Job Description
Job Title: TikTok Shop Lead
Location: Preferably hybrid, with 2 days per week in our central London office (Tower Hill). We’re also open to UK-based remote working with monthly travel for the right candidate.
Description
PetLab Co. is the world leader in the DTC pet supplement market, 9-figure revenue, profitable and rapidly growing globally.
We’re hiring a TikTok Shop Lead to supercharge our creator commerce efforts on TikTok Shop. Since launching our US TikTok Shop at the end of 2024, we’ve seen phenomenal growth - generating over £1 million in GMV and building out a group of engaged creator communities in our space. This role is all about taking that momentum and scaling it further as a revenue-driving machine.
This is not traditional influencer marketing. It’s performance-first, commercially focused, and accountable to real sales. You’ll design and lead a high-performing TikTok Shop strategy, built on high-volume content production, creative iteration, and continuous performance optimization.
You’ll identify top-performing creative formats, develop revenue-led briefs, and scale creator challenges and incentives that move the needle. Collaboration is key - you’ll work cross-functionally with creative, paid media, and agencies to maximise performance and own the growth of TikTok Shop at PetLabCo.
Who Will You Report Into?
Hi, I’m Forest, VP of Marketing at PetLab Co. Since launching our TikTok Shop, we’ve generated over £1M in GMV and built an incredibly promising growth channel - now we need someone to take full ownership and scale it.
This role is critical to our strategy going forward. You’ll work directly with me to grow our US TikTok Shop into one of our most important acquisition and revenue channels. We’re looking for a hustler with a performance mindset who’s obsessed with content that sells, experienced working with creators, and who thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.

- 10% – Performance Analysis & Iteration: Use content, shop, and paid performance data to drive creative iteration and campaign improvement.

Demonstrated ability to drive measurable sales through creative content — ideally for TikTok Shop.
Highly analytical and fluent in performance metrics and creator content data.
