Marcom is Apple's Global Marketing Communications group. We lead all of Apple's advertising and marketing efforts to ensure the considered development and execution of world-class communications.

The Social team is responsible for developing high-level strategy, planning, creative concepting and overall execution plan in collaboration with our Brand Teams. They partner with multiple functional disciplines on launch and campaign projects throughout the year, in addition to directly running and managing Apple's owned social channels. This requires close collaboration with groups internal and external to Marcom.

We are looking for a senior social strategist with strong social, brand and entertainment experience to lead show social campaigns and be a key member of a cross functional team working closely with integrated production, brand, creative (agencies and internal), brand strategy, PR, talent relations, and social team members.

• Great teammate, proactive, hard worker, organized
• Proven track record of leading work that is best in class social and made an impact in culture - not just ads, trailers, or tactical social

This candidate will be the social lead both internally to cross functional departments and externally to talent and partners. They need to have a strong eye for what pops in social and how to make an impact in culture.

This person should have the ability to pick things up easily (even without knowing all the information) and be able to jump right into and navigate tricky situations. Most importantly, they should be a good person to work with, believe in Apple's values, and a lover of entertainment and culture and be excited to work at Apple in a growing service that is still new.
