Responsibilities

  • Lead REBEL's social strategy end-to-end across key platforms.
  • Develop and evolve REBEL's social voice, tone, and storytelling style.

  • Run a high-velocity test-and-learn content engine focused on virality, scaled awareness, and brand affinity.
  • Set and report on goals for organic reach, impressions, engagement, share of voice, and follower growth.
  • Drive earned media strategy and execution—story development, pitching, and relationship building.
  • Turn social momentum and cultural moments into PR wins, and vice versa.
  • Secure consistent, high-impact coverage that reinforces REBEL's brand story and fuels awareness.
  • Identify, recruit, and manage creator partnerships built for authentic storytelling and organic reach.
  • Ensure creator content feels native, on-brand, and capable of driving viral moments.

  • Build grassroots buzz through community engagement and reactive storytelling.
  • Partner with the CEO and leadership to evolve REBEL's positioning and personality.
  • Maintain and enforce the brand voice and style guidelines that scale across the organization.
  • Act as a day-to-day steward of the brand, helping teams move fast without diluting it.
  • Support co marketing partnerships and event opportunities that grow awareness and virality.
  • Work closely with growth, creative, and product to keep brand storytelling connected to business goals.
  • Lead through influence today; grow into managing a small social and brand team over time.
  • Manage contractors, freelancers, and creators as needed.
  • Build lightweight processes that enable speed, creativity, and consistency.

Requirements

  • 7–10 years in brand marketing, social, PR, or cultural marketing.
  • Proven track record of growing a brand through organic social and earned media.
  • Hands-on experience creating or contributing to viral, culturally resonant brand moments.
  • Experience setting and reporting on social and brand performance metrics, and connecting them to business outcomes.
  • Experience building or maintaining brand voice and social guidelines across teams.
  • Startup or challenger brand experience strongly preferred.
  • Exceptional storyteller with strong writing and creative instincts.
  • Deep understanding of how content spreads on social platforms.
  • Strong POV on what works—and what doesn't—on the internet today.
  • Data-informed but creatively led; knows how to balance metrics with intuition.
  • Comfortable operating without agencies, big teams, or safety nets.
  • Builder mentality with a bias toward action.
  • Willing to personally create, edit, post, and iterate.
  • Low ego, high standards, strong opinions, loosely held.
  • Energized by speed, experimentation, and ownership.
