Job Description & Summary

The Social Media Manager will lead and manage PwC Middle East’s presence across key platforms including LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube. The role requires strong ownership, hands-on execution, and the ability to balance day-to-day delivery with strategic thinking. This includes managing the content calendar, drafting posts, monitoring performance, preparing reports, and supporting internal campaigns.

The role involves working closely with internal teams and stakeholders across the region to ensure all content aligns with the firms brand, priorities, and tone. The Social Media Manager will also support internal enablement by running social media clinics, providing guidance to partners and senior staff, and managing employee advocacy tools such as Hailo.

As a marketing generalist at PwC, you will focus on a wide range of marketing activities aimed at promoting the Firms products or services. You will conduct market research, develop marketing strategies, create and execute marketing campaigns, and analyse campaign performance. You will leverage a versatile skill set and knowledge in various marketing channels, holding responsibility for validating brand consistency, reaching target audiences, and driving customer engagement and loyalty.

• Monitor conversations, trends, and issues in the social space that may impact brand perception or provide opportunities for engagement.
• Plan and deliver internal social media training sessions, senior stakeholders enablement sessions, and team workshops.
• Guide internal teams on social media tone, employee advocacy, and leadership visibility on social channels.
• Lead or support junior team members by assigning tasks, reviewing output, mentoring on brand tone, and helping manage deadlines under pressure
