Jobbeschreibung

The Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB) is seeking a dynamic, community-oriented Social Media Manager to join our Marketing team. In this role, you will champion the GSB's digital presence by managing operations for our flagship social media channels and launching new platforms as our digital footprint expands. This position blends social strategy with hands-on, agile execution; you will own the end-to-end editorial calendar, production pipeline, and implementation. You will write engaging, platform-native captions, as well as oversee and review copywriting produced by vendors. While you will leverage your basic photography and videography skills to take your own photos and independently capture "lo-fi" video, you will also partner closely with our Multimedia team on graphic design templates and high-production campaigns, the Digital Marketing Manager on channel strategy and campaign optimization, and the Web Content Strategist to ensure social efforts seamlessly drive SEO visibility and website engagement.

To truly succeed in this role, you must be an active, visible presence on our physical campus and within the broader Stanford social media ecosystem. This is not a desk job - we are looking for an outgoing, curious storyteller who regularly explores the GSB campus, attends events in person, reads the stories we publish, and introduces themselves to students and faculty to find the next great sharing opportunity. Beyond the physical campus, you will intentionally build partnerships with stakeholders and other social media managers across the school. You will collaborate with internal and external partners to develop innovative approaches, execute cross-channel campaigns, and administer GSB-affiliated accounts. By staying deeply connected to your peers, you will coordinate multi-group coverage for student and faculty events, navigate diverse stakeholder expectations with diplomacy, and ensure a cohesive narrative for the school.

The ideal candidate sits at the intersection of the GSB campus, our online community, and the broader internet culture. You should have a sharp pulse on digital trends, memes, and platform shifts, possessing the rare talent for identifying timely opportunities for a "trendy take" while balancing the professional, institutional voice of an elite business school. On the front lines of our digital community, you will develop and implement a consistent, engaging commenting voice - monitoring GSB-affiliated accounts, student, and alumni conversations to foster meaningful engagement. Finally, you will serve as a vital triage point, monitoring feedback to elevate recurring complaints or customer support questions to the appropriate internal teams.
