Creator Manager/Strategist Job at Rise at Seven Ltd in New York

The Role

At Rise at Seven, we believe creators shape culture - drive demand and discovery. The 3 most powerful marketing musts.

And we're building campaigns that put them at the centre of every brand conversation. As Creator Manager/Strategist, you'll be the engine behind our influencer and creator-led activations: scouting talent, managing partnerships, and delivering campaigns that fuel demand and discovery and brand love across social platforms.

This isn't just about posting content. It's about spotting the right voices, strategy behind it, negotiating the right deals, and delivering the right creative - turning scroll-stopping moments into measurable results. If you understand the world of search, on social - thats a bonus. But if not, we offer training. We work with creators to drive discovery content, optimised for search and rankings. So much so we was recently labelled as one of the best agencies to work with by a creator for driving rankings and visibility.

You'll work closely with the Social, SEO, PR, and Creative teams to make sure every creator collaboration aligns with strategy, sparks conversation, and drives performance.
