This role sits at the intersection of culture, content, and commerce for one of the world's most iconic prestige beauty brands across the Asia Pacific region.

As an Associate Director, Influencer & Content Strategy you'll be the strategic voice on how the brand shows up in culture — shaping influencer strategy, creative direction, and content frameworks that drive real business impact. You won't be managing creators day-to-day. Instead, you'll be the person who decides how the brand moves in culture, which creators it should be working with, and what content systems will scale.

This is a role for someone who thinks in trends but works in outcomes — someone who can connect what's happening on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube to traffic, search, and conversion.
