• Collaborate with internal teams across departments, offering practical and proactive guidance on how best to work with influencers or talent.
• Work across both paid and organic campaigns – from events and social media to PR and ATL-led influencer integrations.
• Maintain strong industry relationships with agents, managers, and talent where appropriate.
• Embrace our cornerstones of Love & Work, which require a passion for what we do and an ability to persevere. In addition, you will take an active role in our belonging values – collaborating to achieve common goals, connecting with one another in an authentic way, sharing our perspectives and embracing others, and actively supporting each other and our experiences.
