We’re passionate about empowering people to create visually powerful content and helping brands connect authentically across every screen. The Opportunity We’re looking for a Creative Director for Social who is equal parts writer, satirist, cultural observer, and comedic architect. This isn’t a “social copywriter” job. This is for someone who understands the craft of writing for the internet at a professional level: short-form scripts, comedic beats, fast-pivot ideation, that can translate across TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, and emerging formats. If you’ve written for broadcast comedy institutions or satire-heavy social platforms—or a portfolio that demonstrates similar rigor, timing, and imagination—you’ll feel at home here. This role will shape the voice of Adobe’s social ecosystem through original ideas and comedic story instincts, while collaborating with creators, editors, strategists, and production partners to bring the work to life.

Requirements

• A proven portfolio of comedic writing across short-form video, sketch, and satire
• Professional experience writing for platforms like The Onion, SNL, late-night shows, digital satire studios, or equivalent environments.
• Strong understanding of social platforms, social pacing, and writing for visual comedic timing.
• Ability to write scripts that are concise, funny, unexpected, and deeply internet-native.
• Experience developing franchises, pilots, and characters.
• Ability to collaborate with creators and performers, guide tone, and iterate quickly.
• Comfort working in a fast environment with changing inputs and high creative expectations.
• A passion for culture, comedy, and storytelling with a sharp editorial point of view.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in both writer’s-room and social-native environments.
• Strong grasp of Adobe tools and generative workflows is a plus.
• A point of view on where internet humor is going and how brands should adapt.

Responsibilities

• Develop scripts, sketches, formats, and recurring characters that can anchor new social programming.
• Elevate Adobe’s brand presence by applying comedic timing, social literacy, and cultural fluency to campaign moments and always-on content.
• Translate insights and trends into ideas that feel original, sharp, and shareable.
• Partner with Creative, Influencer, and Production teams to shape ideas that resonate with key Adobe social audiences.
• Maintain a strong bar for creative excellence and writing quality across all social channels.
