The TikTok Content Partnerships' team works with the content side of the business to develop, sell and deliver exciting, fame-making brand partnerships grown from TikTok's best event programming. These 'hero tentpoles' act as vehicles for likeminded advertising partners, and offer a valuable opportunity to play a role in our biggest cultural shaping moments-from top sporting events like the Euros and the Olympics, to native franchises like the StemDrop, pop culture highlights like our collab with the Fashion Awards, to huge global programmes like #CleanTok-we have a rich and exciting slate that brands can be a part of.
We are looking for an experienced self-starter who is passionate about solving multifaceted business challenges in a fast-paced environment, can find solutions to ambiguous problems, be resourceful and bring positivity and humility to the work environment.

These programmes are highly complex creative projects which involve a large number of cross functional teams within TikTok - and external stakeholders, including key clients. As programme lead, you will ensure the project is developed and delivered to it's best iteration, working with teams to create order from what can feel like (exciting!) chaos, whilst maintaining a creative, collaborative and positive team spirit.
