We’re growing our team of smart, hungry, and upbeat doers who crave the chance to build something new at the epicenter of content, tech, and culture. We need fearless leaders and pop-culture fiends who work hard and fan hard. Creative problem-solvers who just so happen to be the reigning champs at Parks & Rec trivia night. So if this sounds like you, join our flock. And we promise, we won’t put your stapler in Jell-O.​

We are looking for a world-class strategist who will bring every aspect of our brand to life—from go-to-market planning, to IP, to audience development. Our Manager will engage with the full spectrum of customer/category/cultural insights to develop an overarching messaging strategy, as well as IP/campaign messaging that aligns with our programming cadence and acquisition strategy. The Strategy Manager will help produce marketing performance reviews and work in lock-step with brand & insights colleagues to monitor brand health, on-going consumer studies and category trends. They should have an uncanny ability to bring insights, ideas and recommendations to life using great storytelling and excellent data visualization skills.
Responsibilities could include, but are not limited to:

• Work with the Head of Brand Strategy to define the architecture of our master brand, audience cohorts and IP launches

• Develop a comprehensive communications strategy, determining audience, messages, and targets based on previous evaluation/learnings as well as future insight and business/market context

• Proactively lead re-evaluation of plans throughout the year, making recommendations on revisions or potential challenges and identifying key opportunities to help drive the product’s success

Build and maintain the brand framework model, which outlines our vision, purpose and proposition, working closely with internal stakeholders; own the framing and re-framing of that story as inputs evolve, and how we circulate that to internal stakeholders
