VP, Global Fashion and Cultural Partnerships

#WeAreParamount on a mission to unleash the power of content… you in? We’ve got the brands, we’ve got the stars, we’ve got the   power   to achieve our mission to entertain the planet – now all we’re missing is… YOU! Becoming a part of Paramount means joining a team of passionate people who not only recognize the power of content but also enjoy a touch of fun and uniqueness. Together, we co-create moments that matter – both for our audiences and our employees – and aim to leave a positive mark on culture.   Overview: Paramount is creating a new senior role to build and lead its global fashion and cultural partnerships capability. Reporting to the Head of Creative, the VP will serve as a strategic creative partner to Commercial, Franchise, Studio, and other key teams. The role will use fashion, design, and cultural partnerships to elevate Paramount’s global consumer products, experiences, and brand value, with opportunities spanning fashion, design, food, hospitality, music, and experiential. This is a highly relationship-driven, culturally fluent, editorially minded role for an executive who understands both the fashion industry and entertainment—and can credibly operate at the intersection of the two. The role is focused on selective, strategic, fashion-forward and culturally meaningful partnerships that elevate Paramount’s creative reputation and generate earned reach and strategic business value. Softlines licensing, retailer/category management, style guide production, and high-volume licensee administration are outside the scope of this role and sit within other areas of the organization. The ideal partnerships may be fashion, design, food, hospitality, or experience-led, but all should share a common standard: taste, cultural credibility, creative integrity, strategic intent, and meaningful impact.   Responsibilities:

Build Paramount’s Cultural Partnership Platform

Develop and lead a high-profile cultural partnership strategy across Paramount’s iconic catalog and current/upcoming slate

Create selective, high-taste partnerships that generate earned media, cultural relevance, and long-term brand value

Cross-Functional & External Leadership

Strong creative instincts combined with commercial sophistication
