Overview

We’re looking for an outstanding social media and content marketer to lead integrated brand programs and set the strategy for community engagement and growth. In this role you’ll define a vision for how Skillshare influences culture and conversation while elevating our content across owned channels. You’ll manage (and champion!) a small, mighty team responsible for world-class social, editorial and SEO campaigns, while infusing innovative, social-first thinking into our brand and business. You’ll identify key calendar moments and always-on opportunities to drive awareness, loyalty, and love.

What you’ll do:

  • Your responsibilities include: Leading topic selection, story planning, and keyword strategy for a comprehensive editorial and SEO content program, centering on Skillshare’s blog
  • Developing integrated social campaigns and activations in partnership with cross-functional teams, including class content, creative, communications, product, and external agencies
  • Implementing a robust measurement plan to ensure we are constantly iterating, improving and driving impact
  • Coaching and managing a talented team, inspiring them to think big, have fun and do their best work
  • Creating brand resonance within new and existing markets to leverage user retention and acquisition

Why we’re excited about you:

  • Our ideal teammate balances left-brain creativity and storytelling with right-brain analysis of audience, media, and market insights to inform strategy and achieve results.
  • You are first to identify content trends and social best practices and highly motivated to lead the category with best-in-class work.
  • You have managed and scaled content programs for a global brand, in partnership with regional leads (either in-house or at an agency).
  • You are equally comfortable as an individual contributor as you are managing a network of creators to produce break-through content that reflects the values of our audience.
  • You are an experienced collaborator and project leader, capable of aligning multiple teams and work streams around a common plan and goal.

Why you’re excited about us:

  • Impact: You’ll have a direct impact on growing our community, building our brand, and taking our business to a global audience.
  • Growth: You’ll have the opportunity to wear many hats while growing your leadership, influence and responsibility within the org.
  • Our team: We have a passionate, talented team that elevate each other and are truly the most fun to work with.
  • Our mission: We’re doing work that matters – inspiring people around the world and empowering them to pursue their creativity.
  • Flexibility: We believe that doing your best work means living a full life. That means different things for everyone, so we optimize for trust, invest to support remote teams, have an unlimited vacation policy (with a required minimum!), and encourage work-life balance.
