About the Role

HIRING FOR FEB 2027 START

Reports to: Head of Brand Partnerships

We're looking for a Brand Partnerships Manager to join our team. In this role, you'll own a strategic book of business, building partnerships between leading brands and our creators, driving revenue, and shaping how Smooth shows up in the market with the partners that matter most.

This is a mid-senior individual contributor seat for someone who's done the work before. You'll be expected to hunt your own pipeline, close your own deals, and lift the team through example, not formal management. Strong performers grow into Senior Manager, Brand Partnerships and beyond as we scale.

If you're a sharp closer who builds trust quickly, knows the creator economy or B2B media inside out, and wants to own real revenue at a fast-growing company, this role is for you.
