Airbnb content strategists work closely with product designers and researchers to shape experiences, build trust with our community, and evolve our brand voice. We’re just starting to build our practice, and we’re already expanding our team to include bilingual content strategists for our China team, both in Beijing and San Francisco.
China is the world’s largest, and fastest growing, outbound travel market. Airbnb is on the ground building new products for Chinese travelers and learning how to adapt our core experiences for different markets. If you’re excited about writing product and marketing content in simplified Chinese and helping us reach this audience with a truly local experience, we’d love to hear from you.
