Influencer Manager - BD focus

At Sweatcoin, we're on a mission to make the world more active - healthier and wealthier along the way. As the leading app that turns steps into rewards, we've inspired 200M+ downloads and helped users walk over 23 trillion steps. Influencer-driven growth is one of our most powerful acquisition channels - and we're just getting started. We're looking for someone to build, scale, and own it. This is primarily a Business Development role - not a brand management one. You'll be designing systems, sourcing new channels, and driving the kind of growth that compounds. Your goal is clear: double the number of users we acquire through influencers within 6 months. You'll lead a team of junior entrepreneurs across diverse markets, bringing structure and strategy to their work while pioneering entirely new approaches to influencer acquisition - from AI-driven solutions to vertical-specific campaigns to affiliate innovation. If you're a builder who gets energy from creating something from scratch, thrives without a playbook, and wants your earnings to reflect your results - this is your role!
