Offer description

About You

You're the person clients trust with the truth. You can run a room, run a campaign, and run a team without losing your head or your taste. You understand creators, culture, platforms, and business outcomes in equal measure.

You're not here for account politics. You're here to shape work with impact, protect ideas, and lead clients somewhere they didn't know they were brave enough to go.

About KBD

Kill Boring Dead is a creative agency. We move fast, think differently, and build ideas that make people feel something.

We're scaling our media division, levelling up systems, and building a unique agency model. We use AI, automation, and new tools to move at speed, and expect our leaders to know when technology should simplify the work or amplify the idea.

You'll be part of a team that values curiosity, clarity, creative ambition, and staying calm under pressure.

What You'll Do

* Lead social-first accounts with confidence, clarity, and partnership energy.
* Run campaigns across social, content, influencer, UGC, and paid.
* Build strategies that shift behaviour, not fill calendars.
* Manage creator campaigns end to end.
* Collaborate with media + performance for tight alignment.
* Use AI + automation where it helps us move faster and smarter.
* Brief designers, editors, producers, creators, and media teams.
* Guide creative without micromanaging.
* Write sharp decks, proposals, and reports.
* Keep comms smooth, momentum high, clients happy.
* Spot upsell opportunities that genuinely help clients.
* Shape systems as we build toward a scalable agency model.
* Be a steady leader, calm, direct, organised, human.

* Confident with feedback, clients, and protecting the work.
* Proactive, organised, curious.

What This Isn't

* A rigid, corporate model.
* A role without influence.
* A job for someone allergic to speed, creativity, or experimentation.
* Boring.

Perks + Culture

* Unique perks and experiences custom build for you.
* Competitive salary + super.
* Birthday off.
* Monthly wellness days.
* $500 wellbeing budget.
* Team retreats in weird places.
