Overview
You are the "Digital Architect" of the Paramount ecosystem on Amazon. Your goal is to own the "Flywheel"-using Paramount's massive content library to drive traffic, which drives sales, which improves search ranking. You ensure that when a customer searches for "Star Trek" or "SpongeBob," they are met with a curated, high-conversion brand experience that seamlessly blends Paramount+ streaming, Physical Media, and Consumer Products.

Responsibilities
  • The "Digital Flywheel" Strategy
    • Lead cross-category initiatives that leverage Paramount's media milestones (theatrical/streaming) to boost retail sales
    • You ensure that a "Top Gun: Maverick" streaming peak on Prime Video channels translates into immediate "Buy Box" wins for Apparel, Home, and Toys.

    • Partner with Retail Development team and Amazon Entertainment and Character team to secure "premium activations in support of key beats digital real estate"
    • You are responsible for negotiating top tier programs to secure high-impact placements like Gateway Placements, Deal of the Day (DOTD), and "New Release" category takeovers
  • Full-Funnel Advertising (Amazon Ads/DSP)
    • Strategize and execute complex campaigns using Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) and DSP
    • You develop and manage a diversified budget to target fans at every stage-from high-funnel "awareness" video ads to bottom-funnel "Sponsored Product" ads that maximize conversion
  • Cross Functional Collaboration
    • Work across internal Retail Development, category and Brand teams as well as manufacture partners and retailers to ensure support of key priorities
  • Strategic Planning
    • Build strategic marketing plans to maximize priorities incorporating relevant media mix, budget development, program development and deployment followed by ongoing measurement and adjustment based on performance
  • Brand Store & A+ Content Management
    • Own the "Paramount Brand Store." You oversee the design and optimization of sub-stores for major franchises (Yellowstone, PAW Patrol), ensuring all product detail pages (PDPs) feature Mobile-Ready Hero Images, SEO-optimized bullets, and high-quality video content
  • Omnichannel Integration (Paramount+ & Physical)
    • Work closely with the Amazon Prime Video teams to create "Watch & Shop" opportunities
    • You manage the studio's "Digital Shelf" health, monitoring OOS (Out of Stock) rates and LBB (Lost Buy Box) to ensure marketing spend isn't wasted on unavailable products
  • Data-Driven Optimization (Brand Analytics)
    • Use Amazon Brand Analytics and Vendor Central data to track shopper behavior
    • You analyze "Search Frequency Rank" and "Market Basket Analysis" to determine which franchises are trending and where to shift marketing investment in real-time


Basic Qualifications
  • 5-8+ years in retail, shopper, or channel marketing, specifically managing a high-volume, multi-category retail account
  • Deep understanding of various retail lifecycles (e.g., the fast-paced nature of Apparel vs. the seasonal peaks of Toys)
  • Proven ability to act as the "connective tissue" between internal licensing category managers and external retail merchants and marketing leads
  • Ability to think and act strategically, finding opportunities to place products in unconventional aisles to capture "cross-basket" sales
