• Design and implement engagement programs (e.g. touchpoints, milestone gifts, feedback loops) that improve retention and satisfaction.
• Build a creator community through digital and offline programs (e.g. workshops, community events).
• Identify and grow underrepresented creator communities (e.g. student organisations, regional voices, commerce sellers).
• Manage and mentor a team of Executives and Senior Executives responsible for acquisition, engagement, and campaign support.

About you
