Growth · Remote - India · Full-time
Brand Partnerships Manager
Own our brand side: reach out to brands, onboard them, and guide them through every deal on Guapd.
Guapd is a newly-launched platform that makes brand and creator deals simple. Brands and creators run the entire deal, from offer and negotiation to deliverables and payment, in one place, without agency markups or WhatsApp chaos. We launched this week and already have 500+ creators on board, and now we're bringing brands on.
This is our first business hire, and it's a rigorous, target-driven role. You'll work directly with the founders and own how brands discover, join, and succeed on Guapd. It's a wear-many-hats role for someone who wants to be early, move fast, and build from the ground up.
What you will do
- Hit daily, weekly, and monthly targets for reaching out to and onboarding brands
- Creatively find brands that run creator campaigns, using AI tools and unconventional research to build strong target lists
- Reach out across email, LinkedIn, and other channels with creative, personalised outreach that gets replies
- Onboard brands and walk them through their first campaign on Guapd
- Support brands from first offer to completed, paid deal, as their go-to person
- Help deals go through end-to-end, supporting the flow between brands and creators
- Feed front-line insights back to the founders to sharpen our product and pitch
What we are looking for
- A track record of hitting targets, and the drive to thrive in a rigorous, fast-paced role
- AI-native: you use AI tools fluently to find brands, research prospects, and craft outreach faster and better than most
- Excellent written and spoken English, and comfortable speaking the language of brand and marketing teams
- Creativity in finding and reaching brands, you don't just work a list, you invent new ways in
- Experience in sales, business development, partnerships, or influencer/brand marketing, or the hunger to prove yourself early-career
- Comfort with cold outreach and resilience to "no"
- Ability to talk credibly to brand marketing managers and build trust fast
- Strong organisation to manage many brand relationships at once
- Bonus: familiarity with the Indian creator/influencer marketing space
