2023 Finance Social Media Career Report
We don’t have to sugarcoat what you probably already know…
Social media marketers are overworked, overwhelmed, and underappreciated. Particularly social media managers that work in finance.
We surveyed more than 3,800 social marketers who confirmed that they juggle too many different tasks, work long hours, feel misunderstood by their bosses, don’t have enough time or budget to do their best work, and feel they don’t get paid what they’re worth.
348 respondents to our survey work in financial institutions around the world. This micro-report covers what they told us.
What you’ll learn
- How much the average social marketer in finance makes compared to peers in other industries
- A breakdown of average age, ethnicity, gender, and level of education for social marketers in finance
- How satisfied finance social marketers are at work (and what factors make the biggest difference)
