Strategist, Influencer

About the Client Partnerships Team

The Client Partnership team leads the creator strategy and client servicing relationship through the lifecycle of an account at Collectively–ensuring our partnership with clients is successful, industry-leading and directly in support of our clients’ creator marketing ambitions.

This team is focused on cultivating and growing successful relationships with account stakeholders in our client community through best-in-class work and services–delivering strategic influencer marketing proposals/RFPs, industry-leading thought partnership and ongoing strategic direction throughout the lifecycle of our agency/client partnership to support brands in becoming more effective, innovative creator-centric marketers.

About the Opportunity

We're looking for a Strategist to join our newly formed Creative & Strategy Development (CSD) function — an inter-team force built to elevate Collectively's most competitive, high-stakes, and strategically ambitious work.

As a core member of CSD, you'll help shape the thinking behind our biggest opportunities: competitive RFPs, big-bet pitches, multi-platform campaigns, and high-visibility client initiatives. You'll bring an understanding of audience behavior, platform culture, and creator ecosystems to build strategic foundations that unlock culturally resonant creative ideas. This role sits within a hybrid Business Development + Client Strategy team, offering a unique vantage point at the intersection of creative thinking, strategic insight, and growth-driving business impact.

CSD partners closely with Creative, Business Development, Client Partnerships, and Analytics to bring clarity, craft, and cultural fluency to every RFP — and as the team grows, this role will help shape what "best-in-class" looks like for our strategy discipline.

What You'll Do

• Support strategy for our biggest swings — Work closely with the Strategic and Creative Development team to craft insight-driven strategies, diving into audience behaviors, cultural moments, platform specialties, and category spaces to uncover where brands can play.
• Transform research into launch pads — Go beyond data collection to find real truths and cultural tensions that become strategic springboards, translating insights into opportunities and narratives that jumpstart the work.
