Social Marketing Strategist

As one of Figma’s first Social Marketing Strategists, you’ll collaborate with a growing team of social marketers to re-imagine and up-level our social presence on channels around the world. As a senior-level IC, your focus will be on combining a deep understanding of social data and insights with platform-level strategy + campaign-level ideation to enable best-in-class social marketing experiences + activations.

We are at a unique inflection point at Figma as we’ve expanded from a one-product, one-region presence to a multi-product, global company. How we show up on social is crucial for navigating this transition, and it’s a unique opportunity to lead, take thoughtful risks and build something special.

What you’ll do at Figma:

• Partner with a growing team of social marketers, with an emphasis on developing and implementing best-in-class strategies, creative activations and content.

• Develop a platform-level vision, strategy and roadmap for @Figma, inclusive of a clear framework that can inform prioritization, content, metrics and innovation.

• Define and evangelize an approach for social ideation, one that can be applied across multiple product lines, audience types and brand moments (evergreen and tentpole).

• Lead the end-to-end strategy (ideation to execution) for high-profile tentpole social activations, ones crafted to introduce Figma to new audiences.

• Model an insights-driven approach, proactively identifying and validating qualitative and quantitative observations from all platforms to fuel always-on tactics and tentpole activations.

• Embed deeply with cross-functional teams, proactively delivering subject matter expertise and social insights to elevate marketing execution and fuel new ideas and experiences.

• Present ideas and recommendations, inspiring confidence via compelling presentations that excite, influence and accelerate strategic growth.

• Collaborate to proactively develop, map and implement copy and content across all of Figma's social channels.

• Nurture and shape engagement across priority social channels, growing both the breadth and depth of Figma’s communities to enable durable growth.

• Establish new working relationships with platforms, vendors and brand partners to help develop an ecosystem of best-in-class strategies and capabilities.

Some projects you could work on:

• Developing and implementing the next generation of Figma's social strategies at a platform-level, accelerating our evolution from a one-product/one-region focus to a multi-product/global one

• Leading cross-functional teams to create a pipeline of custom social marketing activations
