We’d Love If You Also Have These:

• Strong understanding of earned, influencer, and social media: particularly confident in influencer and social media, with knowledge of how they integrate within broader marketing strategies
• Knowledge of the social and digital landscape: including relevant platforms and cultural trends
• Experience in running global campaigns: from an owned, earned, and paid perspective, ideally across multiple markets
• Campaign and project management: ability to manage timelines, budgets, resources, and stakeholders across multiple projects simultaneously
• Creative thinking and storytelling: able to spot compelling angles, generate culturally relevant ideas and contribute to creative campaign ideas
• Relationship-building: skilled in developing strong relationships with clients, media, creators and internal teams; a natural collaborator and communicator
• Cultural curiosity: in tune with trends, conversations, and moments shaping sport, fashion, music, and lifestyle, with an ability to translate these into impactful work
• A strong new business acumen with a proven track record of increasing client spend and identifying growth opportunities
• Strong leadership and team management skills, with the ability to inspire and nurture a team and foster a positive agency culture
• Analytical mindset and experience: can report campaign results clearly and meaningfully
