We Are Different is hiring a Social & Influencer Account Director.
Not just to lead campaigns. To shape culture through them.
We're an independent, earned-first creative agency building culturally sharp ideas for brands like FUJIFILM, Jack Daniel's, Spotify and more.
Fresh off our Agency of the Year win, we're looking for a Social & Influencer Account Director to lead ambitious, social-first work that earns attention in culture. Someone who understands how ideas travel across platforms, creators and communities – and how to turn social into a true strategic lever for brands.
This is a role for someone equally comfortable leading clients, mentoring teams, shaping strategy and spotting the cultural opportunities others miss.
What you'll be doing:
Leading the development and delivery of social-first and influencer-led campaigns
Providing senior strategic counsel to clients across social, creators and culture
Driving platform-native ideas that people genuinely want to engage with and share
Leading influencer strategy, creator partnerships and talent management across campaigns
Overseeing content direction across TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, Reddit and more
Managing workflows, timelines and team resourcing across accounts
Mentoring and developing junior team members
What we're looking for:
6+ years experience across social, influencer or integrated communications (agency preferred)
Strong strategic understanding of social platforms, creator ecosystems and digital culture




Experience leading clients and presenting strategic and creative recommendations with confidence
Experience leading social / influencer production from brief through to content deliverables
Experience with both organic social and paid amplification (working with paid media agencies)
Excellent writing and creative thinking skills – from concepts to campaign narratives
A strong understanding of what makes branded content feel native, relevant and culturally resonant
Someone proactive, organised and calm under pressure
What you'll get:
The opportunity to lead culturally relevant, award-winning campaigns for leading brands
A genuinely cooperative independent agency environment with direct access to senior leadership
Real influence over the work, ideas and direction of campaigns
Genuine career growth opportunities within one of Australia's fastest-growing independent agencies
