A demonstrated history of identifying emerging cultural trends and translating them into successful, brand-aligned creative concepts.

Responsibilities

Act as the primary cultural sensor for the brand, mining platform, audience, and cultural (PAC) signals to determine which trends and conversations warrant action.
Own the brand’s real-time response strategy, independently determining if, when, and how to engage with breaking news and cultural moments.
Monitor and interpret consumer conversations, comments, and sentiment to identify strategic patterns and creative opportunities.
Analyze in-market social creative and provide real-time optimization recommendations to internal and external partners.
Use social listening and data tools to synthesize consumer insights that inform future creative development and campaign direction.
Maintain platform hygiene through diligent sentiment monitoring, community moderation, and strategic escalation to protect brand reputation.
