Social Media Strategist

About the Team

Social Media is the team that shapes how millions of Filipinos discover, engage with, and talk about Salmon. We build content that educates, entertains, and creates meaningful connections between our brand and our customers.

As Salmon continues to grow, social media plays a critical role in building awareness, driving engagement, supporting product launches, and strengthening our brand presence across multiple channels. This team works closely with Marketing, PR, Growth, Media, HR, and external partners to turn business initiatives into content people actually want to watch, share, and engage with.

We're looking for creative strategists who understand how modern content ecosystems work and can help build a social media presence that stands out in a crowded market.


About the Role

As a Social Media Manager, you will own and drive Salmon's social media strategy across key platforms, helping transform our social presence from informative to impossible to ignore.

You'll be responsible for defining content direction, building content pillars, leading content creators, and partnering with internal teams and agencies to create engaging, high-performing content. From financial education and product storytelling to partnerships, campaigns, and cultural moments, you'll ensure Salmon remains relevant, engaging, and impactful across every channel.

This role combines strategic thinking, creative leadership, and hands-on execution. We're looking for someone who can build, experiment, optimize, and scale a social media function that drives both brand growth and business impact.
