  • Partner across Brand, Creative, Comms, Marketing, Partner Marketing, Paid Media, and external agencies to develop integrated campaigns, co-marketing activations, and cultural partnerships.
  • Identify opportunities for Spotify to authentically participate in culture and develop proactive editorial programming that keeps Spotify relevant between major marketing moments.
  • Lead social content-capture strategy for live events and experiential activations, identifying real-time storytelling opportunities and partnering with creators, talent, and production teams on social-first content.

  • You can turn strategy into an executable plan and drive complex, cross-functional work from ambiguity through delivery.
  • You understand how social contributes throughout the marketing funnel and how campaigns can evolve beyond launch into ongoing audience participation.
  • You have strong editorial instincts and can balance long-term strategic planning with thoughtful real-time decision-making.

  • You can communicate strategic recommendations clearly to senior stakeholders and help large, cross-functional groups move toward shared goals.
