Summary

The Opportunity

Hyatt’s Luxury Global Brand Team is seeking a Social Media Manager, Global Luxury Brands who is genuinely energized by culture—people, place, design, fashion, music, food, art—and the kind of storytelling that moves brands forward.

You’ll join a high-performing, highly collaborative team that moves with pace and intention—curious by nature, sharp in execution, and committed to delivering standout creative that elevates our luxury brands worldwide.

  • 5+ years of experience in social media strategy and execution (brand or agency), ideally within luxury, lifestyle, travel, hospitality, fashion/beauty, or culturally-led brands
  • Demonstrated experience leading social strategy, content development, and campaign execution across multiple stakeholders and workstreams
  • Strong command of platform best practices and performance drivers (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest, etc.), including evolving formats and audience behaviors.

Experience Preferred:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Media, Business, or a related field
  • Experience with social publishing, listening, and analytics tools (e.g., Sprinklr, Sprout Social, Brandwatch, Later, CreatorIQ—or comparable platforms)
  • Experience partnering with Paid Media and CRM teams to align messaging and maximize impact across the funnel
  • Experience establishing social governance and enabling regional/property teams with toolkits and standards
  • Luxury/hospitality experience and/or global brand portfolio experience across multiple brand identities
