What's this role all about?
Wiser is looking for a strategically driven social media thinker with a strong background in corporate social, communications, PR, or editorial storytelling to join the team working with a Fortune 30 brand.
We’re looking for someone who understands how major brands participate in culture and conversation - someone who can shape narratives, spot opportunities, build compelling strategic stories, and translate complex business messaging into social content that feels timely, relevant, and platform-native.
The role sits across strategy, editorial, and communications. You’ll help lead the social media narrative for one of the world’s biggest brands across always-on content, reactive moments, executive storytelling, and broader cultural conversation.
You should be equally comfortable:
building a sharp strategy deck for senior stakeholders,
writing news-style social copy,
developing narrative territories,
and contributing to fast-moving creative and editorial conversations.
This is a role for someone who lives and breathes social, but also understands the nuance, scrutiny, and stakeholder management that comes with operating inside a major corporate ecosystem.
What will you spend your time doing?
Shaping Social Media Narrative & Strategy
Develop culturally informed social media strategies and editorial narratives
Translate business priorities and corporate messaging into social-first storytelling
Identify reactive, cultural, and conversation-led opportunities for the brand
Help define how the brand shows up across social media in a way that feels relevant, credible, and differentiated
Bring strong instincts around platform behaviour, audience dynamics, and emerging social trends
Building Strategic Stories
Create clear, compelling decks and narrative presentations for internal and client stakeholders
Structure strategic thinking into persuasive storytelling and actionable recommendations
Contribute to campaign narratives, content territories, messaging frameworks, and editorial direction
Present confidently and credibly in front of senior stakeholders
Lead Editorial Thinking
Write sharp, concise, news-style social copy across multiple platforms
Develop copy that balances cultural relevance with corporate sensitivity and brand standards
Bring a strong editorial lens to content ideation and execution
Support reactive and real-time content opportunities where needed
Collaborate Across Teams
Work closely with creatives, strategists, producers, account teams, and social media managers
Contribute to an integrated, fast-paced agency environment
Help drive creative and strategic excellence across always-on and campaign work
Navigate complex feedback loops and multiple stakeholder perspectives with confidence
What are we looking for?
6+ years of experience in social strategy, corporate communications, PR, editorial, or content strategy
Deep understanding of social media platforms, internet culture, and evolving audience behaviors
Someone able to take complex client briefs and turn them into actionable creative briefs for our team of designers, copywriters, and art directors
Exceptional storytelling and deck-building skills
Strong editorial copywriting ability
Experience working on large global brands or within complex stakeholder environments (a bonus if there are US brands within the mix)
Strategic mindset with hands-on executional capability
Calm under pressure and comfortable operating at pace
Naturally collaborative with strong communication and presentation skills
