About the role
Overview: Studio McGee is looking for an Influencer Marketing Manager to lead the day-to-day strategy and execution of our influencer and creator marketing program. This role will help evolve our influencer program beyond gifting and traditional affiliate relationships into a more intentional mix of organic relationships, paid creator partnerships, affiliate commerce, and high-performing creator content that can be amplified across the broader marketing ecosystem. The Influencer Marketing Manager will identify and cultivate creators who authentically represent the Studio McGee brand, develop partnerships that introduce new customers to Studio McGee and drive product discovery, and build a pipeline of compelling creator content that can be leveraged across paid media, email, social, PDPs, and other owned channels. The ideal candidate has strong instincts for brand and design, understands the creator landscape, is highly relationship-oriented, and is equally comfortable evaluating creative quality and analyzing performance. Who We are: Founded in 2014, Studio McGee, Inc. is one of the fastest growing home design brands in America. Our journey began with a thriving interiors business that focused on approachable, yet aspirational design. By leveraging the power of digital communities, we were able to expand our footprint in the interior design industry through an unconventional approach that connected us with our consumers. We continued to carry that forward-thinking attitude into the launch of our retail business, McGee & Co., which anchors the operational and revenue growth of our company. Our licensing partnerships allow us to further expand our design voice beyond our own collection. From a multi-year partnership with Target to an Emmy-nominated Netflix Series and a NY Times Best-Selling book, Studio McGee's passion is to empower people to design with an approachability that enhances their daily life and elevates their every day. Whether following us on social media or becoming part of our company, we invite you to join us on our mission to “Make Life Beautiful.”
