Corporate - Social Media & PR Associate Manager

We are...Accenture’s social media team: One team of social media experts, with specialists located around the world rolling into part of our global brand team. We have a social-first mindset and bring best-in-class expertise to Accenture’s social media activity by leading with creativity, innovation and social-by-design experiences. We’re a fully integrated partner across all aspects of social media—whether strategizing, listening, engaging, creating, publishing, analyzing or activating our people. And we do all this while having fun—collaborating, connecting and pushing ourselves creatively across every area of the social space.

You are… a passionate social expert with experience across social media’s various components, from strategy to content to listening. You have a strong understanding of the Greater China social landscape—especially in the B2B space— and are someone who “walks the walk” when it comes to using social media for business, understanding the differences between WeChat vs Weibo for the Chinese mainland and LinkedIn vs Meta (Facebook & Instagram) for Hong Kong and how we can use each platform most effectively. You approach social with a strategic, not just tactical, mindset—but also know that a great strategy needs excellent execution to succeed. You have a knack for content, from crafting copy to recognizing good design, and understand that community management means listening, engaging, analyzing and optimizing—not just publishing. You’re creative, self-motivated and excited to help push our social efforts to the forefront of the industry.

The role… is focused on supporting a best-in-class social presence for Accenture in Greater China and developing content that can engage clients, recruits and employees. You’ll report into one global team of social experts representing different parts of the company—as well as teams such as Advertising & Social, Digital and Data & Analytics and Greater China’s M+C—to partner on initiatives, share content and learnings, and facilitate other collaborative efforts that drive us all forward. You will collaborate with local M+C teams and other peers in APAC and global while being the “expert in the room” on the most effective way to use social to support the company’s priority agenda and create synergy between Greater China, Growth Market and global Social team.
