About the role

Leadership role shaping Mercury’s social, community, creator/influencer, and merch strategy to build a cohesive ecosystem, deepen engagement, and grow brand affinity within a fintech context.

Responsibilities

  • Set the strategy for social and community at Mercury, connecting social, creators and influencers, and merch into a cohesive ecosystem that grows our audience, deepens engagement, and builds long-term brand affinity.
  • Shape and amplify Mercury’s voice across channels, setting a high bar for the ideas, writing, creative, and experiences we put into the world.
  • Develop breakthrough campaigns and programs that give people a reason to talk about, participate in, and advocate for Mercury - from an unexpected social idea to a creator partnership or piece of merch.
  • Connect our community work to the broader marketing organization, partnering closely with Brand, Creative, Growth, Product Marketing, Support, and others to turn company priorities into bigger ideas and bring insights from our community back into Mercury.
  • Own the goals, budgets, measurement, and operating rhythms for the function, balancing creative ambition with analytical rigor to understand what’s working and where to invest next.
  • Lead, coach, and develop a multidisciplinary team of three, creating clarity across distinct areas of work and growing the organization as our ambitions expand.

Qualifications

  • Experience leading a team and meaningful budget across social, merch, creator or influencer partnerships, or related brand and community disciplines.
  • Exceptional creative and editorial taste. You can write a great post, spot when a concept isn’t working, give incisive feedback on creative, and maintain a high bar without becoming a bottleneck.
  • A systems mindset. You know how to connect channels and individual moments to a larger story, building programs that compound into brand equity rather than a collection of one-offs.
  • Strong cross-functional instincts and the ability to be connective tissue across teams, bringing together different priorities while keeping the customer and community at the center.
  • A bias toward ideas that break through. You’re curious about culture and the internet, challenge the standard playbook, and look for unexpected concepts, formats, and partnerships that make Mercury feel unlike other financial brands.
  • Strong people leadership and the ability to hire, coach, and develop people across different disciplines while moving comfortably between strategic thinking and the details of the work.
