Account Manager Luxe SAMY L'Oréal Benelux

Are you ready to combine passion for luxury, creativity, and influencer marketing in a highly visible role? At SAMY x team5pm, we’re looking for an Account Manager who will drive the influencer marketing strategy for L'Oréal’s Luxe division. Dive into a world where you collaborate directly with the most prestigious beauty brands and leave your mark on iconic campaigns!

As an Account Manager Luxe, you’ll be responsible for the full influencer marketing scope for top-tier brands such as: Lancôme, Yves Saint Laurent, Armani, HR, Carita Paris, Biotherm, Aesop, Valentino, Prada, miu miu, Maison Margiela, Viktor & Rolf, Ralph Lauren, Diesel, cacharel, Atelier Cologne, iT cosmetics, Kiehl's, Urban Decay, Youth to the People, Takami, shu uemura, and Yue sai. From luxury skincare to cutting-edge fragrance, this is your stage for creativity, data-driven leadership, and global impact. You’ll be responsible for the strategy, influencer campaigns, and results within your specific division. Cross-division thinking is second nature to you: you spot opportunities to collaborate and safeguard the cross-category standards set by L'Oréal on a global level. You are the primary point of contact for various division leaders, working in an innovative, ambitious, and diverse team.

What you’ll do

• Act as the Account Manager for the stunning L'Oréal Luxe portfolio; you are the first point of contact for all influencer campaigns within these high-profile brands.
• Receive briefs from L'Oréal and build high-level strategic and creative influencer campaign proposals, together with the SAMY and team5pm specialists.
• Spot, brief, and onboard the best influencer talent for each brand—across Belgian, Dutch, and international markets.
• Oversee end-to-end campaign execution: create robust content calendars, track performance, adjust strategies, and ensure every activation radiates luxury standards.
• Ensure seamless communication between brands, influencers, and our internal teams during events and brand activations.
• Collaborate with booking and data teams to drive negotiation strategies, identify market trends, and deliver in-depth post-campaign insights.
• Resolve any issues with agility and an eye for opportunity; you act as a strategic troubleshooter.
• Aggregate influencer results, extract valuable insights, and proactively pitch new opportunities for your assigned brands.
• Supervise all legal and financial processes to guarantee compliance across luxury brands.
• Mentor and guide (junior) team members and interns and help elevate our standard of excellence.

What are we looking for

• About 4-6 years of experience in influencer marketing or a similar field, with proven ability to run campaigns from A to Z, ideally with luxury brands or in a premium environment.
• Experience leading at least one or two junior colleagues, with a natural ability to take the lead when projects need direction.
• Deep understanding of the luxury market, with a background from a top agency or client side. Experience in the Benelux is a huge plus.
• Up-to-date with social trends and a strong grasp of influencer marketing: you know what’s hot, what works, and how to spot opportunities.
• Organized and structured, bringing positivity and a solution-first mindset to the team.
• Confident with Excel, able to dive into data, spot insights, and create impactful, clear reports.
• Comfortable juggling multiple projects at once and able to switch gears when required.
• Fluent in English, both written and spoken. Dutch and/or French language skills are a definite bonus.
• Strategic, creative, energetic, and driven—someone who lifts the bar for everyone.
