channels from our retail stores to our service-based apps.  Social media is of particular importance to our marketing mix and often a primary lever to utilize when connecting with the hearts and minds of athletes* around the world.      

As the paradigm of brands on social media becomes increasingly complex, our Brand's Social Media is responsible for building and deepening the comprehension of the space for the entire organization.  This is done by partnering, sourcing and disseminating a variety of industry and platform-specific information to anyone participating or influencing the end-to-end spectrum of content creation and distribution.  Additionally, our department is responsible for the planning, programming and publishing of all global-level channels.  As such, marrying the above information with category objectives and audiences is integral to the development and output of efficient and effective briefs and brand behavior.

In this role, you will operate as a key player in the day-to-day management of your assigned category social channel(s), spanning the client’s seasonal, sport, athlete moments across Global, Geographies, and City inputs.
