Technical Lead

Introducing Influencer...

Influencer enables brands to be seen at scale across digital; driving growth and guaranteed success on social media. We build meaningful relationships between creators and brands, whilst making advertising effective, but more importantly inclusive.

Our purpose is to Make Waves; an idea seeded in the fact that our creators tell stories that build human connections, which set off waves of influence. These waves of influence become our data layers, from which we measure the impact. Our clients and creators make waves, we measure the impact.

We are an Official Global Marketing Partner with Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and TikTok - they re also our clients too!

Co-founded by entrepreneur Ben Jeffries and YouTuber Caspar Lee, we re a global team of 85+ with some of the best talent in the industry across New York, London, Manchester, Dubai and Warsaw. We re championing a new era of creativity and producing award-winning campaigns for brands such as Google, Vodafone, Playtika, Procter & Gamble, Pernod Ricard and Levi s, to name a few.
