Director, Emerging Platforms & Content Strategy

The U.S. Consumer Marketing team (USCM) is part of the U.S. Consumer Services Group and is responsible for making Membership essential by creating and delivering world-class marketing for our differentiated products and services that drives demand and inspires engaged Card Members across the customer lifecycle.

The Prospect, Partner & Customer Growth (PPCG) team delivers member-centric performance marketing that fuels this success by gaining share of premium demand, deepening Card Member engagement, and marketing premium partnerships and products that deliver differentiated membership experiences.

As consumer discovery rapidly evolves, the way customers find, evaluate and choose products is changing. AI-powered search, LLMs, agentic experiences, content ecosystems and emerging platforms are reshaping the customer journey and creating new opportunities to influence consideration and drive acquisition.

The Director, Emerging Platforms & Content Strategy will build Amex’s next content-led acquisition engine—using customer insight and AI to determine what content we need, transform how we create and improve it, and activate it across owned and third-party ecosystems to help more prospects understand, value and choose Amex.

This role will set the strategic agenda, build new capabilities and connect efforts across the Prospect ecosystem to accelerate growth. This is an ideal opportunity for a transformational marketing leader who thrives in ambiguity, builds new capabilities from the ground up and is excited to shape the future of performance marketing.
