About the Role:
We're hiring a high-performing Affiliate Marketing Manager to drive partner acquisition and revenue growth within our lead generation campaigns. This role is quota-based and best suited for someone who thrives under pressure, knows how to build relationships fast, and isn't afraid to chase bold numbers.
You'll be responsible for sourcing new affiliates, optimizing existing ones, and growing performance through smart negotiation, campaign insight, and strategic hustle. This is not a behind-the-scenes role, we want someone with presence, persistence, and polish who can represent our brand at events like LeadsCon and own the affiliate channel end-to-end.
What You'll Do:
- Recruit, activate, and manage affiliates across lead generation verticals.
- Own affiliate performance: track KPIs, optimize traffic, and scale high-converting partnerships.
- Negotiate deals and placements that align with ROI goals.
- Build strong relationships with publishers, influencers, email marketers, and media buyers.
- Collaborate with internal teams on offers, compliance, and funnel improvements.
- Travel to affiliate and lead gen conferences (LeadsCon, Affiliate Summit, etc.) to network and grow your roster.
- Deliver on monthly revenue and volume targets — this is a quota-carrying role.
What You Bring:
- Affiliate or partner marketing experience is preferred.
- A track record of hitting revenue and acquisition goals.
- Exceptional communication and negotiation skills — confident, charismatic, and clear.
- Strong understanding of CPL/CPA campaign structures, tracking, and affiliate dynamics.
- Comfortable interpreting performance data, but not buried in spreadsheets.
- Willing to travel and work the room at networking events and trade shows.
Compensation & Perks:
- Base salary: $45,000–$55,000 depending on experience.
- Competitive, performance-based bonuses tied to revenue and partner growth.
- Travel budget for industry events and conferences.
- Join a fast-growing marketing team making real impact at scale.
