Product Creative Studio Strategist

Job Description

The Product Creative Studio (PCS) team partners with content creators and distributors to define how the content is creatively represented on Netflix to members around the world.
Our purpose is to deliver the most compelling discovery experience through artwork, video, and copy to connect our millions of global subscribers to our content. At its core, the PCS Strategist role is grounded in achieving creative excellence for all the assets that represent a title to help members engage with something they love. This role will marry entertainment and visual storytelling with data and innovation to develop assets for touch points across the Netflix experience.

This is your chance to help transform how Netflix Brazillian Originals and Licensed Titles are presented, consumed and perceived by 208 million paid memberships in 190 countries. At Netflix, we have an insatiable need to continually improve our product experience and the creative elements that support it and this team sits at the forefront of this effort.

This role is based in Netflix's Alphaville office with work from home flexibility.

Responsibilities

The Local Language Originals and Licensed Creative Strategist is responsible for launching Netflix shows that are created in Brazil on the Netflix streaming service; overseeing the lifespan of a show from ideation to product deployment across multiple platforms. You will leverage content, marketing, product strategy and testing to create a suite of valuable assets to surprise and delight our Netflix subscribers.

Success is not only based on creating the most varied and visually stimulating cache of assets but also coordinating across numerous internal and external stakeholder groups; being able to form close relationships with various groups within Netflix is just as critical as with studio and showrunner partners across Latin America. You'll create strong partnerships with creative directors, agencies, studios in local markets and other cross-functional teams to define the creative look and feel of a title-telling a story through static artwork, motion, graphics and video elements. Garnering an extremely deep understanding of product strategy will be inherent to your success as well.
