  • Partner with cross-functional teams on social strategy and execution to capture the brand's presence and end-user engagement.
  • Manage analytics, track audience growth, and generate campaign-specific metrics, focusing on content performance and audience engagement.
  • Help build and manage strong relationships with influencers and micro-creators throughout various verticals to increase authentic advocacy and brand love, and facilitate content creation where appropriate.
