The Core Mission of the Social Media Manager

Hack The Box is looking for a Social Media Manager to lead and elevate our global organic social presence across brand, product, community, and campaign storytelling.

Reporting to the Sr Director of Growth Marketing, you’ll own these three core pillars:

Strategy: Define and evolve our social media strategy across channels, aligning with brand, product, community, and campaign goals.

Execution: Own and manage the social calendar, ensuring consistent, high-quality delivery and performance across all platforms.

Content creation: Take ownership of content end-to-end — from ideation to publishing. This includes recording yourself and/or collaborating with internal stakeholders to feature them in content. You should feel comfortable on camera and be able to guide others to do the same. Basic editing skills are important to produce fast, engaging content. We’re not aiming for polished production — social media is about authenticity, natural presence, and tapping into trends in a timely way.

You’ll play a key role in balancing thought leadership, product marketing, community engagement, employer branding, and campaign amplification—turning strategy into impactful, high-performing social presence.

If you’re equal parts creative, trend-aware, performance-driven, and you love building social for a fast-moving cybersecurity brand, we’d love to hear from you.

Hybrid (2+ days in office)
Full time
