Influencer Operations - Youtube

What is Kalshi?

Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history, is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.

We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position.

• Our vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet.

• Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets.

Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets.

Role Roadmap

We’re looking for an ambitious, relentless operator to build and scale our YouTube and podcast creator partnerships.

This is not a traditional influencer marketing role. Your job is to identify the creators who shape conversations around sports, politics, finance, and culture, convince them to partner with Kalshi, negotiate high-performing deals, and continuously improve the efficiency of our creator portfolio.

In the near term, you'll sprint to make Kalshi unavoidable during the NFL season and the U.S. midterm elections. Longer term, you'll help build the largest creator partnership network across sports, news, and culture.

We want someone energized by cold outreach, who loves negotiating, enjoys finding hidden opportunities before anyone else, and measures success in results.

What You'll Do

• Source and recruit YouTube creators and podcasts across sports, politics, news, finance, and culture

• Conduct high-volume outbound outreach to creators, agents, and management teams

• Negotiate sponsorships, integrations, and long-term creator partnerships

• Evaluate partnership opportunities based on audience quality, economics, and customer acquisition potential

• Own relationships with creators from first outreach through execution and renewal

• Constantly test new categories, formats, and creators to improve performance.

• Build systems to scale creator sourcing and outreach as Kalshi's partnership program grows

• Work closely with Growth, Brand, Creative, and Partnership teams to maximize campaign performance

What You Bring

• Passion for sports, politics, media, internet culture, or financial markets

• Exceptional work ethic and persistence - you aren't intimidated by sending thousands of outreach messages if that's what it takes

• Strong negotiation skills and sound business judgment

• Highly organized with the ability to manage hundreds of simultaneous conversations

• Comfortable operating with ambitious goals and little structure

• Excited to own outcomes rather than simply execute tasks

• Experience buying or managing YouTube sponsorships or creator partnerships

• Background in influencer marketing, media buying, talent partnerships, creator economy, or business development

We are committed to our vision of building something big… but also useful: a product that brings more truth through the power of markets.
