About the Role

About The Role

Social media is one of the most visible expressions of who Descript is, and right now, we have an opportunity to do it much better. We're hiring a Social Media Manager who understands the new media landscape, knows how to build systems (not just post content), and is excited to make Descript's presence something people really want to follow.

This role goes beyond owned channels. You'll own Descript's employee advocacy program—surveying employees, building training, and enabling them to show up authentically online. You'll support executive thought leadership, working directly with our “first team” executives. And you'll work cross-functionally to make sure launches, campaigns, and content from across the company reach the right social audiences.

About Descript

Descript is building a simple, intuitive, fully-powered editing tool for video and audio — an editing tool built for the age of AI. We are a team of 150 and the backing of some of the world's greatest investors (OpenAI, Andreessen Horowitz, Redpoint Ventures, Spark Capital).

Descript is the special company that's in possession of both product market fit and the raw materials (passionate user community, great product, large market) for growth, but is still early enough that each new employee has a measurable influence on the direction of the company.

Benefits include a generous healthcare package, 401k matching program, catered lunches, and flexible vacation time. Our headquarters are located in the Mission District of San Francisco, CA. We're hiring for a mix of remote roles and hybrid roles. For those who are remote, we have a handful of opportunities throughout the year for in person collaboration. For our hybrid roles, we're flexible, and you're an adult—we don't expect or mandate that you're in the office every day. We do believe there are valuable and serendipitous moments of discovery and collaboration that come from working together in person.

Descript is an equal opportunity workplace—we are dedicated to equal employment opportunities regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status. We believe in actively building a team rich in diverse backgrounds, experiences, and opinions to better allow our employees, products, and community to thrive.
