What you'll own
- Creator program strategy and operations: Lead end-to-end creator program design and execution across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Develop tiering frameworks, sourcing criteria, and briefing standards that scale.
- High-volume roster management: Own a large portfolio of mid-tier and micro creators - from sourcing and vetting to contracting, content review, and off-boarding. Maintain an always-on, high-quality pipeline.
- UGC and content infrastructure: Build and continuously improve the systems, tools, and templates the team relies on - databases, brief libraries, onboarding flows, content review trackers, and performance dashboards.
- Performance and optimization: Own program-level KPI reporting. Translate creator and content performance data into clear recommendations. Lead monthly program reviews with stakeholders.
- Cross-functional leadership: Act as the connective tissue between Creator, Influencer, Paid Media, and Social teams. Drive alignment on creator output priorities and ensure content is fit for paid amplification and whitelisting.
- Team mentorship: Guide and support junior Creator Managers and coordinators. Establish standards, review work, and serve as an escalation point for complex creator situations.
What you bring
- 5-7 years in influencer marketing, creator management, or social operations - with meaningful experience managing high-volume creator programs at a consumer brand or agency.
- Proven track record building or scaling creator program infrastructure (not just executing within it).
- Expert-level fluency with creator platforms (CreatorIQ, Mavrck, Mavely, or equivalent).
- Strong analytical capability - comfortable owning performance reporting and turning data into decisions.
- Experience with TikTok Shop, affiliate creator models, and UGC amplification via paid media.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
