Hi there!
Zapier is the hunt for a Social Media and Community Engagement Manager—an expert who understands the language of the internet and knows how to connect with audiences in a way that's relatable and customer-first.
This role will be responsible for three key areas:
Social video creation: We’re looking for someone passionate about starring in, creating, editing and producing social-first videos. You’ll take an editorial approach to finding repeatable content formats that highlight customers, partners, technology and trends.
Social media management: You’ll be the steward of our public channels and bring our brand to life on social media.
Employee advocacy program: Encourage Zapier employees to act as representatives of the brand, by sparking and participating in conversations on channels like Linkedin, Discord and Reddit.
Social and tech are two fast moving industries — we're looking for a visionary marketer ready to lean into risk, embrace experimentation, and make big bets on future trends.
If you are a creative storyteller that enjoys experimentation, and has an entrepreneurial mindset, then you may be the perfect fit to help us navigate the exciting challenges ahead.

🎥 Content creation is your playground. Whether in front of a camera or behind a keyboard, you create content that resonates and entertains, maintaining a strong brand voice and tone.
💡 You’re driven by what’s next. You're not afraid to experiment with content, take calculated risks, and push boundaries. We want to hear about how you’re using emerging technologies like AI.

📊 Analytical thinker with an operational edge. You're proficient in testing and iterating with a keen ability to link activities to business outcomes.
Things You’ll Do
Develop and lead a social media strategy across various platforms, aligned with company goals to ensure consistent messaging and brand positioning.
