Do you catch yourself quoting TikToks more often than you'd comfortably admit? Do you see great brand + creator collabs and think "I wish I had thought of that..." ? Our team of creator marketing experts is growing, and we're looking for people who not only understand the social media landscape but live and breathe on the cutting edge of it.

WHO WE ARE

Open Influence is a global, award-winning creator marketing company, providing premium, end-to-end creator marketing solutions. Since 2013, we have been pioneering the creator economy, executing social-first strategies for over 1,500 top brands-including Uber, Subaru, Coca-Cola, AT&T, and Disney. As a platform-agnostic and talent-agnostic partner, we connect brands with the right creators, on the right channels, to drive measurable impact and business growth. From kickoff to merchandising performance, the campaigns are powered by our best-in-class creative team. That's where you come in...

We won't bury the lead: success in this role requires a creative "free-range" mindset, paired with a deep understanding of the ever-evolving world of creators and social media. We combine our passion for culture with an infectious commitment to driving meaningful results for our clients. Sure, every agency will have a 'work hard, play hard' environment. Our approach is: work smarter, play better.

A job description won't do Open Influence's company culture justice, but we'll give you a snapshot in a few bullets.

We understand that culture starts at the top. Our management team maintains an 'open door' policy at all times and actively creates safe, inclusive spaces for connection, sharing, and strategizing.
We recognize and celebrate each other's wins, and pick each other up when we stumble (which, spoiler alert: we all do).
We aren't afraid to look in the mirror. We continually learn, grow, and improve what we do and how we do it.
Plus, a bunch of other perks like a professional development stipend, Summer (+ 'No Meeting') Fridays, phone bill reimbursement, full benefits, and more.
