360° Creative Sales - Sell full-service creative partnerships — including strategy, branded content, influencer activations, social and digital media, events, and production.

Sales Ownership - Manage the entire sales cycle: prospecting, pitch development, proposal writing, negotiation, and deal closing.

Client Relationship Building - Maintain and grow relationships with senior-level stakeholders, serving as a strategic advisor and cultural consultant.

Internal Collaboration - Work closely with Creative, Strategy, and Client Servicing teams to shape and deliver campaigns that are insight-driven, relevant, and high impact.

Market & Cultural Intelligence - Stay ahead of market trends, client needs, cultural shifts, and competitor movements to identify new opportunities and sharpen your strategic approach.

Brand Representation - Act as the face of Hypebeast and Hypemaker in the GBA market — representing our unique capabilities in meetings, industry events, and the wider client community.

8+ years of experience in brand partnerships, creative sales, or media/agency business development.

Fluent in Cantonese and English (listening and speaking) and solid written English for reports, decks, and email communications; conversational Mandarin is preferred.

Active and trusted network within GBA’s fashion, beauty, retail, and lifestyle industries.

Strong understanding of integrated campaign sales and content-driven marketing.

Proven track record of meeting/exceeding sales targets and managing high-level accounts.

Excellent communication, presentation, and strategic storytelling skills.
