Pet Creator Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Muddy Mat

Muddy Mat is Catch Creation's flagship 9-figure pet products brand, beloved by dog lovers across America. Our chenille doormats solve a real problem for pet parents who love their dogs playing outside but hate the mess that comes with it. We've grown from a direct-response television brand into a multi-channel powerhouse with strong positions on Amazon (#8 in Pet Supplies with nearly 40,000 reviews), TikTok Shop (#2 pet brand by GMV), and expanding into major retail.

We're building something special here, a brand that resonates authentically with our customers while scaling aggressively through social commerce. This role is central to our next phase of growth.

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced Head of TikTok Shop to take full ownership of our TikTok Shop channel and drive it to the next level. This is not an entry-level position, we need someone who has already managed TikTok Shop at scale and can hit the ground running.

You will own the entire TikTok Shop ecosystem: creator/affiliate recruitment and management, content strategy, LIVE shopping coordination with our agency partner, shop optimization, and team leadership. You'll manage the relationship with our TikTok Shop agency while building and leading an internal team that drives organic growth through creator relationships and community building.

IMPORTANT: This role requires proven TikTok Shop management experience. We need someone who deeply understands TikTok Seller Center, affiliate commission structures, creator outreach workflows, content performance analytics, and the nuances of building a creator community that authentically represents our brand.
