Head of Influencer Marketing

Accountabilities: Lead the influencer marketing function, taking direct ownership of creator partnerships, sponsorship investments, campaign profitability, and long-term commercial growth. You will initially remain closely involved in daily operations while gradually developing the team, processes, and infrastructure needed to manage an expanding creator portfolio.

• Identify, research, source, and evaluate gaming YouTubers and other relevant content creators, prioritizing long-form YouTube sponsorship opportunities.

• Manage paid creator partnerships across YouTube long-form, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, and other relevant platforms, with approximately 90% of activities focused on long-form YouTube content.

• Build, manage, and expand a portfolio of more than 50 active creator relationships, maintaining a consistent pipeline for outreach, negotiations, contracted content, follow-ups, payments, reporting, and renewals.

• Develop long-term creator relationships through recurring sponsorship agreements covering multiple content releases over several months or years.

• Personally negotiate sponsorship budgets, pricing, and commercial terms with creators, talent managers, and influencer agencies.

• Determine appropriate partnership structures, including fixed-fee, CPM-based, hybrid, performance-linked, and multi-video agreements.

• Evaluate creator opportunities based on expected views, audience demographics, conversion potential, contribution margins, seasonal demand, and overall campaign profitability.

• Independently assess the commercial value of each partnership and determine appropriate investment levels based on expected returns.

• Adapt sponsorship budgets and renegotiate agreements according to product releases, promotional periods, seasonal trends, and changing market conditions.

• Consider product margins, game popularity, audience geography, seasonality, and historical campaign performance when making investment decisions.

• Maintain accountability for sponsorship spending and profitability, evaluating commercial results rather than focusing exclusively on impressions, reach, or outreach activity.

• Manage a substantial monthly sponsorship budget while maintaining clear visibility into spending, commitments, and campaign outcomes.

• Prioritize multiple creator commitments and ensure consistent follow-through across negotiations, deliverables, payments, performance reporting, and renewals.

• Identify opportunities to improve campaign performance, expand successful partnerships, and scale profitable creator collaborations.

• Initially provide guidance and support to an existing team member while remaining directly involved in creator relationship management.

• Gradually recruit, train, and manage additional operational support, including influencer marketing coordinators and account managers.

• Develop scalable processes and team structures to support the expansion of the creator portfolio.

• Progressively shift focus toward strategic growth, major negotiations, high-value partnerships, and overall commercial leadership.

Requirements :

We are looking for a highly experienced influencer marketing professional with substantial hands-on expertise in paid YouTube long-form sponsorships and direct commercial ownership. The ideal candidate combines strong negotiation skills, financial awareness, and a deep understanding of gaming audiences with the ability to independently manage a significant creator portfolio and deliver profitable partnerships.

• Significant, directly relevant experience managing paid YouTube long-form sponsorships across multiple creators and campaigns. This must represent a substantial part of your previous experience rather than occasional exposure to a few integrations.

• Proven commercial ownership, including personally setting or significantly influencing sponsorship pricing, negotiating partnership structures, and evaluating campaign profitability.

• Experience independently managing a meaningful monthly sponsorship budget, with the ability to clearly explain the amount personally controlled rather than the overall budget managed by an agency or organization.

• Strong negotiation experience across different deal structures, creator sizes, audience demographics, and products.

• Demonstrated experience developing recurring sponsorship agreements and long-term creator partnerships rather than relying exclusively on one-off campaigns.

• Practical understanding of how product margins, game popularity, audience geography, seasonality, and campaign results influence sponsorship pricing and investment decisions.

• Experience managing a substantial portfolio of active creator relationships while balancing multiple commercial commitments and deadlines.

• Working knowledge of short-form sponsorship content, including YouTube Shorts and repurposed TikTok and Instagram content, while maintaining long-form YouTube sponsorships as your primary area of expertise.

• Strong understanding of gaming creators, YouTube audiences, and the broader gaming content ecosystem.

• Excellent written English communication skills.

• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and consistent follow-through.

• Ability to work independently, make commercially sound decisions, and take full ownership of results.

• Nice to have:

• Established relationships with gaming YouTubers, talent managers, or creator agencies.

• Experience directly managing 50–100+ active paid creator partnerships.

• Previous experience recruiting, mentoring, or managing influencer marketing coordinators or account managers.

• Experience negotiating bundled short-form placements, content reuse rights, and additional cross-platform promotional opportunities.

• Background working with digital gaming products, niche e-commerce products, or seasonal performance-marketing categories.

• Familiarity with influencer marketing CRM platforms, campaign performance reporting tools, and WordPress.

Benefits :

• Monthly base salary ranging from $2,000 to $3,000 USD, depending on experience and qualifications.

• Full-time, long-term employment opportunity.

• 100% remote working arrangement from eligible Latin American countries.

• Monday-to-Friday core working schedule, with approximately 8 hours per day.

• Preferred availability for approximately one additional hour per day on Saturdays and Sundays, with some overlap with Australian Eastern Time (GMT+10).

• Occasional flexibility for short-notice coordination around major game releases and promotional periods.

• Paid vacation leave after three months.

• Potential performance-based bonuses.

• Opportunity to progress into broader commercial leadership responsibilities.

• Opportunity to build and lead a dedicated influencer marketing support team.

• Significant ownership of sponsorship strategy, commercial decisions, and creator partnership growth.
