  • Measure campaign success through clear KPIs and reporting, presenting actionable insights and recommendations to senior stakeholders.
  • Stay ahead of creator, platform, and cultural trends, identifying new opportunities before they become mainstream.

What we're looking for:

  • Strong proven experience in Creator & Influencer Marketing within the gaming industry.
  • A well-established network of creators, agencies, talent managers, and industry contacts.
  • Proven experience planning and delivering creator campaigns from concept through to performance reporting, with demonstrable commercial results.
