You will bring deep experience in strategic assessment within the streaming or digital media industry, including hands-on exposure to membership and loyalty models (e.g., subscriber value optimization, engagement, retention, or tiered offerings). You must possess a strong partnership evaluation framework and can build rigorous strategic and financial business cases. You will work cross-functionally and requires confidence to lead with minimal direction and work independently.

Responsibilities:
  • Identify, structure, and assess new growth opportunities, including new business models, loyalty or membership concepts, and adjacent revenue streams
  • Proactively surface ideas, pressure-test them, and determine strategic fit and scalability
  • Lead end-to-end evaluation of partnership opportunities in close collaboration with Partnerships and Business Development teams
  • Develop and apply partnership frameworks to assess strategic alignment, value creation, risks, and long-term impact
  • Identify and evaluate key growth levers by developing strategic frameworks to assess initiative viability, subscriber impact, and financial outcomes
  • Develop business cases and strategic memos to identify new opportunities, articulate rationale, and evaluate past initiatives
  • Vet new vendors and external partners, assessing strategic relevance, differentiation, and financial impact
  • Independently lead cross-functional workstreams to explore, pilot, and validate strategic initiatives
  • Act as the central driver, aligning stakeholders across strategy, finance, product, partnerships, and operations
  • Translate complex analysis into clear executive-level narratives and recommendations
  • Create and present clear and compelling strategic presentations to communicate pricing and growth recommendations to stakeholders across the organization
  • Analyze and synthesize strategic insights for dissemination via presentations, wrap-up documents, and leadership briefings


Qualifications
  • Bachelor's Degree in Marketing, Business, or an analytical field
  • 8+ years of experience in strategy, business analysis, pricing, or growth, ideally within the streaming, subscription, or digital entertainment space
  • Experience crafting business cases and strategic recommendations based on both quantitative and qualitative inputs with both strategic and financial rigor
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills and ability to work cross-functionally and influence stakeholders without direct authority
  • Detail-oriented, organized, and able to work flexibly across departments in a dynamic, fast-paced environment
  • Comfort operating in high-ambiguity environments with minimal direction.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office suite (especially PowerPoint and Excel)

Desired Characteristics
  • Self-starter mindset: Proactively identifies opportunities, generates ideas, and moves them forward independently
  • Strategic thinker: Able to step back, see the broader ecosystem, and evaluate second- and third-order impacts
  • Partnership-savvy: Understands how partnerships create value and how to evaluate them strategically and financially
  • Executive communicator: Can synthesize complex analysis into clear, compelling insights and recommendation

Additional Requirements
  • Hybrid: This position currently has a hybrid schedule, which requires contributing from the office a minimum of four days per week. The Company reserves the right to change in-office requirements at any time.
