Burner is hiring : Part-Time UGC Marketing Manager (Contract) in California

Overview

About Burner

Burner is a privacy-first second phone number app used by millions of people to manage work, dating, selling, side hustles, and life—without giving out their personal number. We\u2019re expanding beyond second lines into a broader suite of privacy tools, including VPN, Verified Numbers, and more. We\u2019re a small, fast-moving team with a dry, witty, privacy-savvy tone—and a very low tolerance for cringe. If you care about autonomy, clever ideas, and performance that doesn\u2019t scream “growth hack,” you\u2019ll feel right at home.

The Role

We\u2019re looking for a dedicated UGC Marketing Manager to build and run our user-generated content program across paid and organic channels. You\u2019ll scout creators, pitch scripts, review content, and build a sustainable pipeline of high-performing UGC—while also exploring new formats like customer-submitted content, original social concepts, and influencer-driven stories. You\u2019ll deliver assets that work for Meta ads first , but also organic TikTok and Instagram Reels . This is a part-time, contract role (minimum 10 hrs / week), reporting to our Creative Project Manager and working closely with Paid Media and Brand.

What You\u2019ll Do

• UGC Production : Source, brief, and manage creators to deliver performance-ready videos that match Burner\u2019s voice and meet paid media specs.
• Paid First, Organic Too : Prioritize UGC for Meta ads, but build a repeatable system for seeding high-quality content on TikTok and Instagram Reels.
• Customer Sourcing : Test and manage creator outreach strategies from within the app—e.g., surface modals that invite happy customers to contribute content.
• Influencer Vetting & Management : Review influencer pitches and submissions, provide multi-round feedback, and ensure all assets meet brand and quality standards.
• Trendspotting & Hook Building : Adapt platform-native trends and formats into scripts and prompts that feel authentic to the Burner brand.
• Original Series Development : Collaborate with Brand and freelance talent to develop short-form series (e.g., “hot takes” on privacy or street-style interviews) aligned with Burner\u2019s voice.
• Negotiation & Coordination : Handle outreach, contracts, usage rights, timelines, payments, and revisions—end to end.
• Brand x Performance : Balance Burner\u2019s dry, clever tone with the demands of performance marketing. Avoid cringe. Fight the urge to overexplain.
• Content Library Management : Organize briefs, raw files, cutdowns, and usage terms in Notion or a similar system.
• Testing & Reporting : Collaborate with Growth and Paid teams to test creators, formats, and angles—and report learnings back into the system.
