Who we are: We’re Amazon Prime Video’s in-house EU Social Media team. Content & Pop-Culture Junkies at heart, we passionately believe that the best stories empower people and drive meaningful change in the world, one episode at a time. Our ambition is to connect authentically with customers through topical & locally-nuanced stories that entertain, delight or inspire. This involves planning, creating, iterating and distributing bespoke Editorial Content in various formats through Social Media platforms. We strive to make our feeds as engaging as our customers’ favourite TV shows. To make everything happen, we work closely with many partners, including PR/Marketing Teams, Creative/Media Agencies, Production Companies, Amazon Original Talent, Brands, and Influencers.

Who we’re looking for: An established & senior Creative Lead with years of experience developing best-in-class Social Media content for major brands. You are genuinely passionate, knowledgeable and excited about the Entertainment industry (if you spend your weekends telling your friends what show to binge-watch next, that’s a plus). You have a deep understanding of what content resonates across the Social Media landscape (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter). You obsessively keep up with the latest content & industry trends. You stay curious, humble, and open-minded, and have experience collaborating with large global teams that span different cultures. You have an incredibly high bar for Creative & Editorial output.

  • Create, develop and test bespoke & original Social Media formats that can scale across EU with cultural nuances

  • Work with local EU teams to localise concepts accordingly
  • Build out a network of EU's best Creative minds
  • Serve as Creative expert & consultant for all major Social Media content
  • Elevate the quality of team's output across EU

Our culture: We’re peculiar, fast-paced, and highly entrepreneurial. Curiosity and innovation are encouraged and valued. We think big, and understand that means taking well-calculated risks and learning along the way. We’re all owners, and don’t hesitate to roll up our sleeves to get things done. We don’t believe in “That’s not my job”, and focus obsessively on doing what’s right for our customers.

About us: Included with Amazon Prime, Prime Video is a premium on-demand video entertainment service that offers customers an incredible and diverse slate of content, including popular Amazon Original TV shows such as The Grand Tour, Modern Love, Carnival Row, The Boys, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
