About the Role

Talent Manager - Sports Creators

Location: London

Salary: £50,000 + Bonus + Benefits

 

We’re looking for a highly organised, commercially driven Talent Manager to join a growing sports management, content and activation agency.

The business represents a roster of world-class athletes and creators across endurance sport and performance-led disciplines — including triathlon, cycling, running and hybrid fitness — working with Olympic and World Champions as well as emerging talent shaping the future of the space.

 

This is a key hire within a small, ambitious agency environment.

 

You’ll need to be comfortable operating in a hands-on, fast-paced setting where no two days look the same, and where you’ll play a central role in both talent management and commercial growth.

 

We’re looking for someone who genuinely understands sport and creator culture — and where a passion for sport comes through clearly in your experience and CV.

 

The Role

As Talent Manager, you will lead relationships across both talent and brands — driving commercial opportunities while delivering best-in-class social and content-led campaigns.

Talent & Roster Growth

Identify, outreach to, and sign high-potential athletes and creators
Build strong, long-term relationships with talent, supporting their development and positioning
Curate a roster focused on quality, credibility, and long-term growth within endurance and performance sport
Brand Partnerships & Commercial Growth

Develop and nurture relationships with brands to unlock partnership opportunities
Pitch creator and social marketing strategies aligned to brand objectives (awareness, consideration, conversion)
Lead the development of proposals, pitch decks, and campaign concepts
Proactively drive new business across brand partnerships and social campaigns
Campaign & Client Management

Manage a roster of athletes and creators, owning partnerships end-to-end
Negotiate commercial terms, deliverables, and activation plans
Plan and execute campaigns across social, content, events, and brand collaborations
Ensure all campaigns are delivered on time, on brief, and in line with contractual obligations
Strategy & Agency Growth

Work closely with senior leadership to shape and evolve the agency’s offering
Contribute to overall business growth, bringing ideas and commercial opportunities
Deliver against KPIs across talent growth, campaign performance, and revenue


What We’re Looking For

5+ years’ experience in talent management, influencer marketing, social campaigns, or brand partnerships
Background in an influencer agency, social/comms agency, or talent management environment
Strong understanding of how to manage creators and deliver social-first campaigns
Proven experience securing and managing brand partnerships
Deep knowledge of social platforms, trends, and performance marketing
A genuine passion for sport — particularly endurance or performance sport — clearly demonstrated in your background
Confident communicator and negotiator with strong relationship-building skills
Highly organised, comfortable managing multiple campaigns simultaneously
Comfortable working in a small, fast-growing agency environment with a hands-on approach


What You’ll Get

£50,000 base salary
Discretionary performance bonus
Pension scheme
Enhanced parental leave
Ongoing training and development opportunities


Please get in touch today if you have the relevant experience.
