About the Role

We’re looking for a Social Media Specialist (CIS) to support and execute FACEIT’s social presence across CIS region and on CIS platforms such as Telegram and VK. Reporting into the Senior Social Media Specialist, you’ll be responsible for being FACEIT’s ear to the ground for the region, deeply connected to the community, culture, and conversations shaping competitive gaming locally. You’ll bring FACEIT’s voice to life in a way that feels native to the region, while feeding insights, trends, and ideas back into the global team. While your core focus will be CIS channels, you will also support global channels with regional insight, content, and context — helping shape how FACEIT shows up for players across all touchpoints.

What you’ll do

• Own and execute social content across CIS platforms (Telegram, VK, etc.) and global channels, ensuring consistency and quality;
• Act as FACEIT’s regional voice and listener, surfacing community sentiment, trends, and opportunities;
• Localise global campaigns and narratives for CIS audiences in a culturally relevant way;
• Contribute region-specific content ideas and storytelling formats that resonate with local players;
• Build and nurture the CIS community through active engagement and conversation;
• Plan and schedule content aligned with global priorities and regional needs;
• Monitor performance and sentiment, sharing actionable insights with the wider team;
• Collaborate with global social, product marketing, and creative teams to ensure alignment;
• Support lightweight content creation (copy, briefs, simple assets) where needed;
• Stay deeply connected to the CIS competitive gaming scene, especially Counter-Strike.

What we are looking for

• FACEIT player: you have decent experience with how the FACEIT platform works, with a material number of matches on your profile;
• CIS specialist: you are an expert in Eastern European gaming culture, communities, and platforms, with a strong grasp of player behavior across the wider European ecosystem;
• Community-first operator: you’re naturally plugged into conversations and know how to build trust and relevance within a competitive player base;
• Strong executor with creative instinct: you can deliver consistently while also bringing fresh, regionally relevant ideas to the table;
• Insight-driven: you don’t just post — you listen, interpret sentiment, and feed that back into strategy.
• Collaborative: you work as part of a global team, ensuring regional execution ladders up to a unified FACEIT voice.
