About the role:
The US F&B Head of Marketing is entrusted with shaping and elevating CHANEL’s Brand Equity in the US, for the three strategic categories - Fragrance, Skincare and Makeup, in line with Global strategies and local market realities. This visionary leader can connect modernity with heritage, promote Brand saliency and desirability while helping drive data-informed, innovative and client-centric growth, in a marketing landscape shaped by AI, innovation and new possibilities. Our ideal candidate is attuned with the ever-changing rules of the US market and client journeys and energized by fostering deep emotional connections between the Brand, its existing and potential clients.
This position orchestrates the full marketing ecosystem with a strategic mindset, inspiring and promoting a collaborative partnership with DCX, Brand Communication and Artistic Direction teams, locally and globally. Leading both Brand Management and Trade & Retail Marketing teams, this role ensures that every expression of the brand is coherent, elevated and culturally resonant, creating ultimate client experience at every touchpoint.
What impact you can create at CHANEL:
Brand Strategy and Brand Equity Stewardship
- Champion Chanel’s brand equity, ensuring all initiatives reflect the House’s heritage, creative vision, and uncompromising standards.
- Translate global brand strategies into locally relevant, high-impact plans that reinforce CHANEL’s local leadership in luxury fragrance and beauty, while in return promoting US market and client realities towards Global teams, to ensure that these specific needs are understood and translated into product and orchestration strategies.
- Be the voice of the Brand to communicate CHANEL’s vision and support priorities to our Retailers and Market Teams, inspiring alignment and ambition.
Category Expertise Across the Three Axis
- Demonstrate deep strategic and operational mastery of Fragrance, Skincare, and Makeup, understanding category dynamics, competitive landscapes, and client evolving motivations, to orchestrate locally relevant activations and nourish Global MTP product plans.
- Guide category teams to build long-term equity while delivering short-term business performance, supervising and consolidating A&P budget by axis, facilitating prioritization and monitoring sales performance and ROI to adapt plans and investments in real time.
- Commission and interpret marketing intelligence, consumer research, competitive analysis, and trend forecasting to inform strategy. Translate customer data and market insights into articulated action plans by axis, govern implementation and measure success, with the support of the Transformation Office, Insights, Brand Comm (BC) and DCX teams.

360° Marketing Orchestration and Execution
- Conduct the orchestra, leading the end-to-end development and implementation of integrated marketing campaigns, partnering closely with Brand Communication, Digital and Client Experience, Artistic Department and Retail teams, as well as Global partners.
- Beyond campaigns, ensure – with the support of the DCX and BC teams – that we create relevant and always-on connection across touchpoints of the client’s journeys (events, digital activations, retail experiences, services…), to convey the House’s storytelling through elevated and innovative multi-channel expressions, elevating client lifetime value.
- Lead in a fluid world: operate in a composable marketing model where teams and skills reconfigure around outcomes, not just fixed roles.
Client Journey & Experience Expertise
- Bring a sophisticated understanding of modern F&B client journeys across online and offline ecosystems for each product axis.
- Partner with DCX and Retail teams to ensure that every online and offline interaction— from digital discovery, in-store experience, events or post-purchase engagement — feels seamless and reflects the House’s signature level of service.
- Create unforgettable moments: together with the Artistic and Education teams, support the Retail to deliver extraordinary in-store and event experiences, consistent with Brand’s standards.
- Leverage insights and data to anticipate the expectations of the diverse US clientele (esp younger targets) and shape meaningful, personalized experiences for launches and core product offer.

- Foster a culture of operational excellence aligned with Chanel’s image and values, where team members also feel empowered to bring “out of the box” ideas to create Brand magic and unique story-telling.
- Lead with agility and promote simplification: guide an evolving organization, where roles continuously reconfigure as AI’s impact rises. Continuously assess what to automate, augment or eliminate, focusing teams on Brand priorities and high-value work. Partner with P&O to pilot adaptive organization principles when relevant.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in Head Of Social
Frame your portfolio around measurable outcomes
U.S. employers assessing E-3 visa specialty occupation need evidence your role requires degree-level expertise. Present campaign metrics, team leadership scope, and strategic P&L impact to support both the offer letter and the LCA filing.
Target employers with existing LCA filing history
Search the DOL's public LCA disclosure data for marketing and communications roles. Employers who have filed LCAs before understand the process and are less likely to withdraw an offer over sponsorship paperwork.
Address specialty occupation in your cover letter
USCIS requires the Head of Social role to normally require a bachelor's degree in a specific field. Your cover letter should explicitly connect your communications or marketing degree to the strategic responsibilities in the job description.
Clarify visa timeline expectations before accepting an offer
E-3 consulate appointments in Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth currently book out several weeks. Negotiate a start date that accounts for LCA certification time plus your consulate wait, so you don't lose the role over a scheduling gap.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your LCA and paperwork
The LCA must be certified by the DOL before you can attend your consulate appointment. Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service handles the full process from LCA submission through consulate preparation, so no steps fall through after you accept an offer.
Verify your Australian degree meets the equivalency standard
A three-year Australian bachelor's in communications or marketing is generally accepted as equivalent to a four-year U.S. degree for E-3 purposes. Gather your official transcripts before you start interviewing so credential questions don't stall a late-stage offer.
E-3 Visa Head Of Social: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find Head of Social jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australians searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. Rather than filtering through general job boards, you can search Head of Social and broader social media leadership roles where employers are open to the E-3 process, saving significant time in the employer identification stage.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Head of Social role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the employer requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as communications, marketing, or digital media. The key test is whether the degree is a normal requirement for the role, not merely preferred. Roles where any bachelor's degree is accepted regardless of field are harder to qualify, so the job description wording matters when your employer files the LCA with the DOL.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Head of Social roles?
The E-3 has a 10,500 annual allocation that has never been fully used, so there's no lottery and no random selection. The H-1B is subject to an annual lottery where most applicants are not selected regardless of qualifications. For a Head of Social role, the E-3 means your offer can move straight to LCA filing and a consulate appointment without waiting months to learn whether you were even entered into the system.
Can I change employers while on an E-3 as a Head of Social?
Yes, but the E-3 is employer-specific. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new visa stamp if your current one has expired or will expire before you start. There's no portability provision like AC21 for H-1B holders, so plan for a four to six week transition window to accommodate the LCA certification and any consulate scheduling.
