About the role
- As our Social Community Manager, you'll help build and run Plaid's social communities, showing up where our audience already is, listening closely, and turning those conversations into trust.
- You'll also help bring customer and employee voices to the forefront, so the people who know Plaid best are the ones telling its story.
Responsibilities
- Managing day-to-day engagement across LinkedIn, X, Instagram, YouTube, and Reddit, responding to comments, DMs, and mentions with a voice that's human first
- Proactively building community, customer love, and advocacy — identifying and nurturing fans, developers, and customers into repeat advocates for Plaid (superfans, referrals, UGC)
- Defining Plaid's voice on social media, in partnership with the Social Lead and larger Brand team
- Staying culturally tuned in, knowing what trend or moment is worth jumping on and what to skip
- Monitoring conversations and sentiment across channels, flagging trends, questions, or risks to the Social Lead and relevant teams
- Supporting execution of community-facing content and campaigns in partnership with content and design
- Adapting tone and approach for each platform's distinct culture and norms
- Tracking engagement metrics and contributing to regular reporting
- Escalating sensitive situations, including PR risk or customer issues, quickly and calmly
Requirements
- 3-5 years of experience managing B2B social channels, in-house, including building community and customer advocacy
- Working knowledge of LinkedIn, X, Instagram, YouTube, and Reddit, including the distinct culture and etiquette of each platform
- A sharp, current feel for internet/meme culture and what's culturally relevant right now
- Strong, adaptable writing skills, with the ability to shift tone across channels while staying on-brand
- A level head under pressure, with good judgment on when to respond directly versus escalate
- Interest in fintech or technology, with a genuine curiosity to learn the space
- Strong organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple platforms and stakeholders at once
