Run the 'Innovation' portfolio of projects from inception thru execution. Support your peers as a capability by providing UX standards, tools, and staff. Challenge conventional thinking and bring the best the internet has to offer to modernize WMG.

• Stay on top of the competitive landscape and general internet trends
• Lead a team of talented Product Managers, UX Designers, Visual Designers and QA engineers
• Set the standards for product management, UX, style guides, and QA
• Elevate and evangelize the value of UX and modern design thinking across the organization
• Solve real business problems

Rockstar candidates will be able to:

• 5+ years leading design teams in an agency environment
• 5+ years leading design teams on the client-side
• 5+ years in a leadership role
• Knowledge of technical architecture concepts and approaches
• Knowledge of software development methodologies and the best ways to maximize the design process within them
• Experience designing and delivering complex applications
• Rationalize the user experience across the Warner application landscape

It would be music to our ears if you also had:
• Experience designing experiences for high-touch, exclusive users in the media or entertainment industries

• Rally a team around a united vision
