About the Company

Saulderson Media (Journey Further Group) is a premium influencer marketing and talent management agency. We specialise in driving awareness and growth, predominantly for gaming, consumer tech, entertainment and SAAS companies.

Alongside this, we manage a roster of high-performing content creators across all platforms, providing support to turn content creation passions into long-lasting careers.

About the role

As the talent executive you will work with the Talent Manager to maintain smooth deal flow and high level delivery for all clients assigned to you. From inbox management to content drafts you will be the first point of contact. While ensuring our talent and their clients are provided the best service, you will be on the lookout for the next big thing. Spotting creators with a spark will be our super power.

You will then work with the Talent Manager to build an approach strategy and growth strategy for these creators. You will develop a deep understanding of each talent's strengths and weaknesses and how Saulderson can help to amplify the strengths and negate the weaknesses.

• Maintain high project management standards and maintain project tracker sheets that are kept up to date
• Assist talent with content trends, content development and general best practices for the industry
• Complete end to end deal processing to ensure a smooth flow of work for all clients

• A genuine passion for the creator economy and a solid understanding of the social media landscape across platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and TikTok
• 1-2 years of experience in talent management, influencer marketing, PR, or a related field
• Strong communicator, confident on calls and emails with both talent and brand partners
• Commercially aware, with an understanding of how brand deals and sponsorship work
• Highly organised with the ability to juggle multiple clients and projects without dropping the ball
• A collaborative team player who is comfortable taking direction and working within established processes
• Sharp attention to detail, particularly when managing briefs, trackers, and client-facing materials
• A natural interest in emerging talent, always keeping one eye on who's up and coming
