Launched in Fall 2025, Dhar Mann Studios’ Brand Partnerships division has seen an explosive rise, executing industry-shaping work for The NFL, Adobe, Netflix, and GAP. From managing a billion-person reach for Adobe to breaking engagement records for the NFL, we have established ourselves as the premier destination for high-impact storytelling.

BIG PICTURE:

Dhar Mann Studios is seeking a Head of Branded Integrations to build and scale a new revenue division connecting world-class brands with one of the largest scripted digital audiences in the world. Dhar Mann Studio has proven it can attract major brands now we need to scale and systematize. This is a ground-floor leadership role for a hands-on business builder who can take an early-stage branded integrations business and grow it into a tens-of-millions-of-dollars annual revenue engine.

The ideal candidate has deep senior-level relationships with brands, CMOs, agencies, and strategic partners; a proven track record closing seven figure partnerships; strong commercial instincts; and the operating discipline to build the systems, tools, products, pricing, workflows, and team required to make this business repeatable and scalable.

This role requires strong peer leadership. You will need to influence teams that do not report to you by building trust, creating clarity, and following through.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
