• Exceptional organisational skills, with meticulous attention to detail and the ability to effectively manage multiple projects, deadlines, and priorities simultaneously.
• Experience in social and influencer management, preferably including ambassador groups or advocacy programmes, alongside a broader understanding of digital marketing, paid media, and campaign delivery.
• Experience with influencer management tools such as Traackr is preferred.

What You’ll Bring:

• A meticulous approach to your work, with a strong focus on quality and accuracy, and a willingness to take ownership of delivery and outcomes.
• A proactive approach to challenges, anticipating potential issues, taking initiative, and identifying practical and effective solutions.
• Clear and effective communication, particularly when translating client needs into internal briefs, with the confidence to ask questions, challenge when needed, and make informed decisions with clients and senior stakeholders.
• A collaborative approach to building strong relationships and trust with clients and internal teams, working effectively across creative, media, production, and influencer teams.
• The ability to remain composed under pressure, adapt to changing priorities and tight deadlines, and respond constructively to setbacks and challenging feedback.

Benefits:

• Flexible schedule, hybrid work, and the opportunity to work up to 3 weeks a year from any SAMY office around the world.
• Celebrate your birthday with a day off, plus company holidays on December 24th and 31st to recharge.
