Storm Management is seeking a proactive, commercially minded Talent Manager to support and grow a roster of leading digital creators, presenters, and talent. This role is suitable for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, has a strong understanding of the media, fashion, and entertainment industries, and enjoys building long-term careers through strategic thinking, creativity, and relationship management.
The successful candidate will be highly organised, entrepreneurial, and relationship-driven, with a passion for identifying opportunities, developing talent, and helping clients expand into new spaces, including fashion, beauty, lifestyle, media, and broadcast.
Key Responsibilities of the Talent Manager:
- Manage the day-to-day careers of a roster of talent, acting as their primary point of contact.
- Oversee talent diaries, scheduling, travel logistics, appearances, shoots, events, and meetings.
- Identify, create, and secure commercial, media, broadcast, PR, and brand partnership opportunities.
- Proactively pitch talent to brands, production companies, broadcasters, publishers, and industry contacts rather than relying solely on inbound opportunities.
- Develop strategic career plans tailored to each talent's ambitions, strengths, and long-term goals.
- Generate innovative PR, content, and personal brand-building ideas that elevate talent profiles and create new avenues for growth.
- Research and identify opportunities across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, entertainment, podcasting, presenting, publishing, and broadcast.
- Scout and identify emerging talent for potential representation, maintaining a strong awareness of industry trends and cultural movements.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with brands, media, casting teams, producers, publicists, and key industry stakeholders.
- Negotiate opportunities and oversee campaign delivery alongside internal teams and external partners.
- Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and emerging platforms to identify new revenue streams and business opportunities.
- Represent Storm and its talent professionally at industry events, launches, productions, fashion weeks, and networking opportunities.
- Ensure all talent administration, contracts, bookings, and communications are managed accurately and efficiently.
Team Collaboration:
- Work closely with directors, agents, and colleagues across the business to deliver the best possible outcomes for talent and the agency.
- Share opportunities, contacts, and industry insights to contribute to the success of the wider roster and team.
- Collaborate on cross-roster projects, events, campaigns, and new business initiatives.
- Support colleagues during busy periods and maintain a flexible, team-first approach.
- Build strong internal relationships and contribute positively to a collaborative, ambitious, and supportive working culture.
- Understand that exceptional talent management is built through teamwork, communication, and collective problem-solving as much as individual initiative.
What Storm Management is looking for:
- A minimum of 2 years' experience either in Talent Management or in Talent Acquisition, either directly for brands or as their representative, for example, working in PR for fashion, beauty, luxury & lifestyle brands.
- Comfortable managing complex diaries and logistics as they are pitching new ideas, spotting emerging trends, and helping shape the future of the roster.
- Ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, and deadlines simultaneously in a busy office environment.
- A genuine interest in fashion, media, entertainment, digital talent, and popular culture.
- Commercial awareness and a natural instinct for identifying opportunities and generating new business.
- Creative and intuitive proactive thinker who enjoys finding innovative solutions and thinking outside the box.
- Confident networking with brands, clients, media contacts, and industry professionals.
- Comfortable with occasional travel and working flexibly around events, productions, and client requirements.
