Remote Web Content Management System Jobs in Rochester, MI

Role Overview

Blue Wheel is seeking a Creator Partnerships Strategist to support high-volume creator, customer, affiliate, and social commerce content programs.

This role works under the direction of the Creator Partnerships Manager while independently managing creator sourcing, outreach, partnership development, community engagement, content quality, campaign optimization, and reporting across high-volume creator, customer, affiliate, and social commerce programs. The ideal candidate is an experienced operator who can execute at scale while identifying trends and opportunities that improve program performance.

This is not a traditional influencer role focused only on hand-selecting a small group of creators. This role supports scaled creator and customer content programs designed to generate content volume through creator outreach, affiliate activation, customer participation, post-purchase communication, community engagement, cross-posting, repeat participation, and challenge-based incentives.

AI-enabled tools and creator platforms may support sourcing, filtering, outreach, follow-ups, workflow tracking, and reporting. However, this role still requires strong hands-on execution. The Creator Partnerships Strategist will be responsible for reviewing creator fit, managing follow-ups, supporting community activity, QA'ing content, tracking incentives, organizing reporting, and escalating issues that require human judgment.
