Job Summary

Own and accelerate UnitedMasters social as a culture-driven growth engine, turning channels into a competitive moat while unifying cross-functional teams around a single story.

  • Lead a culturally fluent social strategy that moves with conversations, creators, and real-time moments.
  • Serve as the connective thread across product, design, data science, and brand to ship fast and maintain a consistent narrative.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Build and scale a social presence that moves at the speed of culture
  • Turn UnitedMasters' social channels into a defining advantage for the company, not a support function
  • Lead a culturally fluent, fandom-native social strategy attuned to the conversations, creators, and moments shaping music and pop culture in real time
  • Set UnitedMasters apart from category competitors: define a social presence and brand voice that legacy distributors can’t replicate, leveraging music, culture, and our deep artist relationships to build a moat that the rest of the category can’t cross

  • Develop product positioning and messaging grounded in user research, market insights, and a deep understanding of the platform

Requirements

  • 10+ years of marketing leadership with deep, demonstrable expertise in social media. You are a social-first marketing leader, not a generalist who happens to oversee social.
  • Demonstrated ability to build and scale social channels with cultural relevance and creative ambition
  • Experience growing consumer mobile, web, and/or enterprise-SaaS products, with clear results on business metrics and revenue growth
  • Experience managing both qualitative and quantitative customer research
  • Strong management experience leading cross-functional marketing teams; able to recruit, develop, and retain world-class talent
  • High intellectual horsepower, equally comfortable with spreadsheets and great creative
  • Extreme empathy and curiosity for our artist and brand customers
  • Startup, do-er mentality
  • International marketing experience
  • Experience working closely with an in-house or external creative agency
