Affiliate Marketing Manager

We’re hiring a hands-on, execution-focused Affiliate Growth Lead to own and scale our affiliate channel end-to-end. This is a contract role for a strategic operator who knows how to turn affiliate into a revenue engine — not just manage a program.

You’ll manage Rewardful, activate affiliates, and run a multi-agency process to accelerate acquisition. You’ll build the foundation, test what scales, and drive channel outcomes independently — with support from Growth as needed.

• Manage Rewardful: onboarding, payouts, updates, audits, optimization
• Activate current HeyGen users into affiliates through scalable campaigns
• Launch targeted plays to recruit high-quality new affiliates
• Refine positioning, comms, and incentives for different affiliate segments

• Source and onboard 2–3 affiliate agencies to run acquisition experiments in parallel
• Own agency management: scopes, pacing, expectations, communication
• Develop clear benchmarks to evaluate performance and recommend scale/sunset

• Build and maintain program infrastructure that supports scale
• Identify early signals, unblock friction points, and ship fast experiments
• Collaborate with Growth on prioritization and cross-functional support

• 4+ years in affiliate marketing, partnerships, or performance-driven growth
• Proven experience building or scaling an affiliate program (SaaS or product-led preferred)
• Comfortable owning agency relationships, including evaluation and accountability
• Strong operational range: you can build a plan, execute, and iterate without waiting for direction
• Experience with Rewardful, PartnerStack, or similar platforms

• Full-time contractor (40 hours/week)
• Multi-month engagement with potential to extend
• Location: Los Angeles preferred (remote OK for the right candidate)
• Reports to: Growth Marketing Manager
• Compensation: Based on experience
