About Manifest

Manifest O.S. is an AI-native company on a mission to replace the billable hour and make legal services more accessible for American businesses and consumers. We power the next generation of AI-native law firms with one unified global brand, a proprietary technology platform, and a centralized back office — enabling lawyers to eliminate the administrative burden and focus on delivering exceptional outcomes for their clients. Backed by leading venture investors, Manifest O.S. is scaling rapidly.

About the team

Our marketing team is a data-driven powerhouse of about 15 people who believe that great marketing starts with understanding exactly who you're talking to and why they should care. We're heavy on analytics, experimentation, and cross-functional collaboration with sales, product, and customer success. The team values technical depth alongside creative strategy, and we're not afraid to get our hands dirty in the data to find insights that drive real business impact.

Ideal experience

Must have 7+ years in strategy, growth, operations, or business development at a high-growth startup, consulting firm, or operator-led company. Proven ability to build systems and processes that scale — you turn what's working into a repeatable machine. Strong analytical skills with dashboards, KPIs, and data-driven decision-making coming naturally. Experience managing and developing a small team of 2-5 people. Strong relationship and outreach instincts — you know how to pitch, persuade, and build trust with external partners. Builder's mindset — energized by ambiguity and defaults to creating structure. Strong preferences include direct experience in influencer marketing, creator relations, ambassador programs, or brand partnerships. Familiarity with influencer economics including pricing, compensation structures, affiliate and performance-based models. Experience with multicultural or multilingual campaigns targeting specific ethnic/national demographics. Background in regulated industries such as legal, financial services, or healthcare. Familiarity with LinkedIn and YouTube as marketing channels. Track record of building playbooks and SOPs handed off to a team.

About the role

We're hiring a Director of Influencer Partnerships to lead and scale this function. This is first and foremost a strategic operations role. We have a working foundation — proven channel economics, 40+ active influencers, and a clear expansion roadmap into Chinese, Brazilian, Colombian, and Russian demographics. What we need now is a builder who can systematize what's working, lead a team of 2-3, and scale the channel into Manifest Law's most durable growth engine. Direct influencer partnerships experience is a plus, not a requirement. We're hiring for strategic instincts, operational rigor, and leadership ability first. You won't just manage a channel — you'll own a business function. This is a role for someone who thinks like a general manager, operates like a founder, and leads like someone who's built something before.

This for you if

This is for you if you're the type of person who gets genuinely excited about taking something that's working and turning it into a scalable, repeatable machine — you see a scrappy 40-influencer program and immediately start sketching out the systems, processes, and team structure needed to 10x it. You thrive in externally-facing roles where relationship building isn't just part of the job but energizes you, whether that's crafting the perfect outreach sequence to land a top creator or negotiating partnership terms that work for everyone. You're equally comfortable diving deep into performance data to optimize the funnel and jumping on calls to build trust with influencers across different cultures and demographics. If you've ever built an operating playbook from scratch, handed it off to a team, and watched them execute it flawlessly without you, this role will feel like home.

Not for you if

This role isn't right for you if you prefer polished, resource-rich environments where strategies are handed to you rather than built from the ground up. If you're uncomfortable with ambiguity, need extensive infrastructure before you can execute, or tend to think in terms of what marketing should do rather than what actually moves the needle for customers, you'll struggle here. We need someone who instinctively asks "what does our audience actually want?" before "what do other companies do?" and who's energized by rolling up their sleeves to figure out what works, even when it's messy.
