DEPT® is looking for a senior strategist to lead influencer thinking on client work, running creator programmes for brands across EMEA from our Budapest office.
Tasks
- Lead influencer strategy on priority client accounts across EMEA, from interrogating the brief to the plan our delivery teams work from.
- Bring creators in early, while the brand's idea can still change, so they test and shape it before it goes into production.
- Plan creator work with our Paid Social, Social, SEO and GEO, and Creative teams, so it's part of the integrated plan from day one.
- Support our growth strategist on pitches where influencer thinking decides the win.
- Feed what you learn on live accounts into the propositions we take to clients.
- Review strategy work across the three regions and coach the strategists in each hub, so the standard is the same wherever the work is done.
