Senior Social Media Manager — Ninja Mexico
ABOUT US
SharkNinja is a global product design and technology company, home to two of the world's most trusted consumer brands — Shark and Ninja. With a portfolio of 5-star lifestyle solutions sold across key retailers online and offline worldwide, we have a proven track record of disruptive innovation and aggressive market expansion. With 3,600+ associates globally, SharkNinja is scaling across Latin America with Mexico as our proof-of-concept market and strategic entry point for the region. How we win in Mexico sets the blueprint for how we win everywhere else.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Ninja is not just a kitchen brand in Mexico — it is a cultural participant. From the way Mexican families cook together to the food content that dominates TikTok México, from the street food obsession that shapes culinary identity to the aspirational home culture that drives purchase decisions, Ninja has a unique opportunity to earn a place not just on the counter but in the conversation. This role is about seizing that opportunity at full speed.
We are looking for a Senior Social Media Manager who will own Ninja's entire social presence across Mexico — across all Ninja verticals — with full strategic, creative, and commercial accountability. You will lead local strategy, manage budget, and drive end-to-end implementation while serving as the essential bridge between Mexico and the global Ninja team.
The ideal candidate is someone who lives and breathes Mexican digital culture — who understands why a food video lands differently on TikTok México than anywhere else, who knows which creators are shaping culinary conversation before the algorithm catches up, and who can translate Ninja's product innovation into content that feels like it was made by someone who actually cooks. You will operate with global connection and local conviction, turning Mexico into a market that feeds ideas upward into the LATAM and global strategy.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Strategic Leadership & Brand Building
Define and execute a forward-thinking, Mexico-specific social media strategy across all Ninja verticals — grounded in Mexican food culture, lifestyle aspiration, and platform behavior.
Own the Culture → Credibility → Conversion framework for Mexico: positioning social as the strategic and creative engine that drives awareness, consideration, and sellout — not just a channel for content distribution.
Serve as SharkNinja's internal authority on Mexican digital culture, platform trends, and the creator landscape — proactively surfacing opportunities before competitors identify them.
Develop long-term roadmaps for organic social and influencer partnerships across all Ninja verticals, anchored to product launch calendars, cultural moments, and commercial milestones.
Champion a data-informed culture across the local team, aligning stakeholders on KPIs, benchmarks, and the metrics that connect social activity to business outcomes.
Position Mexico as SharkNinja's LATAM proof-of-concept market — building social programs that are documented, repeatable, and exportable to other markets in the region.
Budget Ownership & Commercial Accountability
Own and manage the full Ninja Mexico social media budget — spanning influencer fees, content production, platform investment, agency partnerships, tools, and creator programs.
Develop quarterly budget plans with clear allocation rationale across verticals and activation types; present to senior leadership with ROI projections and post-campaign performance analysis.
Track spend in real time, flag risks early, and rebalance investment across priorities based on performance data and commercial windows.
Frame every budget decision commercially — connecting social investment directly to sellout, market share, share of voice, and brand equity outcomes.
Build a clear and defensible investment narrative for Mexico that earns increasing budget as the market matures.
Cultural Intelligence: Mexico-First Thinking
Develop a deep, nuanced understanding of Mexican food culture and how it shows up on social media — from home cooking rituals and street food obsession to the role of the kitchen in family identity and social gathering.
Map the cultural calendar for Mexico with social precision: Día de Muertos, Las Posadas, Día de las Madres, Independence Day, Hot Sale, El Buen Fin, and every moment where food, family, and aspiration converge.
Understand how class, region, and generational identity shape how different Mexican audiences relate to kitchen innovation — and brief content that speaks to those nuances rather than flattening them.
Track Mexican pop culture, music, humor, and social conversation across platforms — identifying the connective tissue between what's trending culturally and where Ninja can show up authentically.
Build a cultural intelligence practice for Mexico that informs not just local content but shapes how LATAM and global teams think about the market.
Identify the tension between aspirational and accessible in Mexican consumer culture — and position Ninja at that intersection: innovative enough to excite, grounded enough to trust.
Influencer Marketing & Creator Ecosystem
Build and own Ninja Mexico's creator ecosystem across all verticals — from macro culinary voices and lifestyle creators to micro communities, UGC advocates, and TikTok Shop-native sellers.
Identify and cultivate the specific creator cohorts that matter for Ninja: food creators who cook the way Mexican families actually cook, not just performative recipe content; lifestyle creators who connect kitchen culture to aspiration; and entertainment voices who can make a blender feel like must-have culture.
Oversee contract negotiations, campaign briefs, content approvals, and performance tracking for all influencer campaigns across Ninja verticals.
Use data-driven insights to continuously refine creator strategy — optimizing for audience alignment, content quality, engagement authenticity, and conversion.
Manage day-to-day relationships with influencer agencies (including SharkNinja's existing Mexico agency stack), individual creators, and talent partners.
Identify and activate UGC opportunities — flagging strong creator content for organic reshares, paid amplification, and retailer media placements.
Coordinate influencer seeding logistics end-to-end across all Ninja product lines: allocation, shipping, creator confirmation, and post-seeding follow-up.
TikTok Shop Mexico & Social Commerce
Own Ninja's TikTok Shop Mexico strategy — developing the creator and content programs that turn platform engagement into direct purchase behavior.
Identify and activate TikTok Shop affiliate creators who can authentically demonstrate Ninja products in the context of real Mexican cooking and lifestyle.
