Job Description

Operations Manager (Influencer & Creator Business)

Mythic Media | In-person | Full-Time | $36,000–$60,000/year | Shelby Twp, MI

About Mythic Media

Mythic Media is an influencer monetization and management company that combines brand partnerships with high-level content strategy. We help creators grow their content, reach new audiences, land partnerships, and increase revenue.

Think of us as a hybrid between:

  • An influencer agency
  • A content strategy consultancy
  • And a hands-on growth partner

We work closely with creators not just as service providers, but as business partners—helping them explore new strategies, revenue streams, and opportunities beyond traditional brand deals.

This includes:

  • Improving content performance
  • Expanding monetization (brand deals, affiliates, new formats)
  • Identifying new ways to grow their audience and business

We’re a small, fast-moving team focused on execution, results, and building a new type of creator business.

The Role

We’re hiring an Operations Manager to run the day-to-day execution of the business.

Your job is simple (but high ownership): 

Make sure everything gets done, nothing falls through the cracks, and the business runs smoothly without constant oversight.

You’ll work directly with the founder and take ownership over client delivery, influencer operations, and internal systems.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

1. Client Operations (Agency Work)

  • Manage timelines, deliverables, and approvals
  • Coordinate research, content creation, and publishing
  • Communicate with clients day-to-day
  • Ensure all work is delivered on time and at a high standard

2. Influencer Operations (Creator Management)

  • Monitor inbound messages (Instagram, TikTok, email, etc.)
  • Identify and track brand deal opportunities
  • Manage communication and follow-ups with brands
  • Keep all deal conversations organized

3. Brand Outreach Execution

  • Send outbound emails/DMs to potential brand partners
  • Build and maintain outreach lists
  • Track responses and manage follow-ups

4. Execution of Content & Ideas

  • Take high-level ideas from the founder and turn them into:
  • Organized briefs
  • Task lists
  • Execution plans
  • Coordinate with team members (VA, intern, contractors) to get things done

5. Mythic Media Content & Case Studies

This is a critical part of the role.

  • Track and capture key “wins” across clients:
  • Brand deals
  • High-performing content
  • Campaign results
  • Turn those wins into:
  • Case studies
  • Social media posts (LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.)
  • Educational content (carousels, breakdowns)
  • Help showcase the company’s results and expertise publicly

You won’t be responsible for all creative direction, but you will ensure ideas are executed, and results are documented

6. Client Reporting & Communication

  • Prepare and send monthly client updates
  • Clearly communicate:
  • Results and wins
  • Work completed
  • Next steps and strategy direction

Your communication should make clients feel confident, informed, and excited about progress

7. Systems & Organization

  • Maintain simple systems (ClickUp, Google Sheets, etc.)
  • Track tasks, deadlines, outreach, and deals
  • Ensure nothing falls behind
  • Continuously improve workflows
  • Identify opportunities to improve efficiency through better systems, automation, and use of tools (including AI)

What You Won’t Be Responsible For:

  • Closing brand deals
  • High-level business strategy
  • Being the primary creative strategist

This role is about execution, ownership, and organization

What Success Looks Like:

  • All client work is delivered on time without founder involvement
  • Creator inboxes are consistently managed, and opportunities are surfaced
  • Brand outreach is happening weekly without reminders
  • Wins are consistently captured and turned into content
  • Clients receive clear, professional monthly updates
  • The business runs smoothly without constant oversight

If something breaks, you catch it before it becomes a problem

How You’ll Be Measured:

  • Client work delivered on time and with minimal revisions
  • Inbox and brand opportunities consistently managed
  • Weekly outreach volume completed and tracked
  • Number of wins captured and turned into content
  • Client satisfaction and retention
  • Overall smoothness of operations (fewer issues over time)

What a Typical Week Looks Like:

  • Reviewing client deliverables and ensuring deadlines are met
  • Managing inbound brand inquiries and tracking opportunities
  • Sending and following up on brand outreach
  • Coordinating with team members (VA, intern) on execution
  • Turning recent wins into case studies or social content
  • Preparing or sending client updates
  • Identifying gaps or issues and solving them proactively

How We Work

  • Fast-paced and execution-focused
  • High ownership, low micromanagement
  • We value speed, clarity, and results over perfection
  • We solve problems quickly instead of overanalyzing
  • Everyone is expected to take initiative
  • We are constantly looking for ways to improve efficiency, simplify workflows, and leverage tools (including AI) to move faster and operate smarter

Who This Is Perfect For:

  • Extremely organized and detail-oriented
  • Proactive and takes ownership
  • Strong communicator (written + verbal)
  • Comfortable managing multiple moving parts
  • Enjoys turning chaos into structure
  • Thinks in terms of outcomes and results (not just tasks)
  • Actively looks for ways to take on more responsibility and improve how the business operates over time
  • Interested in leveraging tools (including AI) to increase efficiency, automate tasks, and improve workflows

This Is NOT For You If:

  • You need constant direction or supervision
  • You struggle with follow-through
  • You avoid responsibility when things get messy
  • You prefer doing isolated tasks instead of managing systems

Why This Role Matters:

This role is critical to the growth of Mythic Media.

You will be the person who:

  • Keeps the business running
  • Enables creators to grow and monetize
  • Helps turn ideas into real execution and results

If you do this well, you will have a direct impact on the growth of both the company and the creators we work with.

Must Have:

  • Experience working in an agency, startup, or creator business
  • Familiarity with TikTok, Instagram, YouTube
  • Experience with outreach, CRM systems, or reporting
  • Ability to translate results into clear, compelling content

Growth Opportunity:

This role can grow into a Head of Operations / COO-type position as Mythic Media scales.
