The DTC (Direct To Consumer) Strategy & Partnerships Team is responsible for managing key Verizon strategic relationships that serve to connect customers with the content and experiences they love on the nation’s best network.
We oversee partnerships, source opportunities and negotiate with a broad range of entities, including major streamers, tech companies, sports leagues, vMVPDs, digital subscription services and gaming platforms. Through our myPlan and myHome perks, alongside our +play subscription marketplace, Verizon is one of the largest direct-to-consumer platform in the U.S., and our team sits at the center as the owner of those relationships and the driver of strategic decision-making around what comes next for Verizon in DTC partnerships.
Verizon is seeking a motivated, critical thinker, who is ready to be a leader in determining the company’s partnership strategy. This person should have the organizational skills and operational expertise necessary to manage major strategic partnerships, whilst also demonstrating expert communication skills and a proven ability to develop durable and effective relationships with partners and colleagues alike. They should also have a deep understanding of industry trends and consumer behaviors across the various verticals and individual services that fall under the team’s purview, and be able to apply that knowledge in ways that move Verizon’s DTC distribution strategies forward.

• Be the first line of support in the management of marquee content partnerships with Netflix, Warner Brothers Discovery, YouTube/Google, TelevisaUnivision and others.
• Meticulously execute on all partnership operational elements, including troubleshooting, performance reporting and QBRs.
• Aligning internal stakeholders to present a shared vision to external partners.
