About Chris McMillan Hair
Chris McMillan Hair is a high-performance haircare brand rooted in artistry and built to make good hair accessible for all. Founded by Chris McMillan — with over four decades behind the chair — the brand carries a level of credibility and craft that shows up in everything we create. Chris is still a working stylist, taking clients every day. Based on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, our team is tight-knit, passionate, and genuinely loves what we're building. If you're looking to build something from the ground up, this is the place.
About the Role
Own and drive our influencer and partnership strategy — developing a strong network of creators and stylists who are genuinely connected to the brand. You'll lead how we build relationships, structure paid partnerships, and show up across cultural moments, helping translate Chris' authority into a modern, connected community that fuels both brand and business growth.

- Develop and manage long-term relationships with creators, agents, and stylists
- Own and drive the influencer program across paid and earned
- Lead paid partnerships end to end — identification, negotiation, briefing, execution, and performance tracking
- Develop and execute a consistent seeding strategy
- Create and oversee community-driven activations, events, and experiences
- Activate the brand across key cultural moments including editorial, red carpet, and stylist-led opportunities
- Own performance tracking across EMV, reach, engagement, affiliate, and conversion using tools like Tribe Dynamics/CreatorIQ
- Manage influencer budgets and optimize spend
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years in influencer marketing in beauty, hair, or prestige consumer brands
- Established relationships across the creator, talent management, and professional stylist landscape
- Hands-on experience across paid partnerships, organic seeding, events, and creator commerce
- Proven taste in casting and curation
- Energized by a fast-paced, founder-led environment
Why Chris McMillan
- Be part of the legacy — four decades of credibility, a founder still behind the chair every day
- Get in at the perfect time — strong momentum at Sephora, expanding into pro channel
- Join a team you'll love — tight-knit, fun, genuinely excited about what we're building
