At Social Soup, Emily will put a global lens on its creator programs and will be responsible for leading client services across the client portfolio.

Social Soup Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Sharyn Smith, said:

“We’re so excited to have Emily join the Social Soup team. She will be a great asset for us both internally and for all our clients.

“With the booming creator economy, the brands seeing the strongest returns are the ones treating influence as infrastructure, building communities of creators and fans who show up consistently. Creators are sitting right in the centre of community and culture right now, and having the right people leading this strategy is how we keep delivering the kind of compounding results our clients are seeing.

“Emily has already proved her expertise when she led the creator panel at our Influencer Upfronts just recently and I look forward to working with her more, especially as we shape and own our creator academy programs for clients this year,”

she said.

Emily’s appointment comes at a pivotal time for influencer marketing, as the creator economy passes $1 billion in ad spend and brands increasingly shift budgets from traditional channels to always-on creator programs.
