Job Description

Schedule: Monday to Friday

Shift: Monday - Friday 5:00 PM – 1:00 AM PHT

Type: Full-time, Independent Contractor, remote (this must be your only job). No other employment or freelance projects.

Key responsibilities:

New business

  • Build and manage a pipeline of new contracts: prospecting, outreach, pitching, and closing
  • Own revenue targets and report on pipeline, conversion, and closed deals weekly
  • Prepare proposals, pitch decks, and pricing in coordination with leadership

Influencer brand deals

  • Secure paid partnerships, sponsorships, and brand deals for the influencer brands on the roster
  • Negotiate rates, deliverables, usage rights, and contract terms
  • Match talent to the right brands and campaigns based on audience fit and performance
  • Manage brand relationships from first pitch through campaign delivery and renewal

Growth and consistency

  • Turn one-off deals into repeat business and retainers
  • Track market rates, competitor activity, and new brand categories to target
  • Work with the CEO, Social Media Growth Specialist, and Community Engagement Specialist to map business goals and align sales targets with what the team can deliver
  • Help build repeatable sales processes, templates, and a CRM the team can rely on

Unique skillset:

  • Hunter mindset: comfortable with cold outreach, follow-ups, and rejection; keeps pushing until deals close
  • Two-sided selling: can sell agency services to businesses and sell talent to brand marketing teams
  • Strong negotiator: knows influencer rate cards, usage rights, exclusivity, and how to protect talent value
  • Existing network: relationships with brand managers, marketing agencies, or PR teams already in place
  • Commercial and numbers-driven: understands margins, forecasting, and which deals actually grow the business
  • Consistent and self-managed: keeps a steady weekly rhythm of outreach and reporting without being chased
  • Clear communicator: polished on calls, in proposals, and over email; represents the brand well

Nice to have:

  • Experience with a CRM (HubSpot, Pipedrive, or similar)
  • Understanding of social media metrics (reach, engagement, conversion) to back up pitches with data
  • Preferred industry experience
  • 10+ years in business development, partnerships, or sales
  • Top fit: influencer marketing agency, talent management, or creator economy company
  • Strong fit: digital or social media agency, PR agency, or brand partnerships at a media company
  • Good fit: brand-side marketing (someone who has bought influencer deals and knows how brands decide)
  • Track record of closing deals with measurable revenue, ideally with numbers they can share

What success looks like:

  • Month 1: pipeline and CRM set up, target brand and client list built, first outreach running
  • Month 3: first new contracts and brand deals closed, steady weekly deal flow
  • Month 6: PBS on a sustainable, predictable revenue run with repeat clients and brand partners
  • Beyond month 6: as the company grows, potential to move into a senior business development role and build out a team
