About the job

This independent agency is scaling fast and making a serious creative impact. Their social, influencer, and content offering launched less than a year ago and is already making waves – from always-on social for major consumer brands, to culturally sharp campaigns that blend influencer, paid, and earned.

Now looking for their third social hire in six months, this role has serious scope – with high-profile retained clients, exciting new project wins, and a team that’s built to support. The Social Lead will work closely with agency leadership and the PR teams to shape strategic and creative responses, elevate campaign delivery, and help drive continued growth.

Some of your core duties may include:

• Lead and grow a high-performing social and influencer team, currently including an Account Manager and Coordinator
• Be the strategic lead across a mix of retained and project work for major consumer and lifestyle brands
• Shape creative and strategic responses to briefs – bringing ideas that work across social, influencer, paid, and earned
• Work closely with client leads and creative to develop bold, culturally resonant work
• Partner with agency leadership to unlock new opportunities across existing and new clients
• Mentor junior talent and help shape the future structure and capability of the division
• Be hands-on in delivery where needed, while staying focused on strategic and creative leadership

About you 

This role would suit someone ready to take ownership of a growing division – someone who gets how social and influencer fit into the bigger picture, and who thrives in an environment where they can shape what comes next.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is an existing social, content, or influencer Senior Account Director, or a seasoned Account Director ready for the step up, coming from an agency environment
  
• Is confident leading clients and teams, particularly in fast-paced, high-impact environments
  
• Has a strategic mindset but is happy to roll up sleeves to get work over the line
  
• Can demonstrate experience leading campaign development across social, influencer, paid, and earned
  
• Is culturally curious and understands how to tap into trends, behaviours, and platforms
  
• Brings a collaborative, team-first approach – with experience mentoring or growing junior talent
  
• Is excited by the chance to shape something growing, not just run a playbook
