About the role

We're looking for a Social Media Lead to own Asana's voice across every channel our audience shows up in. We don't see social as a supporting channel; it's a direct lever for business impact.

What they're looking for

  • Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision-making
  • 8–10 years of experience in social media or digital marketing, ideally for a tech, AI-native, or B2B brand
  • A track record of building differentiated social strategy and content — not just executing against an existing calendar
  • Deep platform fluency across LinkedIn, X, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Reddit — you understand distribution mechanics, community dynamics, and how a moment moves across channels
  • Real hands-on production skill, video-first — you can shoot and edit a video yourself, not just direct someone else. Creation is part of the job
  • Strong strategic instincts paired with a proactive mindset — you naturally bring ideas to the table and know how to be a thoughtful, trusted partner without losing your own point of view

That takes judgment: balancing a lot of competing asks while staying anchored to what's actually driving impact. This role reports to the Head of Global Communications.

This role is based in our Chicago office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option...
