The Role
We are the world’s biggest fans of entertainment, and we’re always looking to give members the thrill of the next great story. It’s an exciting time to join Netflix as we continue to raise the bar and innovate in how we serve our fans and members.
About The Team
The Marketing Partnerships team collaborates with external partners and internal cross-functional teams to create compelling campaigns, activations, sponsorships, and other innovative solutions. As part of our overall marketing efforts, we partner with admired consumer brands to promote our titles and fuel fandom with creative marketing campaigns that drive outsized conversation. These ‘Brand Partnerships’ allow us to unlock new channels, reward fans, and engage new audiences. Importantly, these partnerships are an opportunity to develop unique ideas that neither brand could do without each other. Examples of the work created by this group can be found here - https://www.netflixmp.com/
About The Role
You will lead outreach with potential brand partners to build relationships and gain a deep understanding of their goals, planning process, creative ambition, and core equities. You will negotiate and shape robust partnerships with admired brands in support of Netflix’s most prominent films and series.
At the earliest stages of development, you will work cross-functionally with the content, marketing, and legal teams to identify titles that strategically align with the Netflix Brand Partnership approach. You will research and engage with a cross-section of brands to identify potential partners and find meaningful connections between titles, audiences, and partner’s marketing priorities.
You will be a part of a multi-disciplinary working team within the Marketing Partnerships function. These working teams consist of a brand partner lead (this role) who leads partner engagement and sets the conditions for a successful partnership; a strategy lead that develops strategic intersections between our title and a brand’s positioning; a creative lead who oversees the campaign development; and a production lead that helps to bring the idea to life. You will be tasked with building mutually beneficial deals, using your judgment, business context, and experience to craft a custom approach. You’ll contribute toward the development of highly creative co-promotional campaigns that increase awareness, interest and conversation for both the partner brand and the title. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to any aspect of our partnerships, from deals to creative ideas, so the ideal candidate will have an entrepreneurial spirit.
You will build brand partnership presentations, lead partner discussions and negotiations, and manage partner relationships. You will also work with title marketing, media, publicity, and social teams to integrate partnership campaigns into title marketing plans and look to extend these campaigns across countries and regions should there be an opportunity to do so. This role will be responsible for the overall partner relationship, with a focus on maintaining open communication before, during, and after the execution of a partnership campaign.
This role will also be at the forefront of establishing the output of our emerging integrated marketing and sponsorship offerings, which are new to Netflix and come on the back of our Ad-supported tier and our increasing ventures into live entertainment. It’s a huge opportunity to be at the forefront of a new Netflix offering, one that not only continues to prove how Netflix is the most innovative entertainment company in the world but also helps to deliver and grow an important new revenue stream for the business.
