This is a big and important role.

What You'll Do

  • Own the strategy. Develop and execute Affirm's social media strategy from audience insight to platform mix, content approach, and measurement ensuring every initiative drives cultural relevance and business impact.
  • Build the engine. Stand up a proactive content program that amplifies Affirm's narratives, spotlights earned media, and engages our community with humanity and creativity.
  • Make lasting connections. Foster dialogue, respond in real time, and ensure our voice stays timely, direct, and culturally relevant.
  • Push creative boundaries. Identify trends, test emerging formats, and champion new ways to show up across platforms.
  • Integrate across teams. Partner closely with Communications, Brand, and Partner Marketing to bring social-first thinking into every campaign and moment.
  • Continuously optimize. Use insights to refine content, grow reach and engagement, and deepen meaningful connections with our audience.

What We Look For

  • Deep expertise in platform best practices (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, etc.) and social listening / analytics tools.
  • A track record of creating culturally relevant content and campaigns that grow engaged, loyal communities.
  • An instinct for storytelling with a strong creative point of view that cuts through noise and sparks participation.
  • Ability to combine strategic vision with hands-on execution in fast-moving environments.
  • A collaborative, influential partner that people love working with.
  • A data-driven approach with a passion for testing, learning, and improving.
