Role Overview
Pubity Group is looking for a Talent Manager to identify, attract, and place talent across both commercial and editorial opportunities, spanning our full brand portfolio, including Pubity, Fluffy, OFC and our wider Shows and Studio output.
This is a dual-facing role. On the commercial side, you'll source and book talent for brand partnership campaigns, sponsored content, and client-facing activations. On the editorial side, you'll identify and develop talent for original programming, social formats, hosted content, and shows development, working closely with the Shows and Creative teams to build a strong, diverse talent pipeline.
You'll build and manage a network of on-screen presenters, creators, cultural voices, and subject matter experts, ensuring Pubity Group always has the right people for the right opportunity, at the right time.
Key Responsibilities
Talent Sourcing & Pipeline Development Proactively identify and build relationships with talent suited to both commercial campaigns and editorial programming, including presenters, creators, influencers, journalists, and cultural voices. Maintain a live, well-organised talent database covering availability, rates, representation, areas of expertise, and previous work with Pubity Group. Stay ahead of emerging talent across social platforms, entertainment, sport, culture, and news, surfacing names before they become obvious choices. Build a pipeline that supports our growth across UK, US, and international markets, with geographic and demographic breadth across the roster.
Commercial Talent Booking Work closely with Brand Strategy, Client Services, and Planning & Activation teams to understand campaign briefs and identify talent who can authentically deliver against commercial objectives. Manage the end-to-end booking process, from initial approach and negotiation through to contracts, usage rights, and briefing. Present recommendations to clients and internal stakeholders with clear rationale, audience data, and relevant case studies. Negotiate fees and deal terms with talent representatives, balancing client budgets with fair market rates. Track performance post-campaign, feeding results back into future talent strategy and client recommendations.

The business is never scrambling at the last minute, because the pipeline is always warm.
