Job Title: Senior Director, Integrated Strategy & Storytelling (e.l.f. Beauty Account)
Role Overview

As the Senior Director, Integrated Strategy & Storytelling, you will be the strategic North Star for one of our agency’s most dynamic, fast-moving, and culturally defining clients: e.l.f. Beauty.

In this role, you will demonstrate the ability to build trusted client relationships and act as a senior strategic advisor, establishing and maintaining long-term strategic relationships with senior media and marketing stakeholders, often at the C-suite and VP level, to build trust and long-range partnership value.

We build beautiful, data-rich strategies, but we need you to give them a soul, a clear point of view, and a radical sense of brevity. You are part master storyteller, part communications planner, and part culture-vulture. Your primary mission is to translate complex digital, creator, and media landscapes into high-impact, concise go-to-market strategies that instill absolute confidence in e.l.f.’s executive leadership.

If you know how to command a room, edit a slide deck down to its absolute essence, and understand how a TikTok trend converts into a checkout cart moment—this is your stage.
