Full Job Description

  • You'll define our global social strategy across organic, influencer and paid, creating the playbook, measurement framework and ways of working that regional teams localise and activate.
  • Setting strategic direction, standards and governance for social across all markets is yours to own, levelling up impact and unlocking efficiency while activation stays with the regions.
  • Transformation and change leadership are at the core of what you'll do - you'll reshape how we think about social across the business, positioning it as a prominent, strategic media channel that drives measurable commercial impact.
  • Building the business case for social investment sits with you, using data and insight to shift mindsets, secure budget and demonstrate the value of social as a key growth driver alongside traditional media.
  • You'll build our unified measurement and KPI framework, defining standardised cross-market metrics that link social engagement to commercial outcomes and ensure insights are shared, not siloed.
  • Working closely with TUI Studios, you'll own master concepts, templates and toolkits, championing a "concept once, adapt everywhere" approach while creative production stays with Studios.

    Proven experience setting strategy across organic, influencer and paid social - not just a single discipline - and translating business objectives into coherent, channel-agnostic approaches.
  • You've demonstrated success building strategies, playbooks and standards that are localised and activated across multiple markets and languages.
  • You're a transformation catalyst who thrives on driving change, with a track record of elevating social media from a tactical afterthought to a strategic business priority that commands investment and respect.
  • Your ability to navigate resistance, build coalitions and shift organisational culture around social is what sets you apart - you're comfortable challenging the status quo and bringing people along the journey.
  • You're highly skilled at influencing senior, executive and board-level stakeholders, securing buy-in for new operating models and building high-performing teams with a test-and-learn culture.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication in English, including executive-level presentations, comes naturally to you.

    From a workplace to a place to belong. At TUI we embrace diversity, equity, and inclusion, encouraging everyone to come as you are, because together, our potential is limitless.
