About the role
- Trading Cards are foundational to StockX - not just as products, but as artifacts of fandom, nostalgia, speculation, and identity.
- To do this well, we need category leaders who don't just understand collectibles - they live inside them.

- Partner with Category Marketing to design culturally authentic activations
- Work closely with Account and Partnerships Managers to scale seller acquisition and support
- Collaborate with Product and Engineering to shape features and tools that matter to collectors (e.g., condition transparency, grading integrations, pricing insights, population data visibility)
- Build the Playbook
