    As an Account Director, Influencer and Social/Digital, you're an experienced leader with agency chops who is passionate about the influencer and creator landscape. You're an entrepreneurial thinker who is excited to take the lead and continue to shape the agency's influencer practice. You've got your eye on the ever-evolving creator and social/digital space: always on top of the latest trends, platform changes (or challenges), and thinking constantly about the opportunities or risks for the agency and its clients.

    In this position, you inspire and guide your direct reports and cross-functional teams to shake things up, deliver bold creative ideas, test and learn, build deep client relationships and execute with excellence.

    In this role, you'll own key client relationships. You're skilled at client service, building lasting relationships with key senior client stakeholders to unlock new opportunities based on your influence and trust. You partner with clients to relentlessly pursue program goals with a focus on identifying and leveraging new trends, forging excellent creator-brand partnerships and leading high-performance teams to execute flawlessly. You know the power of strong measurement frameworks and double down on proving success with metrics that matter to your clients. An essential ingredient of your success is your organization and ability to keep multiple clients, programs and team members on track to exceed objectives.
