The PITCH
Well, now we're looking for someone who lives and breathes social media even more than us [if that's possible]. Do you know all of the latest trends? Memes? And TikToks? Maybe you've dabbled in the world of influencers? Believe in the power of social media and community management to change hearts, minds, and drive sales? Love the hustle of a fast-paced agency that is working across Food & Bev, Fashion & Retail, Banking & Telco? Thrive in a role where you can bring ideas to life on billions of screens? Cool. Then let's talk.
This exciting opportunity of a full-time role based in Sydney will allow you to collaborate with the local team as well as learn from our incredible global network. You will manage and drive our strategy expertise and be someone who is familiar with the Australian landscape.
If you have been living in the depths of social trends and across the digital space for five plus years we could be a great fit.
Here's where you come in.
Build the bridge between brands and consumers

What You Should Know About VaynerMedia
Think "lab" and not "agency". We get excited about solving business problems, not creating advertising for the sake of making advertising. Our entrepreneurship DNA runs deep. We're willing to break rules, try new things, and test hypotheses if it means better understanding our craft. It's fun
Our environment (and pace) feels much more like a start-up than most agencies you might be used to. Hopefully that, and the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and enthusiastic crew, work with big brands excites you, as it does us.
We can't wait to meet you.
P.S. Portfolio would be nice :)
