Your New Role

If someone asks "What house are you?" Do you think, "Hogwarts, Westeros or Dune?" Do you have an FYP full of TV and movie memes? Are you bursting to talk to about the latest episode of the White Lotus or debate the merits of the Oscar winners at lunch? Are you guilty of - occasionally - starting another new show right before bed?

And are you a creative leader who asks themselves - will this idea drive a headline? Do you live to make breakthrough, fan-driven ideas that will resonate with Asia Pacific audiences? Do you have a track record of creating viral, high-impact campaigns that get fans talking? Are you happiest sitting at the intersection of entertainment, marketing, and social media culture? If so, this may be an opportunity for you to make a huge mark.

WBD is looking for a Senior Director of Social Media for Max and WBD Brands in Asia Pacific. In this role, you'll set the creative vision and lead the execution of innovative social media campaigns that build fandom, cultural relevance, and audience engagement across streaming and Pay TV brands in all of Asia. You'll push creative boundaries, shape bold, disruptive content, and transform must-watch entertainment moments into unmissable social phenomena.
