Influencer & Advocacy Manager

TrustedHousesitters is a fast-growing, direct-to-consumer marketplace redefining pet care and travel. Our platform connects a thriving global community of pet lovers through a unique, trust-based membership model. We are on a mission to become the world’s most loved travel solution for pet people, fueled by a passionate community of nearly 280,000 members. As we scale, our focus is shifting toward the US market.

The Role: As an Influencer & Advocacy Manager, you will not simply 'manage influencers' but act as a strategic architect to build an engine of trust and advocacy across the Atlantic. This role is strategic, creative, and US-focused, requiring a 'head up' creator lead who understands that our product requires nuanced, high-quality storytelling rather than a simple product demo. You will own the end-to-end creator lifecycle, acting as the glue between Brand, Paid Social, and our advocacy community, turning one-off partnerships into long-term brand advocacy.

Job Requirements: You will lead our US-focused strategy, source and manage high-performing US creators who align with our values, and navigate the complexities of US talent agents, managers, and usage rights. You will also formalize the process for sourcing and licensing User-Generated Content, lead the optimization of our advocacy platforms, and partner with Paid Social on whitelisting/licensing. Additionally, you will be responsible for the strategy and execution of influencer-focused events and negotiate contracts to ensure every pound spent delivers value.

Benefits: We offer a competitive salary and bonus, fully remote work, meaningful equity, a discretionary 10% annual bonus scheme, 25 days holiday annually plus bank holidays and Christmas to New Year closure, a pension scheme, premium TrustedHousesitters pet owner and sitter membership, and more. Our team have an unlimited housesitting allowance, can work remotely from their sits, and are eligible to £500 per year towards travel costs. We also provide £200 annually towards home office equipment, access to co-working spaces, a MacBook, coverage for adoption fees for a rescue pet, and health insurance plans.

Applications Details: We value your time and aim for a transparent, efficient hiring process, including a talent screen, a hiring manager session, a practical task, and a final coffee chat. We may use AI tools to support parts of the hiring process.
