Job Description

Overview Aspire.io is the world's first word-of-mouth commerce platform that leverages your brand's ambassadors, influencers, affiliates, customers, user-generated content, and social ads to accelerate marketing results across paid, owned, and earned channels. Since 2014, Aspire's industry-leading software platform, combined with our award-winning Agency Services team, has served household names such as M&M'S, Keurig, Samsung, HelloFresh, Dyson, and many other high-growth companies while paying out $100M to creators around the world. The Role As an Agency Creative Strategist , you will be the engine of our new and existing business growth. Your primary mission is to craft compelling strategies and proposals that showcase Aspire's value and win new clients. This is a high-level, client-facing role that requires a blend of creative thinking, operational expertise, and a deep understanding of the influencer marketing landscape. This role is fully remote; however, you will be expected to travel to key client pitches and industry events. What You\'ll Be Working On New Business Strategy & Proposals: Lead the development of creative and innovative strategies for prospective clients. Build and present proposals that effectively communicate how Aspire can solve their business challenges and achieve their marketing goals. Approximately 75% of your time will be dedicated to this. Strategic Upsells & Renewals: Partner with our Account Directors to support our largest and most strategically important accounts with respect to renewals and expansions. Keep our approach fresh and exciting. Approximately 25% of your time will be dedicated to this. Creator, Consumer, and Cultural Insights: Combine your understanding of the pop cultural zeitgeist with consumer and creator needs, wants, and behaviors to create exciting and effective strategies for our clients. This will rely on your deep familiarity with platforms such as TikTok, Meta, Pinterest, and YouTube. Client Communication: Serve as a strategic partner to clients, maintaining strong, long-term relationships. You will need to be an excellent communicator, capable of handling complex conversations and providing clear, actionable advice. Client-Facing & Presentations: Be the primary presenter for new business pitches and strategic reviews. You must be comfortable and confident speaking in front of clients and other stakeholders to sell your vision and expertise. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with our sales, marketing, and product teams. You will act as a bridge between these departments, using their insights to inform your strategies and ensuring a seamless workflow. Operational Acumen: While this role is focused on strategy, you must have an understanding of agency operations to build efficient and effective workflows. Your goal is to simplify processes, not complicate them. What We\'re Looking For Experience: 5+ years successful track record in the industry (i.e. at an agency or a fast-paced marketing environment). Strategic Thinking: Demonstrated ability to build creative and data-driven strategies that address client needs and win new business. Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills. You should be a confident and compelling presenter, as well as an "over-communicator" who prioritizes clarity and follow-up. Client-Facing Expertise: Experience in a client-facing role, including building relationships, managing expectations, and presenting complex information clearly. Adaptability: The ability to be curious, ask the right questions, and pivot quickly when a client's needs change. You must be resourceful and solution-oriented. Collaborative Mindset: A strong desire to work with and support cross-functional teams. You must be able to lead and influence without direct authority. Operational Acumen: Familiarity with project management tools and a knack for creating efficient workflows. The ability to use data to inform decisions and measure success is a must.
