About Creatorly Creatorly is a creator marketing platform that connects brands with a fast-growing network of micro and small Instagram creators (roughly 1K–50K followers) for paid influencer campaigns. Brands pay a simple ₹499/month plus a 2% platform fee, and can repurpose creator content as paid ads. With a solid creator community in place, we are now scaling the brand side of our marketplace. The role As our Founding Brand Partnerships Lead, you will lead brand acquisition end to end, from first outreach to a brand's first live campaign. You will work directly with the founders and lay the foundation for a growing brand partnerships team. What you'll own
• Lead generation: build target lists of D2C and growing brands that already post on Instagram and spend on influencers (Instagram, Meta Ad Library, LinkedIn, D2C directories).
• Outreach and follow-up across cold email, Instagram DM, LinkedIn and WhatsApp, with every touchpoint logged.
• Discovery, demo and proposal, and closing calls: handle objections on pricing, creator quality and ROI, and convert brands to a paid subscription.
• Onboarding and the first campaign: set up the brand, build its first brief, make sure creators deliver, and drive repeat campaigns.
• An accurate CRM pipeline, a documented sales playbook, and weekly market insights for the founders. Must-haves




• 2–5 years in brand partnerships, account management or sales at an influencer marketing agency, creator platform, ad-tech or D2C-focused company.

• A self-starter who builds and manages their own pipeline.
• Excellent written and spoken English and Hindi. Nice-to-haves
• A network of D2C founders, brand managers or agency contacts.
• Experience building sales processes at an early-stage startup.
