BEAM be amazing is looking for a full-time Influencer/Athlete Manager to join our rapidly growing team in Nashville, Tennessee.

BEAM is one of the fastest-growing premium supplement brands in the industry but BEAM is one of those words that has more to it than meets the eye. BEAM stands for Be Amazing. The best version of you is different for everyone. For Mike, one of our founders, the word BEAM has been life-changing. B.E.A.M. happens to be the acronym of the cancer treatment that saved his life. Pretty amazing, right?

BEAMs products are of the highest quality due to their top-of-the-line formulas made in an FDA-regulated facility and 3rd party tested.

Then with all this, we truly want to make a difference which is why “impact” means so much. In just 2 years, BEAM has donated over $400,000 to cancer research, planted over 2,000 trees, gifted over 500 months of free therapy, and so much more! By you joining this team, you will be helping us improve our impact.

Plus, our fast-paced environment allows us to be constantly up to new and exciting projects!

The Position:

This is one of the most important roles at BEAM. Our brand stands for inclusion, positivity, and so much more. This role will be to help build that with existing creators while recruiting others to help spread the word. We are a great brand run by great people and the more we can share this, the more amazing we can spread.

A deep understanding of influencer/athlete management, event coordination, social voice, tone, organization, style, and creativity is critical. As an Influencer Manager, your role will require you to incorporate multiple personalities and strategies per social channel while creating organic, exciting, and engaging content.

Extreme organizational skills and an understanding of trends, culture, and social media is a must.

Your relationship-building and managing will be a large focus as our influencer and athlete programs are built.

The beauty of this position is that you will gain valuable experience outside of influencer marketing, event organization, and content creation. You will also be working with our CMO and CSO in Athlete contract negotiations, recruitment, event planning, and partnerships. These relationships are imperative in helping BEAM grow its brand and increase its overall footprint.

The Responsibilities:

  • Organization: Social media for a brand is a vast sea of responsibility. We are looking for someone who is both creative and hyper-organized to help keep you ahead of the schedule!
  • Balancing Act: dealing with different influencers and their personalities can be challenging. We must balance being patient while also getting the job done.
  • Reporting: we are immensely data-driven. This role will require you to run several reports per athlete to understand what strategies are working vs not working. From there we can make some adjustments together and learn about the content we ask them to post.
  • Recruiting: we have seen great success but for us to take the next steps, we will need someone who can bring in new talent that will make an immediate impact on our brand’s growth.
  • Negotiating: working with our athletes is a long term job so we will need to be able to negotiate contracts that benefit the company while making sure our athletes stay happy.

These are the foundational duties of your job. This position will require someone who is motivated and not afraid to learn. An out-of-the-box thinker will directly help BEAM make a better customer experience, and help increase company efficiencies. We encourage you to look elsewhere if you think you are timid or lazy. (Sorry this is just to help save you and us time!)

The Expectations:

  • An entrepreneurial spirit. We built this company from the ground up! Part of this journey has been learning and overcoming adversity, can you relate?
  • Experience handling athletes/influencers in any way, shape or form. Patience, understanding, care, and urgency, these are all characteristics of someone who has dealt with influencers!
  • Problem solver. Do you like puzzles or brain teasers? Sometimes organizing multiple care packages, launch strategies, and in-person events can be challenging. Solving these tasks requires motivation and outside-the-box thinking!
  • Put in the extra effort. We understand that some issues arise outside of “work hours” but we know that time is crucial and being there to solve them can save us hours down the road.
  • Leader. Although this position will start without a team, we need someone who understands the basics of being a team player and a team leader. As you progress in this role your management skills will play a part.
  • Honest work. We appreciate people who are honest and respectful, plain and simple!

The Qualifications:

  • 3-4 years of professional influencer marketing and relationship management experience
  • 2-3 years of professional social media experience
  • Excellent verbal, written, and presentation skills. Creativity is a must!
  • Passion for health and fitness, BEAM’s mission, and the products/services we offer
  • Strong balance of confidence and humility
  • Outgoing personality that can control a room
  • Additional experience with software like GRIN, Shopify, Slack, Productivity Apps

The Perks:

  • Fast-paced, start-up environment, built for a spirited, motivated learner
  • Full-time position with a competitive salary
  • Health benefits provided
  • Transportation incentives available (upon review)
  • Generous vacation and paid time off policies
  • Free apparel, accessories, and supplements, all the time!

What is an entertainment career?

An entertainment career encompasses a broad spectrum of roles and activities within the creative industries, including film, television, music, theater, and digital media. These careers involve the creation, production, and distribution of content designed to entertain, inform, and engage audiences. Here’s a closer look at the various aspects of an entertainment career, what it involves, and the opportunities it presents.

Key Sectors in Entertainment

1. Film and Television: This sector includes jobs ranging from acting, directing, and screenwriting to more technical roles like cinematography, sound engineering, and editing. Professionals in this field work on movies, TV shows, commercials, and documentaries.

2. Music: Careers in music are diverse and can range from performing as a singer or instrumentalist to roles behind the scenes such as music production, songwriting, and managing artists.

3. Theater: Theater professionals may work as actors, directors, set designers, or playwrights. This field emphasizes live performances and often requires a strong background in performing arts.

4. Digital Media: With the rise of internet content consumption, digital media careers have become highly popular. This includes digital content creation, animation, video game design, and roles in emerging platforms like streaming services.

5. Event Management and Promotion: This involves organizing concerts, premieres, sports events, and other entertainment functions. Careers here include event planners, promoters, and logistical support roles.

Educational Paths

Most roles in entertainment require a combination of formal education and hands-on experience. Degrees in film, theater, music, digital arts, or media studies are common among professionals in this field. However, many skills in the entertainment industry are honed through apprenticeships, internships, and on-the-job training.

Skills Required

A successful career in entertainment often demands creativity, perseverance, and a strong work ethic. Technical skills specific to an industry segment—like editing software proficiency for filmmakers or digital audio workstations knowledge for music producers—are also crucial. Soft skills, such as communication, teamwork, and networking, are essential, given the collaborative nature of the industry.

Career Opportunities and Challenges

Entertainment careers can be incredibly rewarding, offering the chance to work on creative projects and sometimes gaining public recognition. However, these careers can also be highly competitive and unpredictable. Job stability can be an issue, as work is often project-based and may involve periods of unemployment between gigs. Moreover, the rise of digital technologies continues to reshape career paths in entertainment, creating new opportunities but also challenges for traditional roles.
