The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Head of US Digital, Senior Vice President who can lead our North American digital practice with both strategic vision and hands‑on execution. This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage from the sidelines. You’ll oversee social media strategy, executive social, paid media, and influencer marketing while providing senior‑level strategic counsel to some of the most innovative companies in AI and technology. You will define and execute a growth strategy, shape our future, and act as the digital and social lead for high‑stakes new business pitches. As a member of our North American Leadership Team, you will partner with peers across the business to power our continued growth.
What You’ll Do
- Lead Digital Strategy : Oversee social media, executive social media, paid media, and influencer marketing capabilities across the US practice
- Senior Client Counsel : Serve as a strategic advisor to clients on digital and social initiatives – you’ll be in the room where decisions are made, not managing timesheets
- Win New Business : Lead digital and social strategy for new business pitches, bringing innovative thinking that helps Axicom stand out
- Stay Ahead : Keep Axicom at the forefront of digital trends, platforms, and AI‑powered tools in the communications space
- Collaborate with Global Studios : Partner with Axicom’s global studios team to produce compelling content that resonates with target audiences and drives results
- Collaborate Across Burson/WPP : Leverage the broader network when it serves our clients, while maintaining our nimble, entrepreneurial approach
- Build and Mentor : Guide a small team of digital specialists – you’ll manage teams that handle budgets and accounts, but you won’t be buried in P&L spreadsheets
- Deliver Thought Leadership : Translate trends at the forefront of AI, digital communications, and social media into thought leadership that reinforces Axicom’s position as the Agency of the Future
- Practice What You Preach : Get your hands dirty – whether that’s crafting a LinkedIn strategy, evaluating influencer partnerships, or pressure‑testing a paid media plan
Who You Are
- Experienced : 12‑15+ years in digital and social media, with substantial agency experience
- LinkedIn Native & Multi‑Platform Expertise : Deep expertise in LinkedIn and X native strategy, particularly for B2B, technology and exec comms lens and executive social; you also know your way around Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, and you have a finger on the pulse across all emerging platforms
- Strategic + Tactical : You can develop a brilliant strategy and also roll up your sleeves to execute it
- Strong Writer : You write exceptionally well and have the taste to evaluate and optimize content that resonates with people
- Client‑Ready : Comfortable presenting to C‑suite clients and serving as a trusted senior advisor
- Tech/AI Savvy : Passionate about technology, AI, and the companies building the future
- Entrepreneurial : You thrive in small, fast‑moving environments where everyone contributes and no one hides behind their title
- Direct and Collaborative : You say what you mean, welcome feedback, and believe the best work happens when smart people challenge each other
- A Winner : You love the thrill of winning new business and delivering exceptional work for clients
Why Axicom
- Hands‑On Leadership : Even our CEO is an active practitioner. No one is just an overseer.
