Creator & UGC Manager

• Negotiate and close creator deals within our guardrails: per-video rates, deliverable counts, revision rounds, turnaround times, usage rights, and Meta whitelisting / partnership-ad permissions

• Issue contracts and keep terms consistent across the roster so the program stays predictable as it scales

• Turn each brief into a clear, specific ask for each creator: what to shoot, how many cuts, what the deadline is, and what "approved" means, so first submissions come back usable

• Own payments and rights tracking: who's been paid, what we're cleared to run, and for how long

• Run the day-to-day of a large active roster: scheduling, deadlines, follow-ups, and the back-and-forth that keeps creators shipping on time

• Route every submission through our review process, send creators clear revision notes, and get approved videos filed and handed to paid media

• Keep the creator pipeline tracker current and share a short weekly status: creators added, videos in flight, videos shipped, what's blocked

• Feed performance learnings from paid media back into who we recruit, who we keep, and how we structure the next round of asks

• Target: 50+ ad-ready creator videos delivered per month to start, scaling from there

• 8+ years running creator or UGC programs for a DTC brand, agency, or creator marketplace, with real volume behind you (brand-side preferred)

• A natural recruiter: you know where good creators are, how to reach them, and how to tell in one call whether they'll deliver

• Comfortable negotiating and closing deals: rates, rights, and deliverables, with a bias toward clean, repeatable terms over one-off exceptions

• Organized at scale: you can run dozens of creators and deadlines at once without things slipping

• A clear communicator: asks creators actually follow, feedback they can act on

• Fluent in what performs on Meta and TikTok, so your recruiting and your asks are tuned to paid results, not vanity metrics

• Comfortable in a regulated category where claims get reviewed (health, wellness, or similar experience is a plus)

• Self-directed; you can run a part-time schedule without someone checking in on you

• A fast-growing brand in a category where real, evidence-based content stands out

• A creative-first team where creator content directly drives paid performance

• A working program and a clear playbook, so your time goes into growing it, not building it

• Flexible, remote, part-time, with room to grow the scope if it's working

• Type: Independent contractor, part-time

• Hours: ~[15–20] per week, flexible, with availability for a weekly sync

• Location: Remote, U.S. time zones preferred

• Compensation: $6-10k/month, bonus potential

• You want to oversee rather than do. This role is in the DMs, the contracts, and the follow-ups every week.

• You've never sourced and closed creators yourself, end to end.

• You've only done B2B, or only done organic social with no paid performance lens.

• Send a short note that includes the size and output of creator programs you've run, and 3–5 UGC ads from creators you sourced and managed, with results if you have them.
