• Work with teams such as Artist and Label Partnerships, Marketing, and Product to bring cultural context into broader workflows
• Support artist discovery through Spotify’s editorial ecosystem and help artists grow their audiences
• Maintain an impartial, professional editorial voice that represents Spotify’s role in the local music landscape
