Proven track record building and dramatically growing a significant social or influencer business at global scale, with meaningful global client management

A genuine, visible point of view on the future of the influencer economy — having built or led businesses that already operate with social, influencer and community-led brand building at their center

Deep, senior-level relationships across the platform ecosystem (TikTok, Meta, YouTube, Snap and emerging platforms) and the influencer talent and marketplace landscape

AI- and data-native: hands-on fluency in generative AI, agentic tools, social and influencer analytics, and privacy-safe data collaboration

Exceptional C-suite client relationships and a track record of new business wins, framing social and influencer as a driver of business growth, brand value and commerce

Responsibilities

WPP is a single company: four operating units, four regions, four practices – all united by one platform, WPP Open.

This is a WPP that is simpler to work with and built to win.

As part of the Elevate28 strategy, the company is rewiring itself around AI-powered creativity, a simplified operating model, a sharper client experience, and a high-performance, talent-driven culture.

Few areas of marketing are growing faster than social and influencer — and WPP is establishing dedicated practice leadership to match.

The Global President, Social Influencer will provide dedicated global leadership for WPP’s Social Influencer Practice — unifying the social and influencer expertise that lives today within the agencies of WPP Media and WPP Creative, while building the next generation of social and influencer capability, fit for the future.

It is the leadership of a practice that will define what world-class looks like in the influencer era and make WPP the undisputed leader in social-first, influencer-led brand building.
