Talent Manager

HMG is a leading talent management and influencer marketing agency headquartered in Austin, TX. We help creators turn passion into partnerships, striking the balance between authenticity and marketability with tailored growth strategy that sets them up for long-term success. We’re growing fast and building out our team on the ground in New York, and we’re looking for people who can help us hold our standard and take things to the next level.

We’re looking for an experienced Talent Manager based in New York City who can make an impact from day one and be HMG’s in-person presence in the city.

What you’ll do:

• Identify, evaluate, and recruit prospective influencer talent, including expanding HMG’s NYC-based roster
• Serve as the primary manager for assigned creators, building campaign strategy and deliverable plans
• Deepen relationships across the existing roster and the wider creator market
• Source, structure, and negotiate brand partnerships end to end
• Strengthen HMG’s existing NYC brand, agency, and PR relationships in person through meetings, events, and fashion weeks
• Advise creators on positioning, brand alignment, and long-term career strategy
• Dig into deal and campaign performance data to sharpen how HMG prices and pitches
• Represent HMG in negotiations and conversations with brands, agencies, and talent
• Play a key role in HMG’s growing NYC team
• Flag what’s broken in our processes and systems so we can fix it

What we’re looking for:

• 2+ years of experience in influencer talent management
• An established network in the NYC creator, brand, and agency scene
• A track record of negotiating and closing deals
• A strong eye for creators with the “x” factor, and sound instincts for which brands actually fit them
• A highly organized self-starter. You track your own follow-ups and deadlines without anyone reminding you, and you move on decisions without waiting to be told
• Sharp written communication. Most of this job happens over email, and how you write is how HMG reads
• Comfortable with tech tools and systems. We run on HubSpot and a number of proprietary tools, so adopting quickly matters, as does flagging what could work better
• Genuinely enthusiastic about the creator economy!
