Creator Marketing Manager, Whatnot

• You’re a creator marketer with strong taste in internet-native short-form content and a clear eye for what makes creator-led ads work
• You know how to find the right creators, understand what makes their content credible, and turn that instinct into content that can perform in paid channels
• You’re part talent scout, part dealmaker, part operator
• You’re comfortable working across creator sizes, from small UGC creators who can produce at volume to larger influencers who need more hand-holding but can bring stronger reach or category credibility
• You care about performance, not vanity metrics
• You want to know what caught attention, what converted, what we should repeat, and what we should cut
• People who do well at Whatnot tend to be comfortable figuring things out as they go, biased toward action, and genuinely curious about what they're building
• They care more about outcomes than credit and stay close to the product and the people using it
• As our next creator marketing manager, you should have 3+ years of experience in creator marketing, influencer marketing, UGC, or performance creative
• Proven experience sourcing, signing, and managing creators end-to-end
• Experience briefing creators to self-produce content with performance in mind
• Commercial instincts across creator fees, usage rights, deliverables, timelines, and renewals
• Strong organisation and follow-through. You can run a high-volume creator pipeline without letting details slip
• A test-and-learn mindset. You’re comfortable reading creative performance data and using it to decide what to repeat, cut, or try next
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and building the playbook while executing every week
• Fluent English plus fluent French
