Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Define and lead the overarching content vision and POV across all three brands, grounded in professional expertise and elevated for digital culture.
  • Develop global and regional content frameworks that balance education, inspiration, storytelling, and performance — empowering teams to move quickly without diluting brand integrity.
  • Champion a social-first, platform-native mindset, ensuring content is designed for where professionals and consumers actually engage — not retrofitted from traditional assets.
  • Translate brand strategy, product launches, and educational initiatives into robust content strategies that ladder directly to business objectives.
  • Ensure each brand maintains a distinct voice and role in culture, while operating within a cohesive Beautynova content ecosystem.
  • Act as a strategic partner to Brand Marketing, Education, Sales, Performance Marketing, and Creative, ensuring content is embedded early in campaign and launch planning.
  • Bridge the gap between professional authority and social relevance — helping internal stakeholders understand what resonates in culture without sacrificing credibility.
  • Collaborate with media, PR, partnerships, and retail teams to create integrated content ecosystems across earned, owned, paid, and trade channels.
  • Foster strong relationships with global teams to align content planning, toolkits, and asset creation while allowing for regional nuance.
  • Lead the strategic direction of social media, community, and advocacy efforts across platforms including Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and emerging channels.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in content strategy, social media, digital marketing, or creative leadership roles.

  • Track record of building and scaling content strategies for beauty, grooming, lifestyle, or professional-led brands.
  • Experience working with internal teams, agencies, creators, and production partners.
  • Strong understanding of how to balance brand-building and performance-driven content.
  • Deep understanding of how content ladders to brand strategy, education, and business objectives.
  • Strong instinct for cultural relevance — especially within professional and creator-driven ecosystems.
  • Hands-on knowledge of social platforms and content formats, and what actually performs vs. what just looks good.
  • Fluent in analytics, reporting, and optimization — measurement is a given, not an afterthought.
  • Hybrid work environment with a combination of in-office and remote work.
