Job Description

Location:

WIRED is seeking a creative, news-obsessed Associate Manager of Social Media to join our Audience Development team. This role will work closely with WIRED’s editorial staff to shape how our journalism shows up across social platforms—translating breaking news, enterprise reporting, and cultural coverage into engaging, platform-native storytelling.

The Associate Manager will help grow WIRED’s loyal audience by increasing engagement, social referrals, and overall reach across platforms. This is a highly collaborative role for someone who understands both journalism and the fast-moving dynamics of social media.

What You’ll Do

  • Write, schedule, and optimize daily posts across multiple platforms, including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, X, and Bluesky
  • Write social video scripts and work with journalists to shoot videos in-office and, occasionally, on location.
  • Craft clear, accurate, and compelling social copy that adapts WIRED articles into Threads, Instagram carousels, and other platform-specific formats
  • Partner closely with editors and reporters to roll out major packages, scoops, and breaking news across social platforms
  • Create and/or build creative assets tailored to each platform, including images, short-form video, and text-forward formats
  • Ensure posts are optimized for performance and consistently tracked, analyzed, and reported on
  • Brainstorm new content ideas and test rollout strategies in collaboration with the Audience Development team
  • Monitor social conversations and identify opportunities for timely, reactive content that drives engagement
  • Collaborate with the social team and editors to refine social headlines, framing, and descriptions

What We’re Looking For

  • At least 2 years of experience managing social media for a brand, newsroom, or publisher
  • Social video experience is a plus
  • A deep interest in politics, technology, science, and culture
  • Strong editorial judgment about where, when, and whether content should be shared across platforms, particularly in community-driven spaces like Reddit
  • Excellent writing and communication skills, with the ability to adapt voice and tone by platform
  • A strong understanding of social media trends and how to translate them into effective, on-brand content
  • Experience optimizing social content for engagement and/or traffic, informed by performance data
  • Comfort working with social analytics and using insights to guide strategy and experimentation
  • Experience using social publishing, scheduling, and analytics tools
  • Familiarity with WIRED’s journalism, audience, and voice
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • A sense of humor, curiosity, and flexibility in an ever-changing media landscape
  • An entrepreneurial mindset balanced with operational rigor and follow-through

The expected base salary range for this position is from $60,000 - $80,000.Salary offers are based on a wide range of factors including but not limited to relevant skills, training, experience, and education.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
