About the Role
1. Position Overview
- Influencer Marketing Campaigns: Oversee end-to-end campaign execution—from influencer outreach and contract negotiation to final reporting.
- AI-Enhanced Workflow: Use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) to proofread, generate briefs, and streamline repetitive tasks.
- High Standards of Independence: We don’t micromanage. You’ll need excellent time management, attention to detail, and the ability to meet deadlines consistently.
Note: We are hiring at two levels (AM3 or AM4). You will indicate which level you’re applying for based on your experience and comfort handling complex campaigns.
2. Core Responsibilities
Campaign Execution
- Draft and proofread contracts, client briefs, and outreach emails (AI is a support, not a substitute).
- Regularly check for accuracy and clarity before sending final deliverables.
Client & Influencer Communication
- Respond to 100% of emails within 24 hours.
- Provide clients with updates via agendas, weekly summaries, and thorough follow-ups.
Attention to Detail & Quality Control
- Double-check all briefs, content approvals, and reports for errors, data inaccuracies, or missing information.
Timeliness & Independence
- Keep an organized to-do list; proactively offer solutions for potential issues.
- Manage deadlines without external reminders.
AI Adoption & Process Improvements
- Embrace new AI tools and share successful prompts with the team.
- Continuously look for ways to refine SOPs and enhance campaign outcomes.
Influencer Relationship Management
- Build strong, trust-based relationships with influencers, ensuring brand alignment.
- Frequently monitor influencer content for quality, brand adherence, and performance.
- Collaborate on strategy refinements, provide feedback, and communicate updates or pivots to clients.
3. Two Levels of Expertise: AM3 vs. AM4
While the core responsibilities remain the same, the expected degree of autonomy and complexity differs:
AM3 (Mid-Level)
- Experience: 2–3+ years in influencer or digital marketing.
- Guidance: Mostly independent but may seek feedback on trickier tasks or complex client demands.
- Time & Workload: Comfortable handling multiple mid-tier campaigns, leveraging AI to minimize manual tasks.
- Problem-Solving: Resolves most routine challenges independently; escalates major issues with proposed solutions.
- Growth Path: Over 90 days, you’ll reduce manager involvement to only the truly complex or high-level matters.
AM4 (Senior)
- Experience: 4–5+ years running high-budget, complex campaigns with minimal supervision.
- Autonomy: Operates almost entirely independently; manager involvement is mostly for strategic alignment.
- Advanced Client Management: Navigates demanding client expectations, proposes strategic pivots, and manages large-budget accounts.
- Mentorship: Coaches AM3s and junior team members on campaign execution and advanced AI strategies.
- Strategy & Upsell: Anticipates fires before they escalate, offers multi-layered strategies, and seeks growth opportunities for the agency.
4. Potential Challenges & Expectations
- High-Volume, Fast-Moving Projects: Multiple simultaneous campaigns with tight deadlines.
- Demanding Clients & Influencers: Large budgets, unique contract terms, and one-off requests are common.
- Self-Sufficiency:
- AM3: Some guidance is normal early on but you’re not new to the basics.
- AM4: Essentially the final authority on day-to-day tasks, escalating only for major issues.
5. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
Communication
- 100% email response rate within 24 hours.
- AI-assisted proofreading that minimizes errors.
- Clarity and concise organization in decks and reports.
Quality & Accuracy of Deliverables
- Error-free briefs, contracts, and reports.
Timeliness & Deadlines
- Manage influencer onboarding, approvals, and final reporting without missing milestones.
Manager Oversight
- AM3: Diminishing check-ins as competence is proven.
- AM4: Minimal or no day-to-day supervision.
6. Culture & Attitude
- No Micromanagement: We value self-driven individuals.
- Collaboration: Work closely with creative, paid media, and cross-functional teams to ensure cohesive campaign strategies.
- Accountability: Own your tasks and mistakes; proactively flag potential issues.
- Adaptability: Be eager to learn and experiment with emerging AI tools.
