About The Position

Blueair, as part of Unilever, is a rapidly growing global brand with consumer health at its core. We believe that no matter where you live, your lifestyle, or your specific health needs, air health is vital to your well-being. Over the last 30 years, Blueair has built a team of creative thinkers, health enthusiasts, and innovators who are passionate about our impactful products. We are seeking to add to our entrepreneurial and dynamic culture with a Social & Influencer Marketing Lead supporting the Brand team. Reporting to the Head of Brand, you will help lead Blueair's Social & Influencer Marketing function, turning owned social, creator relationships, and community advocacy into a measurable growth engine for the brand. You will help set direction across a broader social team spanning content, community, influencer, affiliate, UGC, and creator commerce. You will own the implementation of the global strategy across social and influencer, partnering closely with Brand, PR, Creative, Product Marketing, DTC, and regional teams to keep Blueair distinctive, culturally relevant, and present in the places consumers discover, research, and talk about air health. You will also help shape how the function operates as Blueair scales, from measurement and ways of working to the tools, partners, and frameworks the team needs to succeed. Your success will be measured by the strength of the audiences, communities, and creator relationships you build, the impact social and influencer programs have on brand and business outcomes, and the degree to which Blueair becomes a brand people actively choose to engage with, recommend, and participate in over time. We believe that we're better together. Our team is hybrid and requires applicants to live commuting distance from our New York location and be in office Tuesday through Thursday. At Blueair you'll be part of a global team with creative minds collaborating from around the world. We work across time zones, so some flexibility in working hours is part of the adventure. It's a chance to connect with passionate teammates worldwide, gain diverse perspectives, and help build a brand that resonates across cultures.
