- Act locally, think globally. You’ll be leading the strategy for our influencer marketing across the world, but you’ll know how to optimise global initiatives for local markets. Work with and lead different teams to share our vision and values.
- Communicate fearlessly: Working across different business categories, you will figurehead the influencer division, making key decisions and strategically applying process-driven influencer marketing where required, and working toward campaign and business objectives.
