This role: Shop/Sharks power a new way SharkNinja approaches eCommerce.

- Run a structured selection process and extend targeted invitations with differentiated, target-tier commission structures
- Issue product invitations with time-bound response windows and a disciplined follow-up cadence; educate creators and fast-follow with samples
- Drive posts toward aggressive early-view and engagement targets; trigger performance-based paid amplification behind winning posts, with creators continuing to earn commission
- Manage the full CRM pipeline — outreach, SLAs, samples, go-lives, performance — and recommend which creators to graduate, boost, or exit
- Use AI to scale personalized outreach and reporting; present pipeline health and market learnings to leaders
What you'll bring:
- Education: Must be currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, or have graduated within the past year
- Native TikTok fluency: creator ecosystem, trends, and what converts; eCommerce seller/affiliate platform experience a strong plus
- A hunter's mentality — high-volume, personalized outreach with relentless follow-up — plus disciplined CRM habits
- Experience managing creator or influencer campaigns end-to-end — briefing, product seeding and sample logistics, content review and approvals, go-live, and reporting
- Strong analytical instincts — comfortable with social listening, sentiment, and monthly KPI reporting that turns creator data into decisions
- Demonstrated experience using AI tools to scale outreach or analysis, with examples you can speak to
- Experience at a social platform, beauty/prestige brand, consumer products company, talent agency, or high-velocity social commerce team is a strong plus
- Strong communication skills
