United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I am an influencer talent manager with over three years' experience managing creator lifecycles, recruiting high-potential talent, and negotiating brand deals for global and local partners. I consistently serve as the primary point of contact for negotiation, scheduling and communication, ensuring campaigns run smoothly from pitch to delivery.
My background includes successful sourcing and pitching that secured brand partnerships, plus streamlining project workflows and booking calendars to achieve 100% deadline adherence. I also have experience researching and placing clients on podcasts and managing cross-cultural client rosters across English, Italian and Spanish markets.
Complementing my agency work, I have taught English for Cambridge exam preparation, provided private language tuition, and translated subtitles, demonstrating strong communication, organisational and intercultural skills that add value to talent management and campaign execution.
