Role Purpose

The Talent Manager is responsible for managing the delivery of talent and creator activity across ASOS campaigns, always‐on content, Brand Heat moments, VIP, gifting and social‐first activations. This role sits between strategy and execution, turning the Talent Lead's direction into clear plans, strong relationships and high‐quality delivery. It ensures talent activity is culturally relevant, commercially connected, operationally smooth and aligned to ASOS's role as The Stylist.

Why this role matters

ASOS needs talent activity that feels intentional, distinctive and platform‐native, not disconnected or purely transactional. The Talent Manager helps ensure the right people are connected to the right moments, with the right brief, product, usage, channel plan and follow‐through. This is a hands‐on role for someone who understands creators, fashion, social platforms and cultural relevance, while also being highly organised, commercially aware and confident managing multiple workstreams at pace.
