Your new Role...
Director, Social Media – HBO Max
When someone asks, “What house are you?” Do you instinctively think Hogwarts, Westeros, or Dune? Is your FYP filled with TV and movie memes? Do you live to discuss the latest episode of The White Lotus or debate Oscar wins like it’s a full-time job? Maybe you’ve been known to start a new series right before bed. If you live at the intersection of entertainment, marketing, and online culture—this could be your moment.

You’ll lead with the same confidence and cultural awareness that helped define our recent rebrand from Max back to HBO Max—an effort that earned meaningful attention. This position requires a deep understanding of both the prestige and legacy of HBO and the breadth of programming that Max offers.
