Role Overview

The Talent Manager owns and grows relationships with an assigned talent roster and actively recruits new creators to Mythic Talent. You're the primary advocate, strategist, and long-term partner for your talent, making sure they feel supported, valued, and aligned with both their own goals and Mythic's broader vision.

Success is measured by talent retention and new talent signings. The right person is relationship-driven, highly organized, proactive, and deeply invested in creators' long-term success.

Talent acquisition & roster growth

• Source, evaluate, and sign new talent aligned with Mythic's brand, values, and strategic priorities
• Evaluate prospects on growth trajectory, professionalism, brand safety, and long-term earning potential

• Lead onboarding so new talent gets a smooth, welcoming, well-structured start
• Track the creator landscape, emerging talent, and competitive representation activity

Reporting & accountability

• Keep visibility into talent health, deal flow, and coordinator performance across your roster
• Give department leadership regular updates on talent performance, pipeline growth, and signings
• Uphold Mythic's professional standards, confidentiality, exclusivity policies, and ethical guidelines

Additional duties may be assigned as needed to meet organizational needs.
