Account Lead – Influencer Campaign Management | Sports & Entertainment

US Remote | EST Hours | Permanent

$120,000 to $130,000

I’m working with a fast-growing influencer marketing technology business that’s recently won a major US sports and betting account.

They’re looking for someone to lead the campaign delivery function on this account, managing two Campaign Managers and taking ownership of how high-volume creator campaigns are executed.

This is very much a campaign management role.

You’ll need to have spent multiple years personally delivering influencer campaigns, ideally within an agency environment, and now be at a stage where you’re leading others while remaining close to the day-to-day work.

The campaigns are fast-moving, often tied to NFL, NBA and other major US sporting events, with potentially hundreds of creators involved across multiple briefs.

What you’ll actually be doing

• Leading creator campaigns from initial brief through casting, outreach, contracting, content approvals, launch and reporting.
• Overseeing high volumes of creators and simultaneous campaigns, ensuring everything goes live on time.
• Managing campaign budgets, negotiating creator fees and tracking performance against CPV, CPM and profitability targets.
• Making sure all creator content meets the relevant US sports betting regulations, platform requirements and disclosure guidelines.
• Managing and developing two Campaign Managers, reviewing their work and keeping delivery standards high.
• Working directly with senior client stakeholders to manage timelines, resolve issues and keep campaigns running smoothly.
• Using influencer marketing platforms and AI tools to improve campaign workflows, reporting and efficiency.

What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally bring 5+ years of hands-on influencer campaign management experience, with direct exposure to US sportsbooks, DFS/fantasy brands or major sports leagues.

You should be able to talk confidently about the campaigns you’ve personally delivered: how many creators were involved, the budgets you managed, the results you achieved and how you improved performance.

Experience managing $1m–$2m+ programmes, leading delivery teams and using platforms such as CreatorIQ, GRIN or Modash will be particularly relevant.

You’ll also need a practical understanding of sports betting marketing compliance, plus experience using AI tools to build or improve workflows rather than simply generate content.

If your background is in hands-on sports influencer campaign delivery and you’re ready for that next step, I’d be keen to speak.
