About the Role

• Collaborate with editorial, marketing, and commercial teams to produce branded content and integrated content solutions that meet both audience and partner objectives.
• Monitor video performance metrics and implement data-driven adjustments to production priorities, formats, and publishing cadence.

What You Bring
