You live in social conversation daily, helping us manage issues and opportunities as they arise, while driving marketing’s larger understanding of cultural shifts. As Brand Social’s in-house social anthropologist, you will investigate emerging online communities, subcultures, and platform behaviors to explain the "why" behind the data. You will also lead day-to-day operations of the global, 24/7 listening program, directing agency and vendor partners. You will oversee systems for monitoring, triage and real-time community engagement, for cultural moments, positive mentions, brand safety issues, and emerging risks. Working with internal and external partners, you will leverage AI and automation to scale our listening systems, using signals to inform long-term product roadmaps, brand marketing and daily channel automation briefs, improve listening systems and cross-functional processes through AI and automation. You will investigate what positive and negative signals reveal about recurring needs, friction, workarounds, and unexpected uses, working with product partners to assess implications and inform decisions. You will further be highly involved in Google’s brand channel programming priorities, including by inputting into the strategic direction of owned social media channels and informing content, campaign and channel briefs. You will combine analytical excellence with strong storytelling, cultural curiosity, and operational leadership. You are fascinated by people and communities, understand how platform mechanics shape participation and distribution, and can distinguish a supported finding from an interpretation that needs further investigation.

Our job is to demonstrate how Google's products solve the world's problems--from the everyday to the epic, from the mundane to the monumental. And we approach marketing in a way that only Google can--changing the game, redefining the medium, making the user the priority, and ultimately, letting the technology speak for itself.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
