Description

UnitedMasters, Inc. is a first-of-its-kind company that lives at the intersection of culture, tech, and storytelling. Through its creative solutions company, Translation, it builds ideas that transcend traditional marketing to drive business results through cultural impact. The Context Director role is a leadership position that demands creative foresight, cultural nuance, business acumen, cross-functional collaboration, and a deep connection to what's moving the world today.

  • Analyze hero deliverables and provide cultural nuance that infuses insider fan perspective.
  • Facilitate onboarding for new hires and partner across PR, Media, and Social teams.
  • Serve as a core member of the business leadership team and mentor DRs across IC1–IC3 levels.

Qualifications:

  • 7–9 years of experience in cultural strategy, brand planning, or creative strategy roles.
  • Proven experience leading multi-channel campaigns from insight through execution.
  • Strong writing and storytelling skills.
  • Proficiency in Keynote, Google Suite, and qualitative research tools.
