• Take ownership of assigned areas of influencer campaigns, proactively managing tasks through to completion while keeping the Senior Influencer Manager informed of progress and flagging challenges or opportunities.
• Manage influencer outreach and talent coordination, including creator sourcing, negotiations, contracts, deliverables, usage and day‑to‑day relationship management.
• Manage campaign timelines and trackers, keeping key milestones, creator deliverables, approvals and launch dates on track.
• Review influencer content to ensure it is on‑brief, legally compliant and creatively compelling, escalating feedback and approvals where needed.
• Support campaign reporting and performance analysis, helping identify learnings and opportunities to inform future recommendations, including paid amplification and distribution opportunities.
• Support day‑to‑day client communication, helping keep influencer projects moving and ensuring key updates, timelines and deliverables are managed effectively.
• Support influencer budget tracking, campaign administration and agency processes, while helping build Coolr US’ creator network and identify relevant talent and partnership opportunities.

• Confident client‑facing presence, with the ability to build trust, lead conversations and clearly explain influencer strategy, performance and recommendations.
• Ability to manage, track and negotiate with suppliers and partners to ensure we are delivering the best work possible in an entrepreneurial manner.
• Able to handle multiple clients and prioritize your time and internal resource based on requirement.
• Strong understanding of social platforms, creator culture, internet behaviour, paid amplification and what makes influencer content actually work in‑feed.
• Excellent talent judgement, with the ability to identify creators who are not only relevant on paper, but genuinely right for the brand, audience and platform.
• Excited by the opportunity to be a part of a growing US team, shaping the function from the ground up and going the extra mile to deliver standout work.
