Senior Partnerships Manager (Berlin, hybrid)

Tasks

What you'll do

• Own a portfolio of creator partnerships end to end: sourcing, vetting for brand fit, negotiating, briefing and measuring
• Build real relationships with creators in the segments our go-to-market depends on, and hold a high content bar
• Scale what already works, and test new partnership types where our audiences overlap
• Run campaigns and their budget, and show what each euro returned
• Own the affiliate programme: commissions, onboarding, and moving partners from signed up to recurring producer
• Report on signups, subscriptions and CAC on a regular cadence, and keep payments, CRM and tracking clean

Requirements

What you'll need

• 5+ years in influencer marketing or partnerships, running paid YouTube and Instagram creator deals yourself: sourcing, negotiating, renewing and cutting
• You judge creators on what they convert, not what they reach, and you've renegotiated or ended a deal because of CAC
• Hands-on affiliate experience: commission tiers, tracking, partner activation
• You can carry 60+ active partners, and tell a creator their work isn't good enough without losing them
• You've owned a partnerships budget and can defend how you spent it, with a CRM that's actually current

Nice to have

Experience in a creative tool, design, DTC or e-commerce business, ideally a subscription app

• Opening new channels or business and platform partnerships
• TikTok creator experience
• Additional languages are always a plus to communicate with the influencers in their own language, but not a must
• Paid amplification of creator content on Meta and YouTube

Tools you'll use

• HubSpot: our primary CRM for the partner network
• Metabase: reporting on spend and performance
• Claude: as much as you want, for exploring and building
• Notion: documentation
• Trudy and VidIQ: checking creator metrics

Interview process

• Intro call with your recruiter (30 min)
• Interview with the hiring manager (45 min)
• A take-home challenge , done in your own time
• Challenge presentation and discussion with the team
• Bar raiser interview (30 min)

You'll do well here if:

• You pick up problems nobody assigned you. If something's broken and no one has stepped up, you're the person who does
• You'd rather make the call and adjust than wait until you're certain. Speed is how we win
• You want to own a domain deeply enough that people rely on your judgement in it, whether or not you manage anyone
• You'll argue for your position and commit fully when the call goes the other way
• You care about details other people would call excessive. We hold a higher bar than most, on purpose
• You use AI constantly and still own every word you ship

Every new hire should raise the bar in some meaningful way, not just fill a seat. We hold to that, and it's why you'll be working with the most talented people from all over the world.

Benefits

• Real ownership: You own what you ship, end to end. Whether you lead a team or lead through craft, we back you to work on what matters most
• Work at the edge of AI and design: Kittl sits where AI, design and commerce meet. You'll be learning on the frontier, not reading about it
• Work-life balance: 30 vacation days a year, plus public holidays
• Hybrid working style: 3 days a week in our office in the heart of Prenzlauer Berg, the rest of the week from home
• Remote work: On top of that, work from anywhere in the world for up to 50 days (10 weeks) a year
• VESOP: Enrolment in our Virtual Employee Stock Option Plan. When Kittl grows in value, you share in it
• Lunch: Daily chef-prepared meals in the office
• Mobility: Your monthly BVG ticket, fully covered
• Health & fitness: Urban Sports Club M membership
• Learning & development: Annual L&D budget for your professional growth
• German classes: Online group courses at every level
• Hackathons: Quarterly hackathons to experiment with new ideas, push boundaries and build the next big thing
