Social Media Expert (m/f/d)
Who we are
Mawave – Europe’s leader in social media outcomes – translates consumer brands into social media. As the social-lead agency behind brands like E.ON, Jack Wolfskin, and ATU, Mawave manages nearly €200 million in ad spend, the largest social media budget of any independent agency in Europe.
The secret to the success of our 170+ social natives lies in their deep understanding of social media and their innovative use of it beyond traditional formulas: through the full re-integration of media, creative, and production craftsmanship. Through agile “always-on” approaches instead of classic campaign thinking. Through data-driven optimization instead of hoping for virality – consistently managed and measured against client-relevant business goals along the marketing funnel.
