About ZURU
ZURU is a reimagination company. We look for categories that have stood still, then we build next-generation products and brands that set the new standard. ZURU Toys is reimagining play. ZURU Edge is reinventing everyday consumer brands. Rhodes Pet Science is reimagining pet science. ZURU Tech is leading the next building revolution.
ZURU started in 2003 with two brothers from New Zealand, and we're still founder-owned and operated today. Since then we've become the world's second-biggest privately held toy company, and nearly half of all Gen Y and Gen Z households with kids in the US own a ZURU product. Today we're 5,000 people in 34 offices, selling into more than 150 markets, backed by over 100 acres of fully automated manufacturing. And we're only getting started.
Position Impact
At ZURU Edge Beauty we don't make ads. We make culture, filling feeds with ideas that stop thumbs, start conversations and build brand worlds people want to be part of. This role decides how our beauty brands show up on social every day, working closely with the Social & Content, Brand, Creative and Digital teams so our brands feel relevant, distinctive and native to each platform. You'll have a dedicated TikTok partner and direct access to Meta, Snapchat and YouTube, and a flat structure close to the founders means good ideas go live fast. It's a growing team, with room to grow with it.

Partner with Brand, Creative and Digital teams to bring global campaigns, product launches and key moments to life on social
