Influencer Marketing Manager

Role

As an Influencer Marketing Manager, you'll own influencer strategy and execution across Whatnot's paid influencer program. You'll manage a portfolio of creator relationships spanning top-tier and macro talent down to high-performing mid-tier creators. You're someone who can operate within an existing system, iterate on it, and build the next version of it — bringing structure and instinct in equal measure. You'll report on key success metrics and proactively drive toward program-level goals.

• Influencer Strategy: Develop campaigns that map to specific creator archetypes and activation formats, partnering closely with the Category Marketing team.
• Outreach: Source and reach creators through email, DM, or whatever creative channel gets results.
