Athlete/Influencer Marketing Associate (Gym & Lifting)

New York, New York, United States

We're hiring a Social Media Obsessed Athlete Marketing Associate - Powerlifting & Gym Scene 🌟

Are you passionate about powerlifting, gym culture, and discovering the next big names in fitness? We’re looking for someone who truly understands the space—someone with an eye for emerging talent and the ability to help athletes grow their presence both online and offline.

If you’re immersed in social media, stay ahead of trends in the gym world, and have a genuine passion for building athlete brands, this is an opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of the fitness industry.

In this role, you’ll manage athlete relationships, scout rising powerlifting talent, and stay plugged into everything happening in the fitness community. 

What You’ll Be Doing:

Finding Influencers Who Get It:

  • Scouting Talent: They find influencers who vibe with the brand and its audience. They’re all about looking for creators who have strong engagement, real followers, and authentic content.
  • Staying Ahead of Trends: They’re always on the lookout for up-and-coming influencers and hot trends so they can keep campaigns fresh and relevant.

Planning & Launching Campaigns:

  • Contributing to the Strategy: They work with the marketing team to come up with campaign ideas that hit the mark. Whether it's a product drop or a viral moment, they make sure the campaign’s goals are clear.
  • Setting the Vibe: They give influencers the deets on what kind of content is needed (like key messaging or hashtags) while letting the influencers keep their unique style.

Handling Deals & Relationships:

  • Sliding Into DMs: They reach out to influencers, pitch collaboration ideas, and negotiate terms, ensuring both sides are on the same page about payment, content, and expectations.
  • Building Long-Term Bonds: They don’t just work with influencers once—they build lasting relationships that lead to future collabs and more opportunities.

Tracking the Vibes:

  • Monitoring the Campaign: They keep an eye on how campaigns are performing, checking stats like reach, likes, shares, and sales to see what’s working and what’s not.
  • Crunching Numbers: After the campaign ends, they analyze the data and figure out what went well, what could be better, and how to improve next time.

Content Approval:

  • Making Sure It’s Fire: They check the content before it goes live, making sure everything aligns with the brand’s vibe and feels authentic.
  • Collaborating on Ideas: They might help influencers brainstorm cool content ideas that will get people talking and sharing.

Managing the Budget:

  • Staying on Track: They keep an eye on the budget, making sure the money is spent in the best way possible and that influencers are getting paid fairly for their work.

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work:

  • Cross-Department Collabs: They work with other teams—like social, PR, creative, and product—to make sure the influencer campaign fits in with the brand’s overall plan

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
