Responsibilities

  • Own xStocks' social presence across X and Linkedin as primary channels, building credibility and visibility with partners, exchanges, DeFi protocols, and institutional audiences
  • Drive proactive, end-to-end partnership content; from pre-launch planning through execution, building co-marketing programs that help partners succeed alongside xStocks and keep them invested in the RWA narrative
  • Develop sustainable, sequenced content strategies that extend campaign life and maximize impact across the full product roadmap
  • Build and manage a high-signal community through campaigns, participation loops, and conversations that drive real engagement and retention

  • 5+ years in social media and community management, with a strong background in finance, fintech, or crypto - B2B or institutional experience strongly preferred

  • Exceptional content creation skills end-to-end

Company info

  • xStocks is Payward's tokenized equities framework, where every token is backed 1:1 by the underlying share held in custody by a regulated entity, giving investors direct financial exposure to publicly traded companies.
  • Since launching, xStocks have surpassed $25 billion in total transaction volume across blockchain ecosystems.
  • We're looking for a Social Media Manager to own xStocks' global presence.
  • This is primarily a B2B role - building xStocks' brand credibility, shaping its narrative, and making it the definitive voice for tokenized equities across exchanges, DeFi protocols, chains, and institutional partners.
  • The other side of the role is community; engaging and growing the base of users and holders who believe in what xStocks is building.
  • If you're plugged into crypto and financial markets, know how to speak to both industry insiders and everyday investors, move proactively rather than reactively, and thrive in fast-moving environments, this is your seat.
  • Build and run automations and systems that keep xStocks reactive to market events (quarterly earnings, macro moves, DeFi developments) so the brand is always part of the conversation at the right moment
