The Job
We’re looking for a bold, strategic, and culturally fluent Head of Social, Creator & Community to define how WB Games shows up across digital platforms, in fan communities, and within the creator ecosystem. This leader will shape the voice and presence of our franchises—creating best-in-class programs that build cultural relevance, grow engaged fanbases, and turn players into lifelong advocates.

This role requires deep experience in gaming and fan engagement, along with a sharp understanding of how to scale social and creator ecosystems across console, PC, and mobile.

+ Launch and lead a global WB Games creator program that rewards fandom with early access, exclusive content, co-creation opportunities, and recognition.
+ Plan and execute influencer campaigns that balance paid partnerships, organic engagement, and surprise-and-delight tactics.
+ Collaborate with internal stakeholders and agencies to scale programs globally, while supporting locally relevant activations.
+ Negotiate talent deals and track performance across Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, and other key channels.
Community Engagement & Player Insights:
+ Cultivate authentic fan relationships by engaging directly with players across Discord, Reddit, X, YouTube, Steam forums, and beyond.

+ Build structured feedback loops to ensure community voice influences decision-making across marketing, studios, and franchise teams.
+ Establish moderation protocols to maintain a safe and inclusive community environment
Paid Amplification:
+ Partner with growth and performance marketing teams to scale high-performing organic content through paid media.
+ Leverage data and audience insights to test, optimize, and iterate on creative for maximum reach and ROI.
+ Bridge the gap between brand storytelling and performance objectives through strategic amplification.
Data-Driven Performance & Optimization:
+ Analyze engagement, reach, sentiment, and creator performance to inform content strategy and improve campaign impact.
+ Identify key spikes, drops, or shifts in community behavior — linking them back to content, creator activations, or in-game moments.
+ Regularly report on KPIs, fan growth, and cultural impact — turning community insight into strategic action.
Team Leadership & Collaboration:
+ Build, lead, and mentor a world-class global team across social, creator, and community disciplines.
+ Partner closely with Brand Marketing, Communications, Live Ops, Insights, Product, and Studio teams to ensure aligned strategy and flawless execution.
