Account Manager (Influencer Marketing)

The Shelf Influencer Marketing Agency

1d•Remote

About The Position

We're looking for an Account Manager to own influencer marketing campaigns end-to-end — from influencer outreach and contract negotiation through content approvals and final reporting. At this level you're the day-to-day engine of your campaigns: mostly independent, running a higher volume of mid-tier programs with a manager available for the trickier calls. We don't micromanage. You'll plan your own days, manage your own deadlines, and bring problems to your manager with a proposed solution attached. Over your first 90 days, manager involvement narrows to only the truly complex or high-level matters.

Requirements

4-5+ years of experience in influencer or digital marketing (agency background preferred)
Proven experience running influencer campaigns end-to-end across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube
Comfortable leading standard client calls and owning day-to-day client communication
Working knowledge of influencer contracts and negotiation fundamentals
Strong project management: workbacks, budgets, and multiple simultaneous campaigns
Proficiency with influencer management tools (CreatorIQ, Modash, Upfluence, or equivalent)
Proficient in AI tools and comfortable applying them daily to streamline research, drafting, and reporting
Experienced with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides), Microsoft Word, and project management tools such as Asana

Responsibilities

Lead end-to-end delivery of multi-platform influencer campaigns: outreach, negotiation (with rate approvals), contracting, briefing, content review, and reporting
Build contracts independently with a working command of basic redlines
Write campaign briefs that need no more than two rounds of feedback, with research done before you start
Own creation and daily tracking of workback schedules, client facing influencer trackers and internal budget tracking
Assemble complete campaign reports and present them, with your manager adding depth on client questions
Own day-to-day client relationships and run all standard weekly client calls with a warm, confident presence
Write clear weekly client updates, prep agendas, and send follow-ups with action items for both client and internal teams
Recognize when a client's request isn't the best route — buy time gracefully, build a recommendation with your manager, and bring it back to the client
Make a daily to-do list and follow up on outstanding items — no external reminders needed
Bring your manager problems with solutions attached; troubleshoot with documented processes before escalating
Flag fires immediately with 'I'm working through this' and a plan — never a surprise
Spot mid-campaign optimization opportunities and propose solutions
Ask for help with prioritization before you're overloaded — we do not want silent overtime
Work directly with Paid Media, Market Insights, Creative, and Client Partner teams to ensure seamless cross-functional collaboration and timely execution
Proactively manage timelines, dependencies, and deliverables across teams to keep programs on track, ensure the goals outlined in the SOW are met or exceeded, and consistently communicate the latest client, influencer, and campaign updates to all relevant stakeholders
