HOLD: Global Manager, Paid Media; Beauty, $90-100K; NYC

Are you ready to join a company that is all about diversity and individuality?

This category-leading Beauty brand has collaborations with adored names from popular culture, art and fashion. Sold today in over 120 countries around the world, the brand remains committed to developing new categories, products and over 50 collections each year, all of which continue to serve the demand of consumers and professional makeup artists alike. The brand’s popularity has grown through a tradition of word-of-mouth endorsement from makeup artists, models, photographers and journalists around the world. As a brand-led innovation company — aimed at reaching the most discerning consumers around the world, regardless of age or ethnicity — they have a rich understanding of the competitive beauty landscape and a command of the social, digital and traditional communications platforms needed to connect with audiences.

Are you a talented and strategic Media mind with a passion for beauty? Come help develop and amplify a body-positive corporate, brand and product message. We’re seeking a Global Media Manager with 5+ years of experience to join an in-house team, establishing, facilitating and maintaining the brand media strategy across regions and the globe. You’ll be in daily communication with the Global Consumer Marketing team, Creative and all other contributing departments, overseeing the development, delivery of an integrated range of programs – print, digital, video, social media, experiential, promotions, retail, collateral, etc. This is less about execution of media buys (though there might be a bit if it’s a test and learn), but the main role is to create global media frameworks, strategies and KPIs for each of your efforts, partner with the global media agency and ensure delivery of the right assets. As shopping habits and social media converge, and as digital commerce becomes increasingly important, digital capabilities and insights are helping to create a seamless omnichannel experience to capture new opportunities.

YOU should be a motivated self-starter who can take a macro level view while managing the details of the nitty-gritty. Our team serves in a hybrid function that requires strong Media Strategy and Project Management capabilities while servicing the internal client and any of our external partners. We are only seeking candidates with previous Media Strategy experience; global/regional experience ideal, or at minimum a very global mindset with a P&G model background. Previous work in communications planning also a major plus. You’ll take ownership of projects and seamlessly follow through from inception to execution. Pro-active and flexible, you can adapt to the personalities of a large global team and provide support where needed.  Beauty, luxury, fashion, lifestyle or other image-based brand experience a plus.

The company is committed to developing the next generation of leaders with a strong focus on professional growth and continuous learning; their signature executive education programs stimulate professional growth and cultivate business relationships across the enterprise. The global nature of your work across multiple regions and brands, functions and channels provides fertile ground for mobility and career growth. An inclusive culture embraces diversity of thought and empowers individuals to think as entrepreneurs. Further, corporate citizenship and sustainability are central to their beliefs — from employee volunteerism and cause-related campaigns to the creation of high-performing and safe products, all while caring for people and the environment.
