Health & Wellness brand - client-side role
London (2 office days)
Ignite are delighted to be partnering with one of the UK’s fastest-growing Health & Wellness brands. Having already achieved impressive growth since launching, the business is now scaling towards £50m+ in revenue over the next three years and is continuing to expand its product range, customer base and retail presence.
They’re now looking to hire a Influencer Manager to build the brand's creator and advocacy ecosystem from scratch.
You’ll be responsible for identifying and connecting with the right people across different communities - from nano creators and ambassadors to health experts, fitness professionals and tastemakers - then building genuine, long-term relationships that help make the brand part of everyday conversations.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who has built a creator, ambassador or community network from the ground up and wants to take full ownership of a new channel, with the opportunity to help shape and grow a future team around it.
What you’ll be doing:
- Build the brand's creator, ambassador and advocacy ecosystem from scratch
- Identify and connect with creators, experts, tastemakers and key people across health, fitness, nutrition, wellness and lifestyle communities
- Build genuine, long-term relationships with creators and community members
- Manage partnerships from initial outreach through to negotiation, gifting, briefing and ongoing relationship management
- Develop different creator and ambassador groups, from nano creators through to larger partners
- Work closely with existing teams and networks to identify opportunities and build awareness
- Bring the brand closer to relevant communities and increase word-of-mouth advocacy
- Help bring the customer community under the ownership of this role, including Facebook community activity
- Track activity and performance, while building a clear strategy for the future growth of the channel
What skills do you need to have to be considered?
- Experience working for a fast-growing scale-up or challenger brand, ideally within Health & Wellness, FMCG, nutrition, fitness or lifestyle
- Proven experience building a creator, ambassador or community ecosystem from scratch
- Strong relationship-building skills, with the ability to build genuine, long-term connections
- A strong understanding of different creator and consumer communities across health, fitness, nutrition, wellness or lifestyle
- Comfortable managing partnerships, negotiations, gifting, activity and performance
- Commercially minded, organised and confident taking ownership of a new channel
- Experience working with agencies or external partners would be beneficial, but this role is best suited to someone who has personally built and managed a UK network themselves
In return for everything you can bring, the business can offer you:
- Hybrid working, with a minimum of 2 days a week in the office
- Flexible start times, with core hours of 10am-4pm
- Discretionary bonus of up to 30%, depending on eligibility and performance
