Sr. Director Social and Influencer Marketing

SR. DIRECTOR SOCIAL AND INFLUENCER

LOS ANGELES, CA

Who We Are

Tower 28 is building a world where beauty is accessible, inclusive, and sensitive. We want to push the boundaries of what beauty should be: a mix of high quality, high standards, and high levels of fun. We want to be a beauty big sister, who knows what's right (clean, non-toxic, vegan, cruelty-free) but also knows how to have a good time (clean beauty doesn't have to be so serious!).

What You'll Be Doing

As the Sr. Director of Social and Influencer Marketing, you will lead all digital marketing both earned and owned. You will drive brand awareness, customer engagement, and loyalty by leading the development and execution of impactful social media and influencer strategies. You'll manage influencer campaigns across strategic gifting, disruptive storytelling, and affiliate programs, while owning the brand's presence on social media platforms, driving content strategy, and growing an engaged online community. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration with broader marketing efforts. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in West LA, managing a team of 4-6.
