  • Proven proficiency across Tik Tok and Instagram ecosystems, with a strong understanding of short-form video content

  • Strong relationship-building skills, with the confidence to communicate directly with creators and partners
  • Solid written communication and administrative competence
  • An operational mindset with strong attention to detail

Role 1 — Affiliate & Community Management (Tik Tok Shop Experience Required)

  • Hands‑on experience with Tik Tok Shop Seller Center and/or affiliate platforms such as Refunnel
  • A track record of creating or briefing high‑performing short‑form video content

Role 2 — Creator Discovery & Partnerships (Tik Tok Shop Experience Not Essential)

  • 1–2 years of experience in influencer outreach, talent sourcing, or PR
  • Confident and proactive communicator, comfortable managing outreach pipelines and building relationships from scratch
  • Highly organised with strong logistical and administrative capability
