Responsibilities

Deal Making: Close $350K/mo of YouTube Sponsorship Deals

• Build relationships with key YouTubers to pitch their channels for brand deals
• Grow 5–7 key brand relationships to be consistent spenders with their roster of creators
• Negotiate and close hundreds of influencer deals per month

Client-Facing Communication

Operations & Process

• Wherever possible, implement process improvements to enhance business efficiency and improve client service

Skills & Competencies

Work Experience

• 2–4 years' work experience in influencer partnerships, project management, customer service, or operations

• Must be comfortable picking up the phone and calling a client for important matters

Attention to Detail

Large influencer campaigns often worth $5K–$50K for one ad placement are handled regularly. Any mistakes can be costly, so high attention to detail is crucial.

Relationship Builder

Relationships are not built just off personality — they're built off adding value and showing up for clients. They're not looking for the best "personality" person, but rather someone who is honest, reliable, and values long-term relationships over a quick buck.

Tech Savviness

Proficiency in Airtable, Notion, Asana, and Google Sheets is required. The business is remote so the ideal candidate will be overall quick and effective with the computer.

Critical Thinking

The ideal candidate can critically think through issues and make decisions on their own. Sometimes there will not be a straightforward solution to a problem found in an SOP, and you'll be required to think outside of the box.

Reliability

Ads are running and deals are closing daily. They need someone reliable who can work beyond regular hours for tight deadlines.

• $5,000 in commissions per month after initial 3–6 month ramp-up
