Summary

Influencer & Creator Acquisition Specialist – High-Volume Outreach (US-Based role) We are a growing cosmetics brand looking for a highly motivated Influencer & Creator Acquisition Specialist to join our team. This is NOT a traditional Social Media Manager role. We are not looking for someone whose main focus is events, social media calendars, or brand strategy. We need a hunter, someone who enjoys finding creators, starting conversations, following up, building relationships and getting influencers to join and become active with our brand. Your main mission (US-based role. Your local time zone matters, so you will not be required to work night hours) Build our creator/influencer network through consistent, high-volume outreach. You will be responsible for: * Finding relevant nano, micro and mid-size influencers/creators * Reaching out to approximately 500 qualified creators per month * Contacting creators through Instagram, TikTok, email, ShopMy and other relevant platforms * Starting conversations and explaining our creator opportunity * Following up consistently * Answering questions and overcoming objections * Getting interested creators registered/onboarded * Encouraging newly onboarded creators to become active * Maintaining accurate outreach and onboarding records * Tracking response, conversion and activation rates * Testing different outreach messages and approaches * Reporting results weekly Who we are looking for We want someone who is: * Extremely proactive and hardworking * Comfortable with high-volume outreach * An excellent communicator * Persuasive without being pushy * Comfortable sending DMs and emails every day * Highly organized * Fast and action-oriented * Not afraid of rejection * Social-media savvy * Familiar with Instagram and TikTok * Experience with ShopMy, affiliate marketing or creator platforms is a strong advantage * Interested in beauty/cosmetics/fashion/lifestyle creators Most importantly: You need to enjoy outreach. If you prefer planning campaigns, organizing events or creating social-media strategies, this is probably not the right position. If you see 500 potential creators and think: "Great. Let me start contacting them." —we want to hear from you. Performance expectations Our initial target is approximately: 500+ qualified creator outreaches/month We want to build toward a substantial number of new creators joining our network every month. We will measure: * Qualified creators contacted * Response rate * Positive response rate * Creators onboarded * Creator activation rate * Follow-up completion * Overall acquisition cost/conversion We care about results and activity, not simply hours worked. Important Please do not apply with a generic copy/paste proposal. In your application, tell us: 1. How many influencers/creators you have personally contacted in a typical month. 2. What platforms you have used for creator outreach. 3. Your best example of turning cold outreach into a successful relationship or collaboration. 4. How you would approach finding 500 relevant beauty creators. 5. What you believe is a realistic response/conversion rate for cold creator outreach. We will shortlist candidates based on their answers. Trial assignment Shortlisted candidates will receive a small paid test. The test will involve: * Finding a sample group of relevant creators * Explaining why each creator is a good fit * Writing an initial outreach message * Writing a follow-up message * Demonstrating how you would organize the outreach pipeline We are looking for someone who can eventually become a key part of our creator acquisition team. If you are a high-energy, commercially minded person who loves finding people, starting conversations and getting things done, we'd love to hear from you.
