Account Manager

New York City

Are your TikTok FYP recommendations suspiciously accurate? Do your friends rely on you to find the best restaurants, coordinate the trip itineraries, and find the latest trends? We're looking for someone who's equal parts trend-obsessed and detail-oriented to join our growing influencer marketing team.

Open Influence is a global, award-winning creator marketing company, providing premium, end-to-end creator marketing solutions. Since 2013, we have been pioneering the creator economy, executing social-first strategies for over 1,500 top brands—including Universal, Spotify, Google, FOX, Target, and more! As a platform-agnostic and talent-agnostic partner, we connect brands with the right creators, on the right channels, to drive measurable impact and business growth.

We won't bury the lead: success in this role requires a creative "free-range" mindset, paired with immaculate project management skills and attention to the finer details. We combine our passion for culture with an infectious commitment to driving meaningful results for our clients. Sure, every agency will have a 'work hard, play harder' environment. Our approach is: work smarter, play better. With a 92% renewal rate, brands don't just work with us—they stay with us.

A job description won't do Open Influence's company culture justice, but we'll give you a snapshot in a few bullets.

• We understand that culture starts at the top. Our management team has an ''open door' policy at all times, and actively creates safe, inclusive spaces to connect, share, and strategize.
• We recognize and celebrate each other's wins, and pick each other up when we stumble (which, spoiler alert: we all do).
• We aren't afraid to look in the mirror. We continually learn, grow, and improve what we do and how we do it.
• Dog-friendly offices. No explanation needed.
• Plus, a bunch of other perks like Summer (+ 'No Meeting') Fridays, phone bill reimbursement, full benefits and more.

At Open Influence, our mission is to help brands create alongside extraordinary human beings. As an Account Manager, your mission is to facilitate the meaningful partnership between these brands and creators.

You'll be responsible for delivering superior client service for various Open Influence clients. You'll use your deep understanding of influencer marketing strategy to lead the execution of influencer campaigns, from kickoff to reporting. You will act as a liaison between internal departments, brands, and influencers to ensure campaign strategy is successfully executed, manage talent fulfillment of campaign deliverables, and analyze campaign KPIs to optimize based on key learnings.

• Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for key clients, while mentoring, educating, and developing strategies to meet brand business objectives

• Address daily client needs and requests related to the campaign, or other ancillary asks, in a timely strategy-oriented manner
• Identify trends and develop performance insights, resulting in meaningful recommendations and strategies.
• Actively counseling clients by providing strategic market feedback and participating in product development with the Open Influence team
• Support with pre-sale planning, working closely with cross-functional teams (sales and creative) to ensure strategy aligns with client goals

Required Skills and Qualifications:

• Minimum 3-4 years relevant client-facing, agency experience
• Experience in building and optimizing digital and social media plans, particularly focused on influencer marketing
