  • Partners with clients and internal teams to translate objectives into actionable recommendations

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Hands-On Program Execution: Independently manage and execute standalone social and influencer strategy and programs, demonstrating deep expertise within each individual workstream (social, influencer, content, paid).
  • Integrated Campaign Support: Contribute to and help lead integrated marketing campaigns that combine social, content, paid, and web efforts, ensuring workstreams are connected and mutually reinforcing.
  • Client Relationship Management: Serve as a key day-to-day client contact, building trust and rapport with marketing-level stakeholders, and confidently managing client conversations, not just executing as a practitioner.
  • Client Needs & Insights: Partner with clients to understand business objectives, target audiences, and marketing challenges, translating insights into actionable social, influencer, and integrated marketing recommendations.
  • Creative & Production Collaboration: Brief and collaborate with internal content, creative, and production teams, providing clear feedback and ensuring timely, on-brand delivery of assets.
  • Team Support & Mentorship: Support senior leadership and more junior team members (including net-new managers) by providing guidance on social and influencer best practices and account management fundamentals.
  • Project Management Oversight: Help manage day-to-day workstreams, ensuring projects remain on schedule, within budget, and aligned with client expectations, including those with regulatory or approval complexities.
  • Performance Monitoring: Track and analyze campaign performance across social, influencer, and integrated efforts, providing recommendations for optimization.
  • Sector Growth Support: Support health and tech sector growth by contributing subject-matter expertise to proposals and pitches as needed.
  • Process Improvement: Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and improve efficiency across social, influencer, and integrated workstreams.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in integrated marketing, journalism, communications, public relations, or a related field.
  • Minimum of 5-7 years of progressive experience in social strategy, influencer marketing, and/or integrated marketing within an agency environment, with a demonstrated ability to run standalone programs in at least one core discipline (social or influencer).
  • Demonstrated experience working with health and/or technology clients; openness and ability to work cross-sector strongly preferred, given current business needs (deep specialization in only one sector is acceptable if paired with willingness to grow into the other).
  • Proven, hands-on experience executing social strategy and influencer marketing programs, with working knowledge of how these connect to broader integrated campaigns (content, paid, web).
  • Experience briefing and collaborating with creative (design) and production teams.
  • Ability to manage client relationships and conversations directly, beyond a purely tactical or practitioner-level role.
  • Experience managing or mentoring junior team members is a plus.
  • Solid understanding of marketing analytics and ability to interpret data to inform recommendations.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams and priorities simultaneously.
  • A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with a strong commitment to client success.

Preferred

  • Experience managing or mentoring junior team members is a plus.
