This role owns our multimedia content engine:, creators and talent, producers, editors, and operations across all of the consumer multimedia franchises we run. This is a new role to the company that’s essential for where we are going and you will own management, optimization and development of the incredibly talented teams that produce our award winning, audience loved, and industry defining multimedia content.

• The MBI multimedia blueprint. Creator and talent strategy, social strategy, and all aspects of our content approach across each of the multimedia franchises we operate. Protecting the current castle and working to build upon it + future proof it as platforms, channels and audiences evolve.
• Operational optimizations. Spotting where the content or team gets stuck in our processes, diagnosing why and having the experience to know how it can get unstuck. This requires being close enough to the work that you can both see points of friction and have enough context to know how to solve them.
• The quality and special brew of our content. Standards, accountability, and quality control across every brand under your management and across both editorial and branded content. While ensuring it all fits within the unique tone and perspective of business media that makes MBI special. Your job is to constantly define multimedia content expectations (internally and externally), clearly communicate those standards to all parties and then ensure that there is genuinely understanding and adoption.
• Creator and talent management. You’ll be the day-to-day manager of our MBI talent roster - the people who are the faces of our multimedia franchises to millions of weekly viewers and listeners. This part of the job requires strong existing experience working with and managing talent to maximize their potential, support their creative aspirations and guide them on behalf of the business.
• Multimedia Distribution. Tight coordination with Account Operations, Audience, and Ad Ops so content reaches the right audiences on the right channels, on both branded and editorial sides. While staying on top of the latest platform level dynamics that could influence our distribution strategies.
• The content-and-revenue interface. Each multimedia franchise and channel within them is a business: inventory, strategy, optimization, monetization. You must understand the ad products that support your franchises and act as the person who can reliably find a pragmatic balance between creative ideation and monetization. You will be the arbiter on day-to-day debates between what a client wants and what a franchise can credibly deliver.
  
  You'll also advocate for your teams who are focused on creating magic on a daily basis, loudly and in the right rooms when necessary.
