Job Description
Are you a master negotiator with a keen eye for talent and a passion for digital trends? Career.zycto is seeking a highly motivated and results-driven Influencer Marketing & Media Negotiation Specialist to join our dynamic remote team. In this pivotal role, you will be instrumental in identifying, engaging, and securing partnerships with relevant influencers across various platforms, including but not limited to Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and niche blogs, to amplify brand messages and achieve client marketing objectives. This isn’t just about finding faces; it’s about strategically leveraging relationships and securing optimal media placements through skilled negotiation that delivers tangible results and maximizes reach.
As our specialist, you will take ownership of the full influencer campaign lifecycle, from initial research and comprehensive vetting of potential partners to crafting compelling outreach messages, robust contract negotiation, and developing detailed content briefs. You’ll ensure all agreements align with legal guidelines and campaign performance indicators. Your day-to-day will involve extensive communication with influencers, agencies, and internal stakeholders, meticulous planning, and a creative, data-driven approach to problem-solving. We’re looking for someone who can not only build rapport quickly but also deeply understand the nuances of various social media ecosystems and audience demographics to match the right influencer with the right campaign, ensuring authenticity and impact. This fully remote position offers the flexibility to work from your preferred environment, providing the autonomy to manage your schedule effectively while collaborating closely with a supportive team distributed across different time zones.
Your core responsibility will be to maximize return on investment (ROI) on all influencer collaborations, ensuring that every partnership is mutually beneficial and aligns perfectly with our clients’ brand identity and strategic marketing goals. This requires a strong analytical mindset to assess potential impact, a persuasive and articulate communication style to close deals efficiently, and a solid understanding of current market rates, industry best practices, and legal considerations in media agreements. You’ll be managing multiple campaigns simultaneously, from inception to post-campaign reporting, requiring exceptional organizational skills, a proactive approach, and the ability to prioritize effectively under pressure. We empower our team members to innovate, experiment with new strategies, and bring fresh ideas to the table, fostering an environment where your strategic insights can truly make a difference in shaping client success. If you’re eager to shape the future of digital marketing through powerful partnerships and impactful negotiations in a remote, dynamic setting, we encourage you to apply.
