• Oversee moments beyond traditional press, including partnerships, creator activations, events and experiences tied to LinkedIn’s campaigns and business priorities.
• Manage external agency partners, developing strong briefs, pushing for creative ideas and driving work from concept through execution.
• Measure what works and apply those learnings, continually evolving our consumer storytelling and partnerships approach.
