Our partners do more than just save time — they provide exponential leverage. From talent recruitment to inbox management, building stronger relationships, and achieving personal and professional goals, Athena's XPs empower their clients to focus on what matters most.

Joining Athena means becoming part of a purpose-driven team, dedicated to empowering the fiercely ambitious to reach their most audacious goals. Here, you won't just support others — you'll help define the future of work and elevate leaders at every level.

The Role

Athena's social media presence is one of our most visible brand platforms—and we're ready to take it to the next level. We're looking for a Social Media Manager to own our brand channels, grow engagement, and turn strategic goals into thoughtful, high-performing content.

You'll manage our global social media profiles end-to-end, ensuring every post reflects our voice, adds value to our audience, and builds long-term equity for the Athena brand. From customer stories to culture highlights and product milestones, you'll create content that educates, inspires, and connects.

If you're a brand-first thinker with strong instincts for voice, storytelling, and execution—and you love creating systems that help creative work scale—you'll thrive in this role.
