📋 Description

• Develop and lead OpenAI’s brand partnership strategy, identifying the people, organizations, platforms, and cultural opportunities that can strengthen the brand and advance its mission. • Build a pipeline of high-impact partnerships that help OpenAI participate meaningfully in culture, reach priority audiences, and demonstrate the positive role AI can play in people’s lives. • Evaluate partnership opportunities based on audience relevance, values alignment, cultural credibility, creative potential, and long-term brand impact. • Serve as the primary marketing lead for key partners, building trusted relationships and guiding programs from initial opportunity through strategy, negotiation, development, and execution. • Shape the strategic and creative vision for partnerships, developing distinctive programs, campaigns, content, events, experiences, and activations that feel authentic to both OpenAI and its partners. • Work closely with Partnerships, Brand, Creative, Communications, Global Affairs, Research, Legal, and regional teams to identify opportunities and bring partnership programs to life. • Help define the role OpenAI should play across culture, including entertainment, sports, design, education, science, the arts, and other areas relevant to the audiences we want to reach. • Identify and cultivate relationships with influential individuals and institutions whose credibility, expertise, or cultural relevance can help bring OpenAI’s values and impact to life. • Develop clear partnership narratives and value propositions that articulate why OpenAI and a prospective partner should work together and what each party uniquely contributes. • Protect OpenAI’s brand integrity by establishing clear principles for partner selection, creative development, and execution. • Create scalable frameworks for identifying, evaluating, prioritizing, and managing partnership opportunities across markets and cultural categories. • Define success measures for brand partnerships, using audience, brand, cultural, and engagement signals to assess impact and inform future investment. • Translate cultural trends, audience insights, and program performance into recommendations that continuously improve OpenAI’s partnership strategy.

🎯 Requirements

• Have 12+ years of experience in brand partnerships, cultural marketing, strategic partnerships, integrated marketing, entertainment or sports marketing, or a related field. • Have a proven track record developing partnerships that strengthened a brand’s cultural relevance, expanded its reach, or built credibility with important audiences. • Bring strong cultural fluency and a clear point of view on the people, institutions, platforms, and ideas shaping culture. • Have excellent brand judgment and can assess opportunities based on values alignment, audience relevance, authenticity, creative potential, and long-term brand impact. • Are skilled at identifying partnership opportunities and turning an initial idea or shared ambition into a compelling strategy and program. • Have experience developing campaigns, content, events, experiences, and activations with external partners. • Can build trusted relationships with influential individuals, creators, organizations, and institutions, while aligning stakeholders with different priorities. • Can translate OpenAI’s mission, values, and work into partnership ideas that feel relevant and authentic rather than transactional or overly promotional. • Have strong verbal and written communication skills and are comfortable influencing senior stakeholders internally and externally. • Thrive in highly cross-functional environments and can work effectively across Brand, Creative, Communications, Partnerships, Global Affairs, Research, Legal, and regional teams. • Balance strategic thinking, creative ambition, and hands-on execution, moving comfortably from identifying an opportunity to bringing it to life. • Have strong project management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple partners, programs, and priorities simultaneously. • Use audience insights, cultural signals, brand research, and program performance to evaluate impact and improve future partnerships. • Enjoy building new strategies, programs, relationships, and ways of working in fast-moving and ambiguous environments.
