WHO WE ARE
We are Born Social, a social-first creative agency that brings brand building into the social era. We have a track record of delivering transformation for iconic brands like Guinness, Ford, and Barclays, led by our team of social natives and brand experts, underpinned by technology.

Backed by the strength of a brilliant business that's proudly B-Corp certified, we're consistently recognized as one of the best places to work.

What you'll be doing

• Creator Sourcing & Vetting: Source and vet creators for brand partnerships, ensuring their performance, audience demographics, and personality align with campaign objectives and brand strategy.

• Creator Briefing & Campaign Support: Develop clear and inspiring briefs for creators, helping translate brand direction into content opportunities that feel authentic and effective on social.

• Creator Communications & Campaign Management: Manage communication with creators and talent agencies from the beginning of a partnership through to delivery, ensuring deadlines are met and relationships are nurtured throughout the process.

• Content Management & Scheduling: Work closely with internal teams to review creator content, manage feedback and edits, and ensure campaigns land at the right time for maximum impact.

• Campaign Reporting: Track creator performance, keep reporting tools up to date, and draw out learnings and insights to inform campaign reporting and future recommendations.

Who we're looking for

• Proven experience delivering creator-led campaigns and working with creators and their representatives, ideally from an agency environment.

• Strong understanding of the current creator landscape, social media trends, and how brands can show up effectively across platforms.

• Comfortable working with a wide range of people, from creators to internal teams, and able to handle fast-moving conversations with confidence and clarity.

• Able to manage multiple moving parts, deadlines, approvals, and stakeholders across creator campaigns in a fast-paced social environment.

• Passionate about brands, social media, and the way digital culture evolves — with a natural curiosity for what’s next.

NO GRIT NO PEARL

No Grit No Pearl is our creative mantra – a single-minded statement of intent that defines how we get to great work and the standard we hold ourselves to.  Because we believe the best work isn't formed instantly, they're shaped through commitment, care, and perseverance. Grit isn’t about grind - it’s about staying curious, pushing ideas, and appreciating the process to reach the Pearl - work we’re proud of, created to the highest standard that makes a lasting impact.

VALUES

Our values aim to pinpoint the magic ingredients for us at our best. We look for people who share our values and can add to our culture. 

️ See Challenge as Opportunity... is about our attitude and to be very clear, this is not a value of optimism, nor is it about loving every challenge.

️ Say It Simply... is how we communicate. Think of the basic rules of communication - honest, clear, confident.

️ Do What You Say... is the crux of our reputation and longevity. When you join Born Social, our trust is fully given. It is yours to lose. 

️ Make Each Other Better... is about our culture of collaboration and commitment to development. We are only as good as the people around us so we all take responsibility for developing each other, as well as ourselves.

️ Consciously Contribute...is bigger than all the others.  It ensures we grow right. It broadens our focus beyond Born Social and cements our commitment to doing what’s just, not what’s easy or immediately self-serving.
