Open Influence

Do you catch yourself saying “I saw this TikTok the other day…” more often than you’d comfortably admit? Are you the friend that plans the itinerary whenever there’s a trip? Our team of influencer 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.

At Open Influence, we have the privilege of working with some of the world’s top brands, such as Amazon, Disney, Coca Cola, T-Mobile, Netflix, L’Oreal. Our recipe for success brings data, innovation and creativity to every brand strategy and creator collaboration. From kickoff to merchandising performance, the campaigns are powered by our best-in-class account management team. 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 harder’ 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 has an ‘‘open door’ policy at all times, and actively creates safe, inclusive spaces to connect, share, and strategize.
• 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.
• Dog-friendly offices. No explanation needed.
• Plus, a bunch of other perks like a professional development stipend, Summer (+ ‘No Meeting’) Fridays, phone bill reimbursement, full benefits and more.
