About TapLab
TapLab is the leading educational talent management and marketing agency. We represent the creators behind StudyTok — the students, tutors and educators shaping how Gen Z learns — and connect them with the ed-tech and student-focused brands that want to reach that audience authentically.
The role
We're hiring a Talent Manager to look after a portfolio of our creators — being their advocate, their strategist, and the person who picks up the phone when something needs sorting.
You'll own the relationship end to end: understanding where each creator wants their career to go, sourcing and negotiating the brand deals that get them there, and making sure every campaign we deliver is one both sides want to repeat. It's part commercial, part creative, part duty of care. Many of our creators are young and building something for the first time, so the job is as much about protecting them as it is about monetising them.
What you'll do
- Manage a roster of creators as their day-to-day point of contact — regular check-ins, career planning, and honest advice on brand fit, content direction and long-term positioning
- Source and close brand partnerships, from inbound briefs to proactive outreach across ed-tech, education, student services and lifestyle
- Negotiate deals — rates, deliverables, usage rights, exclusivity and timelines — and hold the line on what your talent is worth
- Run campaigns from brief to invoice: contracts, creative feedback, deadlines, approvals, reporting and payment chasing
- Track performance across TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, and turn the numbers into case studies and a stronger pitch for the next deal
- Scout new talent and help grow a roster we're proud of
- Support our creator events in London and internationally
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
Essential
- 1–3 years in talent management, influencer marketing, social media or a closely related commercial role — agency-side experience is a plus but not a must
- Fluent in creator culture: you understand TikTok natively, know what makes content perform, and can spot a creator with real potential before the numbers show it
- Confident negotiating and comfortable talking money without flinching
- Genuinely organised — you'll be running a lot of moving parts across a lot of inboxes at once
- Excellent written and verbal communication; you can write a persuasive pitch and a firm follow-up with equal ease
- Sound judgement and discretion — you'll be handling creators' careers, contracts and, at times, their stress
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Nice to have
- Existing brand or agency contacts in ed-tech, education or the student market
- Experience with contracts, invoicing or basic campaign reporting
- Familiarity with the UK student/education landscape
- A track record of growing your own audience on social
You'll do well here if you're proactive, unbothered by ambiguity, and happy in a small team where the job description is a starting point rather than a boundary.
What we offer
- Base salary of £12,000/year + uncapped commission on deals you source
- Remote & flexible working
- This is not a full-time position. You are free to work on other projects on the side.
