About Us

We’re Influence Digital - a creative digital marketing agency that helps brands connect with audiences in meaningful ways.

Founded in 2009, we started as a specialist social agency in the music industry and have since grown into a full-service digital marketing agency working across entertainment, culture, travel, technology, non-profits and consumer brands. Today, our team of digital specialists collaborates across strategy, creative, social and paid media to deliver campaigns that make a genuine impact.

Our people are at the heart of everything we do. We’re a collaborative, curious and supportive team that believes the best work comes from bringing together different perspectives, ideas and expertise. We care deeply about the work we create, the clients we partner with and the culture we build together as an agency.

We’re looking for a People & Culture Manager who will help us nurture this environment and ensure that our team of 50 has the support, structure and opportunities they need to thrive.

Role Overview

Reporting to the CEO, the People & Culture Manager plays a key role in shaping and supporting the teams that power Influence Digital.

You will lead and deliver our People & Culture strategy, helping us continue to build a collaborative, values-driven agency where people can do their best work. Working closely with the senior management team, you will translate people strategy into practical processes and ways of working that drive performance, engagement and growth across the agency.

Influence Digital is a fast-paced, creative environment, so we’re looking for someone who brings both clarity and adaptability to the role. You’ll be people-centred, practical and solutions-focused, with the experience to advise senior stakeholders and the attention to detail needed to deliver high-quality HR practices. With a collaborative and proactive mindset, you’ll help ensure our people experience reflects our core values, while supporting the continued growth of both our team and the agency.

This is a hybrid role, with a requirement to be in the office at our London HQ in Shoreditch on a regular basis.

Key Responsibilities

Own the end-to-end employee lifecycle, including onboarding, offboarding and key people processes across the agency.

Support managers to run effective performance and development conversations, including goal setting, feedback and development planning.
Guide managers in addressing performance challenges, ensuring issues are handled fairly and with confidence and consistency.
Help identify skills gaps, development needs and succession opportunities across the team.
Collaborate with managers to identify learning needs and support the delivery of L&D initiatives.
Continuously review and improve People & Culture processes to ensure they remain effective.

Maintain and update policies, ensuring compliance with employment legislation and best practice.

Manage key employee documentation, including contracts and employment records.

Work closely with the Finance Manager to support payroll processes.

Manage visa sponsorship and employment requirements for international team members.

4+ years’ experience in HR / People & Culture roles, ideally within an agency, creative, or fast-paced environment.
Experience managing end-to-end recruitment processes and supporting department leads to deliver an excellent candidate experience.
Experience in supporting managers with performance management, feedback and development conversations.
Solid knowledge of HR fundamentals including contracts and employee documentation.

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trusted relationships across teams and seniority levels.

A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with the ability to navigate ambiguity and manage competing priorities.

High standards for quality, ownership and discretion when handling sensitive information.

Comfortable working with HR and collaboration tools such as HRIS (e.g. HiBob), ATS (e.g. Teamtailor), Slack and Google Workspace.

Confidence working autonomously in a standalone People & Culture role while collaborating closely with leadership.
