Full Job Description
Director of Social & Influencer Marketing will own the full content and social strategy-setting the vision for how Supergoop! shows up across owned channels, creator partnerships, and community.

This role requires someone who can hold the strategic thread across all of it: from the editorial calendar to the influencer tier strategy to the brand franchises that make Supergoop! unmistakable.

What You'll Do

Social & Content Strategy
  • Own the full content and social strategy for Supergoop! across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube-setting the vision for how the brand shows up across every format, franchise, and moment.
  • Partner with the VP to translate the brand messaging into a clear, consistent social point of view that drives both awareness and cultural relevance.
  • Build a content system rooted in the duality of utility and wonder: content that earns daily trust and content that makes people stop scrolling.
  • Develop long- and short-term roadmaps supporting hero franchise moments (Unseen, Play), key retail partnerships, and cultural platforms (PGA TOUR, Alterra, and beyond).
  • Own platform strategy with clear channel roles-understanding what Instagram Feed, Reels, Stories, TikTok, and YouTube each uniquely do for the brand.
  • Maintain a sharp read on the competitive landscape and ensure Supergoop! occupies the white space between expert authority and cultural relevance.

Influencer & Community Strategy
  • Own the influencer and community strategy as an integrated part of the broader content vision-ensuring creator content, organic community, and owned social feel like one cohesive brand world, not separate workstreams.
  • Set the multi-tiered influencer strategy aligned with brand, product, partnership, and commercial priorities-defining the role of creators across the full funnel (awareness 12 consideration 12 conversion 12 loyalty).
  • Guide the Manager of Influencer Marketing on paid creator strategy, campaign execution, and performance optimization; guide the Manager of Community Engagement on organic creator relationships, UGC, and social listening.
  • Develop long-term ambassador programs and brand-building paid partnerships; oversee negotiations and contracts with creators and agencies as needed.
  • Identify cultural moments, platform shifts, and audience signals worth acting on-and know which ones to let pass.
  • Build the habit-driving content systems-reminders, rituals, relatable moments-that move people from aware to loyal.

Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Partnership
  • Lead two direct reports-Manager of Community Engagement and Manager of Influencer Marketing-setting clear strategic direction, swim lanes, and shared accountability to the overall content and community vision.
  • Partner closely with the Manager of Content Strategy & Creative (dotted line, Creative team) to ensure content execution is fully in service of the social strategy-providing creative briefs, directional feedback, and editorial guidance without owning that function directly.
  • Ensure the full team operates with both strategic rigor and creative confidence.
  • Give clear feedback, build trust, and create room for people to grow across both direct and dotted-line relationships.

Campaign & Partnership Execution
  • Partner closely with brand, product, paid media, DTC, and retail marketing teams to ensure a cohesive owned/earned approach to campaigns, launches, and always-on storytelling.
  • Support planning and execution of experiences and events-inclusive of venue, invite lists, production, and content contracts-in collaboration with agencies as needed.
  • Oversee end-to-end new launch mailers, always-on product seeding, and fulfillment of influencer product needs in collaboration with Creative.
  • Ensure content is on-brand, platform-native, and performance-optimized across both owned channels and creator partnerships.

Content Franchises & Brand Storytelling
  • Create, oversee, and evolve Supergoop!'s content franchises, prioritizing educational and community-driven formats.
  • Ensure every franchise has a clear objective, a repeatable format, and a reason to exist that a competitor couldn't replicate.
  • Balance campaign-driven content with always-on storytelling.
  • Champion content that makes SPF feel like part of the life people already want to live.
  • Test new formats-UGC, affiliates, live shopping, community programs-and bring fresh thinking to how creators show up in brand storytelling.

Performance & Optimization
  • Own social KPIs across awareness, engagement, reach, saves, shares, and community growth; own influencer KPIs including EMV, impressions, creator retention, and competitive SOV.
  • Build reporting frameworks that connect content and creator performance to business impact.
  • Establish annual and quarterly roadmaps, budgets, and KPIs across the full social and influencer scope.
  • Use data to make creative decisions, not override them. Know when a post is underperforming because of distribution and when it's a signal to rethink the idea.
  • Partner with paid media teams on whitelisting, amplification, and creator-led content strategies.
  • Present insights and recommendations to senior leadership in a way that's clear, confident, and action-oriented.
  • Stay ahead of creator economy trends, platform updates, FTC guidelines, and cultural shifts.

Qualifications
  • Preferred 10+ years of experience spanning social media and influencer marketing, with time in a leadership role.
  • Deep expertise in Instagram and TikTok-you understand not just how the platforms work but how culture moves through them.
  • A proven ability to own an integrated content strategy across owned social, influencer, and community-connecting the threads rather than managing them in silos.
  • A strong track record building content systems and creator programs, not just posting calendars. You've built franchises and influencer tiers that lasted.
  • Experience providing creative direction for social-first content-you can brief a shoot, redirect a caption, and know the difference between a hook that works and one that doesn't.
  • Proven success scaling EMV growth and measuring influencer performance across platforms using tools like Creator IQ or similar.
  • A thoughtful people manager who gives clear feedback, builds trust, and creates room for people to grow; comfortable managing both direct reports and dotted-line relationships across teams.
  • Genuine fluency in the beauty and/or wellness space-you understand the category, the consumer, and what makes SPF uniquely challenging to market.
  • Strong analytical skills with experience building reporting frameworks that connect community and creator activity to business outcomes.
  • Experience managing budgets and vendor/agency relationships, with a track record of delivering high-impact campaigns on time and within scope.
  • A strong point of view, excellent editorial judgment, and the confidence to defend creative decisions with strategy.
  • Ability to hold the tension between utility and aspiration-making sunscreen feel both necessary and something people actually want.
