Role

Japan is one of BeReal's most strategic markets, with a highly distinctive creator ecosystem and social media culture. This role is the local engine that connects Japanese creators with BeReal's global performance creative operations.

As an Influencer Content Associate at Voodoo, based remotely in Japan, you will play a key role in building and managing a network of Japanese influencers, creators, and actors to produce high-quality video ads for BeReal at scale. Your responsibilities will include:

• Identifying high-potential creators across Japan's social media platforms (TikTok, Instagram, X/Twitter, YouTube Shorts, LINE)

• Engaging and contracting creators, ensuring alignment with BeReal's brand, brief, and performance objectives

• Working with local directors and actors when video production requires on-the-ground oversight to ensure quality and vision are met

• Handling video editing of created content to refine produced videos

• Tracking and analyzing content performance, while building a CRM database of Japan-based creators for future collaborations

• Reporting on production outputs and performance metrics to the global team (in English), providing insights and recommendations grounded in local market context

• Collaborating closely with the global Product, User Acquisition, and Creative teams to align Japan creator content with product-specific needs and objectives

• Adapting global creative concepts to the Japanese market and flagging when local formats, codes, or platform behaviours require a different approach

• Staying up-to-date with Japan-specific social media trends and competitor strategies to continuously discover and implement top-performing concepts

• Becoming an expert in Japanese UGC and creator culture, ensuring BeReal's content stays native, relevant, and high-performing in the market
