Job description

What You'll Do:

• Develop and lead publicity strategies across Tubi Originals, including movies, series, and creator-led content, from early positioning through launch and beyond.
• Find the idea at the center of each campaign: the audience truth, cultural conversation, or earned hook that can make a title or creator matter beyond its launch on Tubi.
• Build campaigns that combine excellent entertainment-publicity fundamentals with unexpected earned ideas, fan participation, creator / cultural partnerships, and opportunities outside traditional entertainment media.
• Lead talent relations strategy across Tubi's slate, working closely with talent, creators, representatives, and producers and serve as a trusted, credible partner in both everyday and high-stakes moments.
• Represent Tubi and support creative executives and talent at major industry and cultural moments, including awards, festivals, premieres, and other high-profile events.
• Lead media strategy across entertainment, culture, consumer, creator economy, and other relevant verticals, maintaining deep relationships while continually expanding the universe of voices that can make a Tubi story travel.
• Work closely with Tubi's Creator team to develop publicity approaches that recognize creators as their own media ecosystems and communities, not simply another category of talent.
• Partner across Content, Creator, Brand, and Social to identify ideas that can begin in publicity but travel across channels (or begin somewhere else and become an earned-media opportunity).
• Spot conversations, emerging talent, fandom behavior, and cultural shifts early enough for Tubi to participate meaningfully rather than chase them.
• Counsel senior executives, talent, and creators with confidence and strong judgment, including in sensitive or fast-moving situations.
• Lead external publicity agencies, setting clear strategy and pushing partners beyond expected tactics and media lists.
• Develop sharp messaging, briefing materials, press materials, and executive / talent preparation.
• Manage and mentor junior members of the Publicity team and help raise the creative and strategic bar across the function.

Your Background:

• 7+ years of entertainment publicity and communications experience, with significant experience across streaming, television, film, and / or creator-led entertainment.
• Deep relationships across the entertainment ecosystem, including media, talent, representatives, producers, and industry partners.
• Exceptional talent-relations instincts and significant experience advising, preparing, and staffing senior executives and talent at major industry moments.
• A proven ability to develop publicity campaigns that earn attention beyond the traditional entertainment publicity cycle.
• Strong cultural instincts and genuine curiosity about creators, fandom, internet culture, and how entertainment discovery and conversation are changing.
• The ability to move fluidly between Hollywood and broader culture: understanding the conventions and relationships of the industry without being constrained by them.
• Excellent judgment and the confidence to counsel senior stakeholders in high-pressure or ambiguous situations.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
• Experience leading agencies and managing or mentoring junior team members.
• A strategic thinker who loves ideas but is equally rigorous about execution.
• Someone who asks "why would anyone care?" before "what's the press plan?"

What Success Looks Like

You become a senior, trusted leader within Tubi's Publicity team: someone our executives, talent, creators, and partners want in the room and someone we trust to independently lead our most important campaigns.

You bring the relationships, judgment, and polish of a seasoned entertainment publicist, without defaulting to the conventions of traditional entertainment publicity. You know when a junket, premiere, or major profile is exactly the right answer, and when the better answer is something nobody has tried yet. You help us earn attention in ways that feel unmistakably Tubi: fan-first, culturally alive, unexpected, and built for how entertainment travels today.
