Job Description

Our client in the influencer agency space is looking for a director of talent to join their team! Title: Director of Talent Location: Austin, TX or New York City Employment Type: Full-Time Work Model: Hybrid — 3 days/week Experience: 5+ years in talent management, creator economy, or high-level commercial partnerships Preferred Background: Talent-management agencies, entertainment agencies, or creator-commerce platforms We are seeking a strategic, commercially minded Director of Talent to lead talent-management strategy and drive meaningful partnership growth across a high-priority roster of social-first creators. This senior role is ideal for someone with direct talent-management experience—particularly from boutique talent management firms, major entertainment agencies, modeling and talent agencies, or creator-economy platforms. Experience representing creators, developing their long-term business strategy, and securing high-value commercial partnerships is essential. While brand-side or traditional agency experience may be considered for more junior roles, this Director-level position requires a strong foundation in talent representation, relationship management, and dealmaking. What You’ll Do Lead talent-management strategy for a priority roster, serving as a senior advisor on career positioning, social strategy, partnership development, and long-term growth. Source, pitch, negotiate, close, and retain high-value talent and brand partnerships that support revenue and roster-growth goals. Create individualized business plans and brand-extension strategies based on each creator’s audience, strengths, commercial potential, and long-term objectives. Build and deepen executive-level relationships with brands, agencies, platforms, and industry partners to create new business opportunities. Oversee complex negotiations and contract execution, ensuring partnerships are strategically sound, commercially successful, and seamlessly delivered. Partner with Brand Partnerships leadership to align talent recommendations, campaign strategy, messaging, and execution with client objectives. Identify emerging platform trends, cultural shifts, and monetization opportunities, translating them into actionable strategies for talent and the business. Help refine talent-management processes, share market intelligence, and mentor junior team members as the organization grows. What You Bring 5+ years of progressive experience in talent management, creator/influencer marketing, entertainment, or commercial partnerships. Direct experience representing talent, managing creator relationships, and building revenue-generating partnerships. A background with a talent-management agency, entertainment agency, creator-commerce platform, or similar creator-led business is strongly preferred. Demonstrated success negotiating sophisticated brand, talent, and commercial agreements. Deep knowledge of the creator economy, social platforms, brand marketing, and the evolving influencer landscape. A strategic, entrepreneurial approach with the ability to prioritize opportunities and solve complex problems independently. Exceptional relationship-building, communication, negotiation, and project-management skills. Experience mentoring, guiding, or informally leading colleagues is strongly preferred. #J-18808-Ljbffr
