How to Get Visa Sponsorship as a Brand Partnerships Manager
Target companies with established visa programs
Large media companies, consumer tech brands, and entertainment studios sponsor Brand Partnerships Managers regularly. Focus your search on employers with dedicated HR and legal teams, they have the infrastructure to handle H-1B sponsorship without friction.
Frame your degree as a specialty occupation match
USCIS requires a specific degree field tied to the role. A marketing, communications, business, or advertising degree maps cleanly. If your degree is in an unrelated field, document how it applies to the specific functions of brand partnership work.
Build a portfolio of measurable partnership outcomes
Sponsoring employers want proof that you deliver results. Quantify past campaign performance, deal sizes managed, and revenue impact. Concrete numbers make the case that your skills are specialized and not easily replaceable by a domestic hire.
Understand the H-1B lottery timing and plan around it
H-1B registrations open in March with a lottery in late March and a filing window starting April 1. If you miss one cycle, you wait a full year. Start employer conversations by October to ensure sponsorship decisions are made well before the registration deadline.
Consider O-1A if you have industry recognition
Brand Partnerships Managers with speaking credits, published work, awards, or documented influence in their industry may qualify for the O-1A visa. It has no lottery and no cap, making it a strong alternative if H-1B selection is not guaranteed.
Negotiate sponsorship explicitly before accepting an offer
Many employers will sponsor but only if the candidate raises it. Bring up visa needs after demonstrating your value in the interview process. Waiting until the offer stage gives you the strongest leverage to secure a clear sponsorship commitment in writing.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does a Brand Partnerships Manager role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, in most cases. USCIS requires that the position normally require a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field. Brand Partnerships Manager roles typically require a degree in marketing, business, communications, or advertising, which satisfies the specialty occupation standard. Roles where any degree is accepted regardless of field are at higher risk of a Request for Evidence.
Which employers sponsor Brand Partnerships Managers for H-1B visas?
Sponsors are concentrated in tech platforms, consumer goods companies, entertainment studios, and digital media agencies. Companies that run large affiliate, influencer, or co-marketing programs tend to hire at volume and have established sponsorship processes. Browse current sponsored openings on Migrate Mate, which filters specifically for visa-sponsoring employers in this category.
What degree do I need for H-1B sponsorship as a Brand Partnerships Manager?
A bachelor's degree in marketing, business administration, communications, or advertising is the strongest foundation. A degree in an adjacent field like psychology or economics can work if you can draw a direct line to the role's functions. A general arts or unrelated STEM degree creates more risk and may prompt USCIS to question whether the position truly requires a specialized degree.
Can I get sponsored on an O-1 visa for Brand Partnerships roles?
Yes, the O-1A is a viable path for Brand Partnerships Managers who have built a recognizable professional profile. Qualifying evidence includes keynote speaking, published industry articles, awards, documented leadership of high-profile campaigns, or a track record of deal-making at scale. Unlike the H-1B, the O-1A has no annual cap and no lottery, so it can be filed at any point in the year.
How competitive is H-1B sponsorship for marketing and partnerships roles compared to technical roles?
Marketing and partnerships roles face the same H-1B lottery odds as any other category, roughly 25 to 30 percent selection in recent years. However, they face more RFE risk post-selection because USCIS scrutinizes whether the role truly requires a specialized degree. Employers with a history of approvals in this occupation and a strong job description tied to specific degree requirements tend to have better outcomes.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Brand Partnerships Manager jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
