Job description

About the Role :

We're looking for a Senior Manager – Influencer Marketing to lead our Planning Vertical , which focuses on influencer scouting and campaign planning. The ideal candidate should have deep knowledge of the influencer ecosystem, a sharp eye for talent, and the ability to build and lead a high-performing team that identifies, curates, and aligns the right creators with brand objectives.

This role is both strategic and operational — driving influencer sourcing frameworks, ensuring quality and relevance, and collaborating cross-functionally to deliver best-in-class influencer marketing campaigns.

Key Responsibilities :

1. Leadership & Team Management :

  • Lead and manage the Planning (Influencer Scouting) team , ensuring efficient and high-quality output.
  • Train and mentor team members on scouting processes, influencer evaluation, and campaign planning.
  • Create performance metrics and evaluation systems for the scouting team.
  • Build scalable processes to manage large volumes of influencer data and collaborations.

2. Influencer Scouting & Shortlisting :

  • Oversee the end-to-end influencer scouting process — from understanding briefs to shortlisting the right creators based on campaign objectives, audience demographics, and brand tonality.
  • Develop data-driven frameworks for evaluating influencers (reach, engagement, audience quality, authenticity, and relevance).
  • Ensure strong database management and categorization across platforms (Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, etc.).
  • Maintain an updated network of influencers across categories (fashion, lifestyle, tech, food, fitness, etc.).
  • 3. Campaign Planning & Strategy Collaboration :

  • Partner closely with the Strategy and Client Servicing teams to interpret brand briefs and translate them into actionable influencer plans.
  • Contribute to strategic brainstorming for campaign direction, creative ideas, and influencer mix.
  • Work closely with the Pricing and Operations teams to align influencer selections with budgets, deliverables, and timelines.
  • 4. Process Optimization & Innovation :

  • Standardize scouting templates, evaluation scorecards, and briefing formats.
  • Implement automation tools or tech solutions to streamline influencer search and analytics.
  • Continuously update internal benchmarks and market trends to keep the scouting vertical ahead of industry standards.
  • Ensure data accuracy, hygiene, and consistency across internal influencer management systems.
  • 5. Cross-functional Collaboration :

  • Act as the primary bridge between strategy, pricing, and operations teams to ensure seamless campaign execution.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to develop insights and reports on influencer performance and campaign effectiveness.
  • Provide inputs on creator partnerships, emerging platforms, and influencer trends to inform future strategies.
  • Requirements :

  • Experience : 5–8 years in influencer marketing, preferably in a planning or talent scouting leadership role.
  • Industry Knowledge : Deep understanding of the influencer ecosystem, social media trends, and content formats across major platforms.
  • Team Leadership : Proven experience managing and scaling a scouting / planning team.
  • Analytical Skills : Strong data-driven mindset; ability to evaluate creators based on quantitative and qualitative metrics.
  • Communication : Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to present and defend influencer choices effectively.
  • Tools : Proficiency with influencer analytics and scouting tools (e.g., Qoruz, Winkl, CreatorIQ, etc.) and Excel / Google Sheets.
  • Skills Required
