What will you own
The Story TV brand, end to end. This means the strategy behind it, the work that expresses it, the partners who amplify it, and the numbers that prove it's working. Specifically:
Brand strategy and positioning. The argument for who StoryTV is, who it is not, and what it stands for. Tagline, visual identity, and brand architecture as we scale beyond a single app.
Campaigns, both digital and physical. Always-on brand work, tentpole moments around show launches, and the spectacle-driven activations we increasingly lean into (Pink Auto fleets, truck convoys, cultural takeovers).
IP and show marketing. Launching our biggest titles the way a studio launches films. Turning shows into cultural moments, not just content drops.
Talent and creator partnerships. Building the roster, celebrity signings, creator tie-ups, and ambassador programs.
PR, communications, and editorial. Earned media, spokesperson narratives, crisis response, and founder and leadership voice.
Agency ecosystem. Creative, PR, experiential, and production. You are the person they call, the person who briefs them, and the person who holds them to craft.
Brand team and budget. Hiring, structuring, and running the brand org and its spend.
KRAs

- Operationalize brand measurement through brand health studies, share of voice tracking, and a clear read on how brand investment moves business metrics.
- Manage the brand P&L with discipline, and make the case internally for what brand spend is buying.
