Partnership Marketing Manager, Creators & Culture

About the role

Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market platform. We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs. Built as a peer-to-peer marketplace with no centralized "house," Polymarket aggregates diverse opinions into transparent, market-based probabilities that reflect collective expectations about the future. We're growing fast — both in terms of volume ($21B traded in 2025) and adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire.

Responsibilities

• Manage day-to-day relationships with creator and cultural partners — ensuring deliverables are met, content is on-brand, and value is being extracted on both sides
• Develop and champion creative concepts that turn partnership rights into culturally resonant moments — from ideation through production
• Build and own the distribution strategy that amplifies partnership content across owned, earned, and paid channels — developing the infrastructure and playbooks to maximize reach for every activation
• Identify and pitch new creator and cultural partnership opportunities that expand Polymarket's reach into untapped audiences
• Track performance across all creator activations using clear KPIs — impressions, engagement, referral traffic, acquisition — and iterate based on results
• Align with internal teams (marketing, product, comms) to ensure creator content integrates seamlessly with broader campaign moments

Requirements

• Experience managing creator or influencer partnerships — you've handled talent relationships end-to-end, not just briefed an agency
• Deep fluency in how content travels across platforms — TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, X, podcasts — and what makes something actually spread
• Strong creative instincts with a track record of activations that felt culturally native, not forced
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple partners and deliverables simultaneously without losing the thread
• Comfort working in ambiguity with a bias toward action — you figure things out and move fast

Qualifications

• Prior experience at a creator platform, media company, or talent agency
• Existing relationships in the creator, podcast, or entertainment space
• Familiarity with prediction markets, crypto, or fintech audiences
• Experience building creator programs or ambassador ecosystems from scratch

Skills

• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Strong project management and organizational skills
• Understanding of marketing and branding principles
