Assistant Manager/ Manager - Monetisation & Brand Growth

The Team This role sits within Strategy & Media Monetisation at Purplle. The team owns Purplle's media and monetisation business — building commercial products that brands pay for, and building the infrastructure to prove those products work.

About The Role Purplle's off-platform monetisation business helps brands grow on Purplle by reaching its beauty audience outside the app — through managed influencer programs, performance campaigns, sampling, and newer models actively being developed. The portfolio is expanding. This role owns the off-platform monetisation business end-to-end: the product portfolio, the GTM strategy, the revenue number, and the team that delivers it. You will identify new off-platform marketing levers, write the business requirements to get them built, design how they're packaged and priced, and sell them. You will manage a team of influencer managers who own delivery. You will hold the brand relationship from first conversation through deal closure, campaign delivery, and renewal. This is not a campaign execution role. It is a commercial and product strategy role with full P&L accountability. What You Will Do Portfolio Strategy and GTM

• Own the GTM strategy for the entire off-platform monetisation portfolio — how products are positioned, packaged, priced, and sold
• Identify gaps in the off-platform marketing stack and build the commercial case for new levers
• Write business requirements for new monetisation products and work with the product team to get them built
• Design the launch strategy for new products — brand targeting, pricing rationale, pitch narrative, sales process
• Track portfolio performance and recommend adjustments to product mix, pricing, and GTM approach Commercial Ownership
• Own the revenue target for off-platform brand growth programs
• Build and manage an active brand pipeline — proactive and outbound, not inbound-dependent
• Lead brand conversations from prospecting through negotiation, contract closure, and billing
• Drive renewals and upsells at every post-campaign readout Program Design and Delivery
• Design brand growth programs combining influencer marketing, performance campaigns, sampling, and emerging formats — matched to brand objectives, audience strategy, and budget
• Define measurement approach and commit to outcome ranges at deal closure
• Coordinate program execution across your team and internal functions
• Deliver post-campaign readouts with actual vs committed outcome comparisons New Product Development
• Identify whitespace in Purplle's off-platform monetisation stack through brand conversations, market signals, and platform data
• Size the commercial opportunity and build the internal business case
• Write detailed business requirements for product and tech — what needs to be built, why, and what commercial success looks like
• Own the GTM when the product is ready to sell Team Management
• Lead and manage a team of influencer managers
• Set campaign briefs, quality standards, and delivery expectations
• Own hiring, onboarding, and performance management for the team Internal Stakeholder Management
• Work with KAMs on brand relationships, pipeline, and onboarding dependencies
• Brief marketing and product on program requirements and timelines
• Partner with analytics for measurement design and post-campaign reporting
• Coordinate with in-app media team to ensure off-platform and on-platform surfaces are aligned before campaigns go live External Stakeholder Management
• Own the relationship with brand KAMs, category managers, and where relevant, brand leadership
• Navigate brand-side budget approvals and internal dependencies
• Present program proposals and post-campaign readouts to senior brand stakeholders What You Will Bring
