Description
We’re looking for a culturally aware Brand Partnerships Manager to lead collaborations, partnerships, and PR. This role is about more than partnerships - it’s about shaping cultural presence. You’ll drive awareness, and brand heat by connecting with the right talent, communities, and creative voices.
This is a hands-on, proactive role. You won’t be waiting for inbound opportunities—you’ll be out in the world (and online), spotting what’s next and turning moments into both high-impact collaborations and upcoming talent opportunities.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify, develop, and secure strategic collaborations across fashion, music, and alternative subcultures
- Build and manage relationships with brands, partners, talent, stylists, agents, and key industry figures
- Identify and connect with culturally relevant talent aligned with the brand
- Lead VIP seeding, product placement, and custom looks for key moments (tours, performances, shoots, media / tv opportunities)
- Manage partnerships and projects end-to-end, from concept through to execution and reporting
- Own budgets and drive commercial outcomes across collaborations
- Act as the link between creative and product direction and commercial performance
- Ensure all activity aligns with brand calendar, values, tone, and long-term vision
- Create outreach materials, including decks and partnership proposals
- Work closely with marketing and social teams on influencer and talent partnerships
- Write and distribute press releases to secure global coverage
- Concept and execute PR moments, events, and activations from idea through to delivery
- Source and manage external PR agencies where required
- Lead / support on event execution, including on-site management
