• Serve as a day-to-day marketing contact for assigned platform partners, building strong relationships that support collaboration and promotional opportunities.
• Develop and deliver compelling partner presentations, marketing pitches, campaign recaps, and promotional recommendations tailored to partner priorities.
• Maintain a strong understanding of partner merchandising capabilities, promotional formats, and business objectives while proactively identifying new opportunities to increase visibility for A+E content.

• 3+ years of experience in entertainment, marketing, or streaming — in a fast-paced, partner-centric environment. 
• Knowledge of media, entertainment, streaming, FAST channels, AVOD/SVOD licensing, DTO, DTC partner environments, audience development, or multiplatform distribution businesses preferred.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with proven experience presenting plans to internal and external stakeholders. 
• Proven success in driving earned media, building lasting partner relationships, and influencing platform support through compelling marketing. 
• A team-first, solutions-driven mindset with strong communication and presentation skills — able to lead conversations, not just support them.

• A collaborative and flexible work style — comfortable managing multiple timelines, people, and evolving priorities in quick turnaround environments. 
• Analytical mindset with experience using campaign data to measure outcomes, inform strategy, and report impact.
