About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Manager, Brand Activation to join our UK Brand Partnerships team. This is a hands‑on commercial role focused on onboarding new partners, growing account value, and supporting strong campaign delivery for brands across the UK and Europe. You’ll be responsible for qualifying, prioritizing and proactively building a pipeline of high‑potential partners. You’ll take full ownership of the sales cycle – from discovery, pitch and negotiation, through to signed agreement, onboarding and campaign management. You’ll also serve as a key business point of contact for EU affiliate platform partners, providing consultative support on how to maximize value from their LTK partnership. This role is ideal for someone who’s commercially driven, highly organized, and confident navigating multiple stakeholders – both internally and externally. Your familiarity with subscription‑based SaaS models, long‑term value nurturing, and consultative client relationships will be invaluable as we guide our partners through this next stage of creator marketing growth.

Partner Management & Account Growth

• Hit and exceed ambitious new business and growth targets, with clear accountability for revenue outcomes.
• Vet & prioritize brand inbound requests based on potential: run introductory discovery/demo calls, and support smooth onboarding of new brand partners.

• Lead outbound sales efforts by crafting and refining messaging and outreach strategies to engage high‑potential brand partners.
• Consistently identify and convert opportunities to increase partner investment and unlock new revenue streams.
• Partner with EU affiliate networks to act as the non‑technical point of contact, helping them understand LTK’s commercial value and how to grow through the platform.
• Drive sales across LTK revenue streams, including paid influencer collaborations, media, events, and commission‑based sales.
• Present demos, pitch proposals, campaign wrap‑ups and strategic recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.
• Accurately manage your pipeline and internal systems (e.g., HubSpot).
• Monitor, forecast, and report on sales performance at a weekly, monthly, and quarterly level.

Campaign Delivery & Execution Oversight

• Guide campaigns from brief to wrap, managing communication and handoffs across teams.
• Partner closely with Campaign Operations and Creator Success to ensure flawless execution.
• Ensure creator campaigns align with client expectations and reflect best‑in‑class delivery.
• Collaborate with Finance and Legal for timely billing, contracts, and onboarding requirements.
• Escalate blockers and troubleshoot issues to keep timelines and budgets on track.

Client Advisory & Internal Collaboration

• Serve as the day‑to‑day commercial point of contact for your accounts.
• Act as a trusted advisor to clients, helping them build successful long‑term strategies on LTK.
• Proactively share performance insights and product updates to maintain strong momentum.
• Identify emerging challenges or potential risks and flag early to internal stakeholders.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with Marketing, Creator Success and Ops teams to align on go‑to‑market motion, support materials, and new launches.

What you will bring to LTK

• 4–6 years in client‑facing roles such as sales, partnerships, or account management, ideally within digital marketing, brand marketing or the influencer space.
• A strong grasp of affiliate models and how influencer strategy connects to wider media and performance mix.
• Proven track record of driving net new business acquisition and account expansion, with examples of upselling or scaling existing partners.
• Experience selling SaaS or platform‑based environments is a plus, ideally within creator tech, performance marketing, or social commerce.
• A proactive, highly organized problem‑solver who takes ownership and follows through.
• Strong relationship builder, confident presenting insights and recommendations to clients.
• Comfortable working cross‑functionally with campaign, operations, legal and marketing teams.
• Fluent in English (other European languages a plus).
• A mindset focused on seizing opportunities and moving with urgency.
• Dedication to fierce prioritization and operational excellence.
• Adaptability to a dynamic, fast‑moving environment.
• A growth mindset and openness to feedback.
