Influencer Relationship Executive - US

Vilgain s.r.o. • Los Angeles, CA

34d

About The Position

Influencer Relationship Executive – LA 🇺🇸
Vilgain is a European nutrition brand built on real ingredients and uncompromising standards. We recently launched in the US with Los Angeles as our proof-of-concept market, and we are looking for an Influencer Relationship Executive who is genuinely plugged into the LA fitness, health, wellness, and food scene — someone who knows the community, knows the creators, and knows how to build relationships that go beyond a gifting transaction.
This is not a sourcing or coordination role. We are looking for someone who can walk into a gym, a run club, or a food event and already know half the room. Your network is your most important asset in this position.

Requirements

• 2–5 years of experience in influencer marketing, talent partnerships, or creator relations
• An existing, active network within the LA fitness, health, wellness, or food community — this is non-negotiable
• You know people. Not just on social media — in real life, in the communities we want to be part of
• Strong relationship skills — people trust you, respond to you, and want to work with you
• Experience managing influencer partnerships end-to-end, including negotiation and performance tracking
• Deep understanding of Instagram and TikTok creator culture and what makes partnerships feel authentic
• Self-starter mentality — comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-moving early-stage environment

Nice To Haves

• Existing relationships with creators in the food, supplement, or sports nutrition space
• Experience with affiliate platforms or TikTok Shop creator programs
• Connections to LA-based run clubs, gyms, sports teams, or wellness communities
• Experience working with a brand during a market launch phase

Responsibilities

• Leverage existing connections in the LA fitness, health, wellness, and food community to identify and activate the right creator partners
• Build authentic, long-term relationships with influencers, athletes, creators, and brand ambassadors
• Represent Vilgain at community events, activations, gym partnerships, and cultural moments in LA
• Identify emerging voices and micro-communities before they hit mainstream radar
• Be the person creators want to work with — not just the brand that reaches out
• Own the end-to-end management of influencer and affiliate partnerships — from outreach through content delivery and performance review
• Negotiate partnership terms, gifting arrangements, and paid collaborations
• Coordinate product seeding, campaign activations, and event appearances
• Maintain a clear pipeline of active, warm, and prospective partners
• Work with the content and social team to ensure creator output aligns with brand direction
• Contribute to influencer strategy and help identify the right mix of partners for the US market
• Track campaign performance, audience quality, and partnership ROI
• Share intelligence on creators, communities, and cultural moments relevant to the brand
• Support TikTok Shop and social commerce creator integrations

Benefits

• Ground-floor opportunity — you will shape how Vilgain shows up in the US creator community
• Significant autonomy and the ability to build your own program, not inherit someone else's
• LA-based role with a culture rooted in fitness, food, and authentic community
• Product that stands on its own — natural ingredients, no artificial sweeteners, no compromises
