About the Role

Let's be real, social is where culture lives.

At Contiki, we don't just follow trends, we set them. We're on the lookout for a Social Media Manager to take our channels to the next level.

Leading and Collaborating

  • Keep the vibe high-energy, creative, and collaborative
  • Make social the heartbeat of everything we do at Contiki

  • Know TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and LinkedIn inside-out and flex them all differently
  • Are equal parts strategist, content creator, and community builder
  • Can write killer copy, spot great visuals, and tell a story in 15 seconds or less
  • Have a proven track record of working with influencers and creators
  • Obsess over travel, culture, and the ever-evolving world of social

You're Our Kind of Person If…

  • You're bold. You take risks, pitch big, and move fast.
  • You're curious. Always watching, learning, and asking "what's next?"

What's In It for You

  • Career Growth: Opportunity to lead strategic, high-visibility projects and work closely with senior leaders across global functions.
