spaces (Threads, BlueSky, TikTok Shop).
● Write inspiring, single‑minded creative briefs that give designers, creative teams, and
creators clear strategic direction and genuine creative permission.
● Oversee social listening programs to surface cultural signals, audience insights, and
trending conversations that can unlock campaign platforms and reactive moments.
● Build measurement frameworks and KPIs that connect social performance to brand and
business objectives and present those findings clearly to senior and C‑suite clients.
● Partner with client leadership to embed social thinking into integrated campaigns, brand
roadmaps, and long‑term platform strategies.
● Bring your passion for digital and social marketing to the wider agency through POVs,
thought‑starters, training, and frameworks that elevate our collective social craft.
Qualifications:
● 8+ years in social and digital strategy, with a heavy emphasis on client‑facing, agency
roles and experience across multiple brand categories.
● A proven track record of developing innovative social campaigns that generated cultural
impactConfidential - Not for Public Consumption or Distribution
● Deep fluency in platform mechanics, content performance, and audience behavior,
paired with the strategic ability to know when and why to break the playbook.
● The ability to write persuasive, story‑driven strategy decks and present creative
recommendations with confidence to senior stakeholders.
● Strong social analytics chops (Meta tools, Google Analytics, native platform data) and an
instinct for turning data into sharp, human‑centric insights.
● Relentless curiosity about people, culture, technology, and brands
