Our Team

Part of Brand Communications and Impact in the Experiences Organization, the Social Impact team plays for a better tomorrow through strategic investment of EA's resources–people, products, philanthropy, partnerships–to make a positive impact in the communities where we live, work, and play. We create value for the enterprise and strengthen EA's brand and reputation by driving outcomes in closing the opportunity gap in STEAM education and building connected communities where everyone can thrive. In collaboration with company and community stakeholders, we design and amplify high-value, equitable programs and experiences in and around EA's games to enable employees and players around the world to inspire the next generation.

You will build relationships with mission-driven nonprofit organizations and charities to activate all our levers for change and bring the best of EA to inspire the world to play. As a strategic partner with the business, you will have the opportunity to level up our social impact work. You will work in a hybrid work model from the EA Redwood Shores office.

• Build meaningful experiences for our players and fans with activations in and around games that advance enterprise and studio/franchise goals and align to company milestones and tentpole moments.
• Identify strategic charitable giving opportunities and develop partnership plans that help unlock impact at scale across global locations, especially in the UK and Europe.
• Work cross-functionally, specifically with brand and communications teams, Global Affairs, and studio and business unit leaders to develop compelling stories and purpose content that highlight EA's social impact and ESG commitments and progress.
• Develop the goals, plans, and assessment frameworks to measure our impact, and manage the ongoing delivery of metrics and reporting that demonstrate both social and business value and support the enterprise ESG narrative and annual report.
• Monitor best practices and social impact trends to provide insights and benchmarking about local/regional/global community investment opportunities and identify new opportunities.

Qualifications:
• Bachelor's Degree in a relevant field plus 8+ years of professional experience in corporate social responsibility, social impact, or ESG.
• Expert in building and growing a portfolio of programs with creative ideas around employee volunteerism, corporate philanthropy, charitable product activations, and mission-driven partnerships.

• Strong influencing skills with a collaborative approach to enable effective cross-functional teamwork toward a common goal.
• Knowledge of trends, social impact policies, and charitable landscape, particularly in the areas of STEAM education, community investment, and social and DEI issues.
• Passion for creating positive change with and for communities and helping social impact be a competitive advantage and brand-builder for us.
