Job Description

Position: Influencer Partnerships Executive Open Positions: 1 Location: Bengaluru or Gurugram (In-Office) Type: Full-time Experience: 0–2 years About Us Alike is building the world’s first truly unified travel platform, combining AI intelligence and peer trust to bring together the fragmented journey of discovering, planning, booking, and sharing travel. Powered by our modular Infinity platform and AI twin “Eia”, Alike brings together travellers and creators to deliver a more personalised and unified travel experience. The Role We’re not hiring someone to send DMs and forward spreadsheets. We’re hiring someone who can take a creator from “never heard of Alike” to “genuinely excited to work with Alike” — and keep them there. As our Influencer Partnerships Executive, you’ll own the full creator lifecycle, start to finish: finding the right people, starting the conversation, getting the deal done, making the collaboration happen, and keeping the relationship alive long after the content goes live. You’ll be sourcing and managing creators across three very different worlds: our UGC shoots, our travel podcast Beyond The Grid (BTG), and commercial collabs across our Holidays (domestic and international) and Global City Pass products. Same skill, three very different pitches — which is what makes this fun. What You’ll Actually Be Doing You won’t be doing this solo — the team is there for the tricky calls, especially on contracts and rates. 1. Find the Right People (Sourcing) Research and shortlist creators who actually fit — UGC-friendly travellers, podcast-worthy storytellers for BTG, and creators whose audience matches our Holidays and City Pass campaigns. Build out a living database of who’s who in travel content. 2. Start the Conversation (Outreach) Reach out, pitch Alike in a way that doesn’t sound like a template, and be the friendly first face of the brand for every creator you contact. 3. Build the Relationship (Engaging & Nurturing) Actually get to know the creators you work with — their content style, their audience, what they care about. The best collabs come from real relationships, not one-off transactions. www.alike.io 4. Get the Deal Done (Contracting) Coordinate deliverables, timelines and rates, and help manage agreements with the team’s support. You’ll run the process; we’ll help you close it right. 5. Make It Happen (Activation & Management) Be the point of contact through delivery — coordinating shoot logistics for UGC, guest logistics for BTG episodes, and campaign briefs for Holidays/City Pass collabs. 6. Keep Them Coming Back (Long-Term Nurturing) Follow up after the campaign, close the loop, and keep your best creators warm for the next one. A great partnership doesn’t end when the content goes live. Is This You? No “3 years in influencer marketing” nonsense here. We just want to know: are you someone who can turn a cold DM into a real relationship? You might be a great fit if: You’re not scared of reaching out to strangers — cold DMs, cold emails, whatever it takes. You’re organised enough to keep track of 30 different conversations at 30 different stages without dropping the ball. You actually like the creator economy — you know the difference between a good travel Reel and a great one, and you have opinions about it. You communicate well, in writing and out loud — you’ll be representing Alike in every message you send. You think in relationships, not just transactions — you’d rather have 10 creators who love working with Alike than 50 who did it once. You’re a student, a recent grad, or just someone who’s genuinely curious about how brand-creator partnerships actually get built. A degree in Marketing, Communication or Media helps, but it’s not the bar. No minimum years of experience needed. We care far more about how you handle people than what your resume says. Bonus Points If You Have reached out to creators, brands or press before — for anything, even a college fest. Have a network of people in the travel or content space already. Have negotiated anything, ever (a rate, a deadline, a group project split — we’ll take it). Understand what makes an engagement rate or audience actually “good,” not just a big follower count. Create content yourself, or deeply understand what creators go through to make it. www.alike.io Perks & Learning Full ownership of the creator lifecycle, end to end. Direct exposure to three flagship programs: UGC, our BTG podcast, and commercial brand collabs. Real negotiation and relationship-building experience with working creators. A portfolio of actual partnerships you sourced and closed, not just “assisted with.” How to Apply Send us: A short note on why you’d be good at this. Any past experience reaching out to people, brands, or creators — formal or informal. One creator (any size) you think Alike should work with, and why. Your Instagram/LinkedIn, if you have one you’re comfortable sharing. One thing we care about most: Don’t just tell us you’re good with people. Show us you can turn a stranger into a partner.
