5 Examples of a Social Media Influencer Job Description

These examples of a social media influencer job description might help you write one of your own. And a heads up…I wrote the first one in Ongig’s Text Analyzer software.

Note: All of these examples score 80% (or higher) in Text Analyzer, are gender-neutral, and have no other biased language (race, age, disability, sexual orientation & more).

Let’s dive in.

Social Media Influencer Job Description — Free Template

Try using this influencer marketing job description template as your guide. I’ve listed ideas so you can easily copy and paste them.

Job Title

[Here, you can use” Social Media Influencer” or any other influencer titles that fit the role you are hiring.]

There’s a great table of the most-searched influencer titles at the end of this post that might help guide you too!

Tip: Try to keep your job titles between 1-3 words and 20 syllables or less. This makes them easier to read and helps with SEO. For example, “Influencer” is a better title than “Social Media Marketing Influencer – Global Products Department.”

About You

[This is where you talk about your social media influencer role.]

Include a sentence on:

• what the influencer does
• some goals to reach for
• how they work with their team (or across teams)

Tip: Look at other companies for inspiration and give it your own spin (be unique!).

What You’ll Do

[Here is where you can list more detail about the day-to-day of the role.]

Some examples:

• partner with the marketing team to develop a social strategy
• create social content to share on TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter
• build and schedule a monthly content calendar
• gather audience feedback on social media posts

Tip: Keep your “responsibilities” lists short. Using more than 7 bullets might overwhelm candidates or make them feel underqualified.

What We’re Looking For

[This section is where you list basic influencer responsibilities, qualifications, and experience.]

For example:

• High school diploma
• Ability to build relationships through social media channels
• Experience posting on TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, or other social media platforms
• Experience with social media management tools (Zoho, Buffer, Hootsuite, or others).

Tip: Leave out “years of experience” if you can, you might exclude candidates based on age. An Influencers or an Influencer Manager can be any age!

Salary & Benefits

[List any perks your social media influencer will get if they join the team. And include salary information if you can.]

Here are a few examples:

• salary range of $45,000-75,000 per year
• fully remote role
• flexible working hours
• free product samples
• family health insurance

Tip: Even if it’s a range, list salary details. Candidates spend more time looking at it than anything else. This heatmap of what candidates look at on a job description (by Content Marketer Greg Lewis of LinkedIn) show’s how important it is.

About Us

[Here, you talk about you!]

Some ideas to include:

• what business you are in
• how great the company is
• your core values

Tip: Save the “About Us” section for the end (even though about 50% of JDs start with About Us). Instead, end your JD with the About Us. That way, you can START your JD about the candidate/role, making them feel valued.

Diversity Statement

[Most companies have an EEO or diversity statement. You can put yours here.]

Here’s a sample:

We embrace diversity and equality in a serious way. We are committed to building a team with a variety of backgrounds, skills, and views. The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be. Creating a culture of Equality isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s also the smart thing.

Tip: You can find more examples in our blog 25 Examples of Awesome Diversity Statements.

Optional Sections

[These are some optional sections you might use in your social media influencer job description template.]

• travel requirements
• remote work policies
• disability accomodations
• how to apply

Tip: Most job boards you post on will have a built-in “apply” process, but in case they don’t, you should be clear about how to apply.
