COMPANY DESCRIPTION
At Beyond Meat, we started with simple questions. Why do you need an animal to create meat? Why can't you build meat directly from plants? Thus, we make plant-based meats that allow families to eat more, not less, of the traditional dishes they love while feeling great about the health, sustainability, and animal welfare benefits of plant protein. Our goal is to bring exciting change to the plate-and Beyond.
We are looking for a passionate, driven, and organized Influencer Relations Manager who will be responsible for establishing, growing, and maintaining Beyond Meat's community of influencers and ambassadors. The ideal candidate is a proactive, go-getter who is excited for the opportunity to create an influencer program from the ground-up and share the positive and powerful impact of shifting to a plant-based diet including Beyond Meat while inspiring consumers to Go Beyond.
A successful candidate will also possess strong communication and interpersonal skills, be a self-starter who can work independently but also contribute to team efforts, have a creative eye for detail, and enjoy developing relationships with online contacts.
