Overview of the job

Reporting directly to the Global CMO, you will lead a multi-disciplinary marketing team and own five core pillars that together shape how Influencer is perceived externally, by clients, platforms, creators, media, and the broader industry. You will be a builder and a strategist: someone who can set direction, shape narrative, and get things done.

This role sits at the intersection of brand, commercial, and technology, and you'll be expected to bring those three together seamlessly, ensuring our marketing output is as impressive as the work we do for our clients.

Set the strategy and tone for Influencer's owned social channels ensuring our presence across LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and beyond reflects who we are: creator-first, data-driven, and always-on culture. You'll hold the bar high for quality and consistency.

• Build and oversee a social content strategy that builds brand equity and drives engagement
• Ensure our social output actively supports commercial objectives and partner relationships
• Own the cadence, voice, and evolution of our channels as we scale globally

• Develop and execute co-marketing initiatives with platform partners
• Ensure Influencer's partner relationships are actively reflected in our external marketing
• Identify new partnership opportunities that extend our reach and reinforce our positioning

Brand
