The Role:

The Head of Voice & Channel is the driving force behind Roc Nation Distribution's social presence — executing across all handles, managing the brand's voice, responding to cultural moments in real time and bringing the broader digital strategy to life across every platform. These handles are never dark.

This position is responsible for leading a team of digital marketers and operating in two distinct capacities: as the Voice of Roc Nation Distribution, developing strategies that support and amplify the roster from an organizational perspective; and as the Voice of the Artist, working directly with artists to develop their own social identity and content strategy so they show up authentically on their own channels. The ideal candidate is highly connected, proactive, and fluent across every major social platform.

You will collaborate closely with the VP of Digital Marketing & Strategy and the Digital Strategy team to build and implement year-round campaign strategies.

This role owns a portfolio of brand relationships and contributes directly to achieving and exceeding revenue targets in a highly competitive and fast-paced environment.

Assists artists with their handles — posting on their behalf, flagging areas of interest, and advising on real-time posting opportunities

Accompanies artists to events, performances, and appearances for real-time capture, live posting, and on-the-ground content creation
