  • Partner closely with executive operational leadership, overseeing social-first storytelling, scalable content ecosystems, and brand voice across proactive and reactive engagement, ensuring content is platform-native, high quality, and aligned to brand standards.
  • Lead influencer, creator, paid social, and agency partner strategy to maximize cultural relevance, advocacy, and business impact, while integrating social with sponsorships, media, attribution, targeting, and performance marketing.
  • Drive company-wide executive social council and oversee cross-functional working groups. Lead integrated acquisition strategies including drive-online, drive-to-store and drive-to-call initiatives.

  • Proven experience building influencer and creator programs that go beyond vanity metrics
  • Executive presence and communication skills that command a boardroom and inspire a team
  • Experience managing complex, multi-agency ecosystems with the judgment to know when partners are adding value and when they're not

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
