An overview of this role
Social Media requires a balance of work behind each of the two words that make up the practice. Social, by building trust with our audiences and connecting as personally as appropriate, and Media, by scaling our storytelling efforts to brand-level corporate marketing initiatives.
The “Social” in Social Media
The world’s best brands feel more like a trusted source of information to their audience than a company. They could even develop friendly relationships with their followers. This is because the world’s best brands understand people and weave that understanding into everything they do.

Social Media at GitLab focuses on understanding people who make up the GitLab community, creating and sharing content over social channels that they’ll find valuable, and educating team members in marketing and beyond on social media best practices for brands, personalities, and how we measure success.
The “Media” in Social Media
The world’s most renowned brands are perceived to be larger than life. As GitLab scales to new heights, the Social Media team prioritizes opportunities for brand-level storytelling initiatives. By sharing our company values, perspectives on remote work, or leaning into our product’s features, we’ll help users understand how they feel about GitLab overall.
