Toronto, Canada Edelman Full time

**Position will be at Samsung office**

Edelman has evolved in Canada from its legacy as solely a PR agency to an integrated agency with specialties like Data & Intelligence, Paid & Performance Media, Planning & Creative, and Digital Marketing. This evolution has led to integrated mandates with large Canadian brands and the awards to match, from Cannes, CMA, Strategy and the like, all wrapped in an award-winning culture.

**Edelman Toronto is looking for an Influencer and Community Marketing Manager to work with their client, Samsung, as an Independent Contractor. This will be a 12-month assignment.**

The role of the Influencer and Community Marketing Manager is to help build, cultivate, and maintain a positive community of fans/ambassadors across the brand’s social media channels. A strong and engaged community of fans on social media helps drive brand image and reputation, demonstrates the brand is listening and genuinely committed to addressing customer concerns, and helps ensure fans get relevant information to product questions in real time. This role is two-fold: firstly, it centers on building an engaged community through day-to-day community management. Secondly, influencer marketing and creator management to create content that resonates within the brand community.

Within Community Management, the Manager will identify new opportunities and elevate existing positive discussions to create a positive social atmosphere, reward consumers and fans for their engagement with relevant responses and other opportunities (i.e., surprise and delight, contesting, etc.), and help establish the brand’s social media as a core communications hub. In addition, the Community Manager will proactively and reactively help manage risk cross-functionally by identifying negative conversations or concerning trends and triage/respond in real time.

Within Influencer, the Manager will drive strategy and execution across a range of always-on creator programs and campaign launches. While existing organization strategy exists, refining it at a campaign and cross-divisional level is paramount to ensure our programming resonates. This role works closely with the brand’s Direct-to-Consumer team, whereby affiliate influencer marketing is increasingly part of the scope. Driving demand and leads is thereby critical to our programming moving forward. This role works closely with the agency of record for influencer to ensure plans and KPIs are achieved.
