Originally launched as VaynerMedia we are 16 years old and have since expanded to 15 beautiful offices across the globe from Los Angeles to London Singapore to Sydney Mexico to Miami; with this role based at our HQ in NYC where it all began.

The PITCH

Were looking for an experienced experiential leader to join us and build the modern IRL capability at VaynerX.

This role includes two key components:

1. Defining and operationalizing VaynerXs experiential vision at the holding company level
2. Building VX Experiential as a scalable agency offering for brand clients

You must LOVE all things social. Our differentiation is simple but powerful: we do not produce events. We engineer experiences as production days. IRL is media. Content is the multiplier. This is an always-on role that moves daily and will put you at the epicenter of culture creators and brand innovation. Our teams are lean. Youll need to dip down and be hands-on when required while also building systems delegating effectively and ensuring day-to-day operations run smoothly. The bar is high. The expectation is excellence. The outcome is industry-leading experiential work that drives real business impact. Youll be passionate about the agencies you represent and relentless about strengthening client and industry relationships across the global company.

Heres where you come in.

This is an in person role based at VXHQ; Hudson Yards in NYC; but youll work seamlessly across all VaynerX offices and eventually regions. Youll deliver best-in-class PR strategies; sharpening the narratives of VaynerMedia and other VaynerX entities while refining the VX experiential narrative as an additional service offering for clients. Youll eventually hire and manage a team.

On the client side you have a blank canvas! Youll work closely with the VaynerX leadership team to service our experiential opportunities and grow it significantly.

Think lab and not agency. We get excited about solving business problems not creating advertising for the sake of making advertising. Our entrepreneurship DNA runs deep. Were willing to break rules try new things and test hypotheses if it means better understanding our craft. Its fun!

Our environment (and pace) feels much more like a start-up than most agencies you might be used to. Hopefully that and the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and enthusiastic crew on amazing brands excites you as it does us.
