Associate Social Media & Influencer Marketing Strategist

Comparable titles: Social Media & Influencer Manager, Social Media & Influencer Specialist, Social Media & Influencer Lead, Social Media Account Manager

Show me the job description that changed everything.

I’ll go first:

Frameworks. Content pillars. Pitch decks. Ed Cals. Listening tools. Campaign roadmaps. Mentorship on the job. A collaborative team to execute. Growth opportunities.. A boss that will never make you come to the office.

Are we speaking your language? Then it’s time we met. 👋

Sculpt is a social media agency for B2B brands. As an Associate Strategist, you’ll support strategic plans and tactics for established, “blue-check” clients, and play an active role in growing our influencer/creator marketing work.

Let’s get something out of the way: No, this is not a do-it-all social media manager role. Yes, we value those who have filled that role in the past. No, this is not an account manager role. Yes, we trust you to present to clients directly.

You will support our team with a full-cycle of strategy work, from the evaluation and audits of client social programs and platforms, to the development of foundational social media strategies, and the guidance of ongoing implementation.

(Or, as you’ll later tell your family, “I recommend memes to management.”)

A bit on us: Sculpt helps global B2B brands use social media to reach their customers, inspire their advocates, and close more deals.

A bit on you: “A strategic, curious, detailed, analytical, collaborative, doer…that’s very much online” — as described by coworkers. You can rattle off ten brands we should be following, and none of them would be Wendy’s. You’re endlessly curious about social media platforms, buyer behavior, and how brands grow with modern marketing. You’re a hoarder of great ideas, and a trier of new things. You are known for going deep down Reddit rabbit holes for the sake of audience clarity. You will give a 10-minute seminar on why the future of search is TikTok to anyone who will listen.

A bit on the role: You will support the social media strategy development for select clients, and support influencer marketing tactics for active campaigns. But you won’t be flying solo. You’ll be working closely with a strategist, client-facing engagement managers, copywriters, graphic designers, and media specialists to ensure flawless execution.

Here’s what you’ll be up to:

• Support the development of social media strategy presentations and campaign plans to achieve marketing targets
• Provide research support for cross-channel marketing strategies and content/creative briefs for TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Reddit, Twitch, LinkedIn (and whatever’s next—remember Clubhouse?)
• Conduct industry, social listening, and audience research to inform client strategies
• Help analyze reporting data to determine how to improve underperforming social media campaigns and propose new content ideas and/or campaigns based off key learnings
• Participate in ideation jams with engagement managers, community managers, paid and creative teams
• Be a champion for better work and ideas aligned to trends, high-performing channel formats, KPIs, and whatever Chipotle just did on TikTok (kidding, kind of)
• Assist our Strategist in managing the daily execution of influencer and advocate campaign marketing lifecycle, such as research, outreach, asset management and reporting.
• Help improve processes and assist with internal playbooks

About your Team: The Strategy team works across our portfolio of clients, and covers all things Strategy and Influencer Marketing enablement. You will collaborate most with your Strategist, Influencer Marketing Specialists and Head of Strategy. You’re gonna love ‘em.

About your Skills and Experience:

• At least 3 years of experience within social media
• Experience working with a large-scale and/or technical/B2B brand in a social media capacity

• You have experience compiling social listening data and reviewing competitors’ social media activities to inform social strategies
• You are comfortable presenting your work, pitch ideas, and discuss plans with your internal team and clients
