Lead the Evolution of Consumer Experience in a Digital-First World

A confidential industry leader in media, marketing, and technology is seeking a Director for its Experience Center—a role dedicated to shaping the future of how brands, platforms, and consumers engage through emerging experiences.

The Experience Center is where innovation meets strategy. Focused on platforms like gaming, immersive technology, AR/VR, and the creator economy, this Center explores what's next and creates actionable guidance for the ecosystem. In this role, you'll drive collaboration across companies and disciplines, guide industry thought leadership, and facilitate programs that help marketers, tech platforms, and content creators thrive in evolving environments.

If you're a strategic thinker, skilled communicator, and passionate about the intersection of technology, creativity, and culture, this role offers the rare chance to define the playbook for what's next.

What You'll DoSet the Strategic Vision

• Help develop and execute the strategic roadmap for the Experience Center in partnership with the VP, aligning on high-impact priorities across gaming, immersive experiences, and the creator economy.
• Identify trends, friction points, and opportunities where cross-industry collaboration and thought leadership can unlock value and accelerate innovation.
• Translate insights into compelling projects—from guidelines and best practices to market research, education, and executive engagement.

Drive Industry Engagement & Collaboration

• Lead member-based working groups and committees, uniting diverse stakeholders to build consensus and co-create solutions around emerging platforms.
• Plan and facilitate town halls, workshops, and strategy sessions, ranging from 10 to 100 participants, both virtually and in person.
• Serve as a trusted facilitator who can guide senior leaders through complex conversations and drive alignment on next steps.

Create & Share Insightful Content

• Author or contribute to high-impact thought leadership, including whitepapers, best practices documents, blogs, decks, and public-facing presentations.
• Partner with internal teams on research studies and standards development that support Center objectives.
• Represent the Experience Center at industry events, working sessions, and internal activations.

Support Execution & Operational Success

• Work cross-functionally with teams focused on research, events, standards, and education to bring Experience Center initiatives to life.
• Oversee committee operations and project timelines to ensure Center goals are met with excellence and efficiency.
• Manage content and strategy integration into broader organizational tentpoles such as flagship events, leadership forums, and campaigns.

Who You Are

• You have 4+ years of experience in business strategy, innovation, product marketing, partnerships, or thought leadership in a digital-first, tech-forward environment.
• You have strong subject matter fluency in one or more of the following: gaming, AR/VR, emerging tech platforms, immersive technology, content creator ecosystems, or immersive brand experiences.
• You're a strategic communicator who can take complex ideas and turn them into clear, engaging narratives—verbally, visually, and in writing.
• You're confident facilitating groups of senior stakeholders, balancing diverse perspectives while moving conversations toward alignment and action.
• You have exceptional project management skills and enjoy leading cross-functional initiatives from concept to completion.
• You understand the broader digital media and advertising landscape—and are energized by the future of consumer engagement.

Bonus Points If You Have

• Experience working in a trade group, media organization, tech platform, or agency environment.
• Familiarity with frameworks and standards that support industry alignment or best practice creation.
• A track record of thought leadership via published work, public speaking, or workshop facilitation.
• A graduate degree in business, media innovation, strategy, or related fields.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Industry Impact: Help shape the next chapter of audience engagement across platforms people love and use daily.
• Cross-Sector Collaboration: Work with leaders across media, gaming, tech, and content to solve real industry challenges.
• Thought Leadership with Purpose: Your ideas won't just inspire—they'll influence product roadmaps, marketing investments, and industry-wide decisions.
• Growth & Visibility: Be part of a high-profile, high-impact function with access to executives, partners, and the future of the industry.
