YouTube Talent Assistant A unique opportunity to work in the digital entertainment industry. Salary range: £26,450 - £29,450 We're looking for a full-time talent assistant to support the continued growth of our roster - up-and-coming and established names producing YouTube content. You'll be working directly with a handful of US-based and European creators as we help them to achieve their creative and commercial ambitions. You may have no prior experience, but can consistently demonstrate a genuine interest in digital content. Either way, you will certainly have a confident manner - not only are you friendly and personable, but you are a strong communicator who seems at ease navigating complex situations. The Role What you'll be doing: Negotiating sponsorship and brand deal enquiries Liaising with talent to communicate sponsorship deals, production schedules, and business meetings Supporting the reviewing and negotiating of contract terms to help close commercial opportunities Reporting key metrics and maintaining performance and revenue statistics for management and clients Providing marketing, advertising and social media support for both internal and client-based activities and achievements Carrying out creative and business-related tasks on behalf of clients on an ad hoc basis Contributing ideas and pitches for talent development and sponsored content You will have the option of working entirely remote within the UK, being based at our office in Northampton or a hybrid of the two. Occasionally, you will travel to meet clients and attend events locally and overseas. We offer all staff 25 days annual leave excluding bank holidays, as well as inclusion in the company's profit share scheme, and mental health insurance policy. The Candidate This role will suit someone who believes they are an unusual mix of creativity and commercial-mindedness. You'll have an ambition to challenge yourself and not necessarily in obvious ways. This means that those with initiative often make the most of their time at Ziggurat and we are dedicated to helping staff develop a variety of skills. Whilst you will work closely with other colleagues, you will also develop your own relationships with brands and talent, and you will be confident speaking with even the best-known creators. Ultimately though, we are looking for behaviours and attitudes rather than knowledge and skills. There are few with experience of what we do and this role is a unique entry point into the digital entertainment industry. The best candidate might not know what you want to do but you will work hard to find out if this might be it. The Company Ziggurat XYZ represents emerging and established names in digital media, providing a bespoke management service to YouTube creators as they grow and develop their audience, content, and businesses. We are the first agency in our industry to be recognised by the King's Awards for Enterprise. Last year, we earned the International Trade award for outstanding growth in overseas income thanks to our diverse and global roster. Our clients all produce content broadly under the umbrella of factual entertainment. We generate ideas with scientists and engineers like Xyla Foxlin , Steve Mould , and Integza ; drink coffee with James Hoffmann (and question everything we think we know about our daily cup), unpick layers of pop and internet culture with uncarley and Shanspeare , and dream up renovation goals with Rewilding Jude and How to Renovate a Chateau . Together, our roster reaches an audience of hundreds of millions with an eclectic mix of interests and hobbies. Our team are a burgeoning gang of specialists. They are trusted advisors and industry experts to our clients and our office in Northampton acts as a vibrant hub of global activity. The building is a renovated Victorian brewery off of Northampton's Creative Quarter. The location is 10 minutes' walk from Northampton Rail Station, with connections up and down the Midland Mainline - 56 minutes from London Euston, 59 minutes from Birmingham New Street, and 15 minutes from Milton Keynes. It is also only 10 minutes from Junction 15 of the M1. Applying If the above sounds like you - and you like the sound of us - please apply with your CV and covering letter outlining your interest in the role and business at our careers website using the 'Apply for this job' button. Applications for this vacancy will be considered on an ongoing basis. The deadline for applications is Monday 11th May 2026.

Salary range: £26,450 - £29,450 We're looking for a full-time talent assistant to support the continued growth of our roster - up-and-coming and established names producing YouTube content. You'll be working directly with a handful of US-based and European creators as we help them to achieve their creative and commercial ambitions. You may have no prior experience, but can consistently demonstrate a genuine interest in digital content. Either way, you will certainly have a confident manner - not only are you friendly and personable, but you are a strong communicator who seems at ease navigating complex situations. The Role What you'll be doing: Negotiating sponsorship and brand deal enquiries Liaising with talent to communicate sponsorship deals, production schedules, and business meetings Supporting the reviewing and negotiating of contract terms to help close commercial opportunities Reporting key metrics and maintaining performance and revenue statistics for management and clients Providing marketing, advertising and social media support for both internal and client-based activities and achievements Carrying out creative and business-related tasks on behalf of clients on an ad hoc basis Contributing ideas and pitches for talent development and sponsored content You will have the option of working entirely remote within the UK, being based at our office in Northampton or a hybrid of the two. Occasionally, you will travel to meet clients and attend events locally and overseas. We offer all staff 25 days annual leave excluding bank holidays, as well as inclusion in the company's profit share scheme, and mental health insurance policy. The Candidate This role will suit someone who believes they are an unusual mix of creativity and commercial-mindedness. You'll have an ambition to challenge yourself and not necessarily in obvious ways. This means that those with initiative often make the most of their time at Ziggurat and we are dedicated to helping staff develop a variety of skills. Whilst you will work closely with other colleagues, you will also develop your own relationships with brands and talent, and you will be confident speaking with even the best-known creators. Ultimately though, we are looking for behaviours and attitudes rather than knowledge and skills. There are few with experience of what we do and this role is a unique entry point into the digital entertainment industry. The best candidate might not know what you want to do but you will work hard to find out if this might be it. The Company Ziggurat XYZ represents emerging and established names in digital media, providing a bespoke management service to YouTube creators as they grow and develop their audience, content, and businesses. We are the first agency in our industry to be recognised by the King's Awards for Enterprise. Last year, we earned the International Trade award for outstanding growth in overseas income thanks to our diverse and global roster. Our clients all produce content broadly under the umbrella of factual entertainment. We generate ideas with scientists and engineers like Xyla Foxlin , Steve Mould , and Integza ; drink coffee with James Hoffmann (and question everything we think we know about our daily cup), unpick layers of pop and internet culture with uncarley and Shanspeare , and dream up renovation goals with Rewilding Jude and How to Renovate a Chateau . Together, our roster reaches an audience of hundreds of millions with an eclectic mix of interests and hobbies. Our team are a burgeoning gang of specialists. They are trusted advisors and industry experts to our clients and our office in Northampton acts as a vibrant hub of global activity. The building is a renovated Victorian brewery off of Northampton's Creative Quarter. The location is 10 minutes' walk from Northampton Rail Station, with connections up and down the Midland Mainline - 56 minutes from London Euston, 59 minutes from Birmingham New Street, and 15 minutes from Milton Keynes. It is also only 10 minutes from Junction 15 of the M1. Applying If the above sounds like you - and you like the sound of us - please apply with your CV and covering letter outlining your interest in the role and business at our careers website using the 'Apply for this job' button. Applications for this vacancy will be considered on an ongoing basis. The deadline for applications is Monday 11th May 2026.
