Experience: 10-12+ years of marketing experience, with at least 8+ years specifically leading social media and influencer functions, and 5+ years managing and developing teams (agency or in-house).

Multi-Brand Management: Proven track record leading social and influencer programs across multiple brands simultaneously, maintaining distinct voices, strategies, and KPIs for each.

CPG / Food & Beverage Industry Knowledge: Deep familiarity with retail-driven, consumer-packaged goods marketing rhythms — including seasonal programming, retailer support, and product launches.

Fashion, lifestyle, or culture-forward brand experience also a strong fit.

Creative Taste & Editorial Eye: Exceptional creative sensibility with an uncompromising standard for content quality.

You know the difference between content that builds a brand and content that just fills a calendar — and you can articulate and defend that standard.

SEASONED FOR SUCCESS:

No two days here are the same.

We try to be good team members and good communicators, but we don’t live by hierarchy and structure – everyone is a difference maker here.

We make a lot of decisions in the face of incomplete information – our team embraces ambiguity and tries to make good decisions fast rather than great decisions slow.

We believe our job is to take smart risk, not to eliminate risk.
