Brand Partnerships Manager Jobs in California

Brand Partnerships & Sponsorship Sales/Talent Agent For Creators

MDNGHT - Encino, Los Angeles, CA
Commission-Based | In-Person / Hybrid

About MDNGHT

MDNGHT is a Los Angeles-based creator management, brand partnerships, events, and entertainment company working with established digital creators across platforms including TikTok, YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and other major social platforms. It is one part of our social media conglomerate.

We already have what many agencies spend years trying to build: access to a strong roster of creators and talent.

We are now looking for more experienced Brand Partnerships & Sponsorship Sales Agents who can help us continue expanding the other side of the business, developing relationships with brands, agencies, marketing teams, and sponsorship partners and bringing new opportunities to our creators.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who already works in influencer marketing, sponsorship sales, talent representation, advertising, experiential marketing, or brand partnerships and has an existing network of relationships they can bring to the table.

We provide the creators. You help bring the brands.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

You will not be starting from scratch trying to find talent to represent.

MDNGHT already works with established content creators and has an active creator ecosystem in Los Angeles.

Our Encino operation includes:

• A large content house used by creators for filming, collaborations, and productions
• A dedicated studio space for filming, productions, livestreams, etc.
• Access to well established digital creators and influencers with millions of followers
• Live events and creator activations
• Sponsorship and brand integration opportunities
• A growing network within the Los Angeles creator and entertainment community

Our goal is to significantly expand the number and size of brand partnerships we are bringing to our creators.

We are looking for someone who sees our creator roster and infrastructure as something they can immediately monetize through their relationships and sales experience.

The Role

You will focus primarily on sourcing, pitching, negotiating, and closing brand deals, sponsorships, partnerships, and activations for MDNGHT and the creators we work with.

This is a relationship-driven business development position.

We are especially interested in candidates who already have relationships with:

• Brands
• Advertising agencies
• Influencer marketing agencies
• Media agencies
• PR agencies
• Brand partnership teams
• Creator marketing teams
• Experiential marketing companies
• Sponsorship buyers
• Marketing executives
• Talent and entertainment partners

Responsibilities

• Source new brand deals, sponsorships, integrations, and partnership opportunities for MDNGHT creators.
• Leverage your existing network of brand, agency, and marketing relationships to generate opportunities.
• Build new relationships with brands, agencies, and decision-makers.
• Pitch MDNGHT creators for relevant campaigns and partnerships.
• Identify creators within our network who are a strong fit for specific brands and campaigns.
• Negotiate campaign pricing, usage rights, deliverables, exclusivity, timelines, and other commercial terms.
• Develop long-term relationships with brands and agencies rather than relying solely on one-off campaigns.

Who We're Looking For

The ideal candidate already understands how the creator economy and brand partnership ecosystem works.

You may currently or previously have worked at:

• A talent agency
• Creator management company
• Influencer marketing agency
• Advertising agency
• Experiential marketing agency
• Creator platform
• Media company
• Sponsorship agency
• Brand partnerships department
• Digital entertainment company

We are particularly interested in someone who can come into the role with existing relationships and an existing network, rather than someone learning sponsorship sales for the first time.

Compensation

This is a commission-based position with uncapped earning potential.

Compensation is tied directly to the brand partnerships and sponsorship revenue you generate.

This structure is particularly well suited for an experienced salesperson or agent who already has relationships in the industry and wants access to a growing roster of creators without having to build the talent side of the business themselves.

Specific commission structure and deal economics will be discussed during the interview process based on experience, relationships, and the type of business you are capable of generating.

There is significant upside for someone who can consistently bring meaningful brand opportunities to our creator roster.

Location

Our team is based in Encino, Los Angeles.

We operate a creator content house and have access to dedicated studio and production facilities in Los Angeles.

We are open to discussing a hybrid structure for an exceptional candidate with a strong existing network, although being located in Los Angeles and able to participate in meetings, creator events, productions, and activations is highly preferred.

• Your experience with brand partnerships, sponsorships, or influencer marketing
• The types of brands or agencies you have worked with
• Whether you currently have relationships with brand or agency decision-makers
