Global Social & Creator Lead

#
** About the team
** Social is not a channel. It’s culture in motion.

At Turo, our purpose is to reinvent rental and unlock independence for all. And social is one of the most powerful places where that promise becomes tangible. It’s where people discover new ways to move, explore, and travel on their own terms, through the voices of real people, not brand scripts and overproduced content.

We’re looking for a Global Social & Creator Lead--someone who leads with culture, listens deeply, and turns real-world behavior into social storytelling that feels human, timely, and globally relevant–never brand-down, overproduced, or bound to campaigns.

This role sits at the intersection of culture, creators, customers, and media. You’ll shape how Turo shows up by responding to what’s happening now, elevating the voices of guests and hosts, and transforming everyday moments of access and freedom into content that travels far beyond organic social.#

* Think like a creator and a strategist
* Solve problems with creativity
