Director of Influencer Marketing

Our client, a strategic communications and marketing company, is looking to hire a Director of Influencer Marketing to focus on Tech and Corporate clients.

We’re seeking a Director, Influencer Marketing to lead strategic creator, influencer and celebrity programs for technology and corporate brands spanning hardware, software, enterprise, consumer tech and B2B ecosystems. This role is designed for a modern influence strategist who understands how credibility, authority and cultural relevance drive measurable business impact — from brand perception and product adoption to pipeline acceleration and executive visibility.

You will architect programs that translate complex products and corporate narratives into compelling, creator-led storytelling. You know how influence works differently in tech — where trust, expertise, community and long buying cycles matter — and you understand what truly moves the needle across awareness, consideration, demand generation and reputation.

This role requires both big-picture strategic thinking and hands-on tactical execution. You will collaborate across PR, digital, content, paid media and executive communications teams to build integrated programs that connect online engagement with real-world business outcomes.

Role location: This role is based in our New York, N.Y. office on a hybrid basis. XX Company staff are in office 3 days per week.
