  • Ideate executional approaches inspired by innovations and contemporary marketing trends 
  • Give clear and actionable feedback to team members based on a deep understanding of their skill sets and creative tools

REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS ROLE

  • You understand how to be authentically native on social platforms via short-form video, motion graphics, trending sounds, etc.
  • You are cool and focused under pressure and in the face of a high volume of deliverables
  • You are a strong communicator who treats co-workers and clients with empathy and respect
