Jan Saßmannshausen

As the Head of Creative EU, APAC and Japan, I excel in leadership and raise the quality bar for visual storytelling and social media marketing around the globe. I design and implement social media marketing strategies to amplify owned content and enable international teams to scale marketing processes accordingly. I provide creative consulting in all aspects of visual storytelling to interdisciplinary, international Amazon teams.

In the role as Amazon Stories EU Lead Video Producer, I go above and beyond to innovate on visual storytelling. I set highest standards for EU-wide media productions; coaching and mentoring international peers on visual storytelling. I innovate on social media asset creation like 360° and vertical video; optimizing CMS processes and exploring YouTube marketing and analytics tools.

As Senior Media Designer I am instrumental as a thought partner for C-Suite executives; advising international in-house consulting teams on creative concepts, visual storytelling and media formats; owning worldwide media projects with budget responsibilities and managing external specialists; leading and managing interdisciplinary in-house teams. I translate complex economic concepts into engaging, first class visual storytelling.

Crafting social media content for well-known German companies at a time when YouTube and Facebook just started in Europe.
