Job Description

Digital Talent Manager — Influencer/Creator

New York City | Office-based

We’re working with a boutique digital talent management agency in New York looking to hire a Senior Talent Manager or Talent Manager to join its growing team.

The agency takes a high-touch approach to representation, working closely with creators across brand partnerships, commercial strategy and long-term career development. As a smaller business, Talent Managers have genuine ownership of their roster and the opportunity to play a visible role in the growth of both their clients and the wider agency.

The business is founder-led, with an entertainment and data-led background at its core, and is particularly focused on building sustainable creator careers rather than simply facilitating individual brand deals.

The Role

You’ll manage a roster of digital creators and act as the central point of contact across their commercial and career development.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing day-to-day relationships with a roster of digital creators
  • Identifying and negotiating brand partnerships and sponsorship opportunities
  • Proactively pitching talent to brands, agencies and commercial partners
  • Managing inbound partnership opportunities from initial enquiry through negotiation and delivery
  • Supporting creators with longer-term career and commercial strategy
  • Developing strong relationships with brand and agency contacts
  • Helping identify and sign new talent to the agency
  • Working closely with internal leadership on roster development and wider agency growth
  • Ensuring creators are supported throughout campaigns while protecting their long-term interests
  • Keeping on top of the creator, social media and influencer marketing landscape

What They’re Looking For

You should already have experience working in digital talent management or creator representation.

They’re particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:

  • Experience managing social-first creators or influencers
  • Strong understanding of brand partnerships and creator monetisation
  • Confidence negotiating commercial agreements
  • Existing relationships across brands, agencies and the creator industry
  • Ability to proactively generate opportunities rather than relying entirely on inbound deals
  • Strong creator relationship management
  • Good commercial judgement and organisation
  • A genuine interest in helping creators build long-term careers

This would suit someone currently working within a larger agency who wants more ownership, or someone already working within a boutique environment who wants to join a growing business.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!
