Global Social Media Strategist

As a Global Social Media Strategist on EPAM Systems' Global Marketing team, you will own the strategy and evolution of EPAM's worldwide organic social media presence. This is a highly strategic role focused on shaping how EPAM tells its story across platforms, regions, and audiences - using data, storytelling, and influence to drive meaningful engagement.

This role goes far beyond publishing content. You will act as a strategic architect and advisor, designing scalable frameworks that amplify executive thought leadership, empower employee advocates, strengthen B2B audience growth (especially in North America), and reduce internal friction around social media decision-making. You will work within EPAM's Center of Excellence (COE) model to guide global and regional teams while maintaining a strong, consistent brand presence.
