Affiliate Growth Specialist

About This Role

We are looking for a highly skilled professional to join our team as an Affiliate Growth Strategist. The ideal candidate will have experience in affiliate program management, TikTok Shop setup, and influencer partnerships.

This role involves launching and managing TikTok Shops from scratch, growing affiliate networks, and turning creators into revenue-driving partners. If you have experience setting up or managing TikTok Shops and thrive on building systems from the ground up, this is your opportunity to own the process end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Launch and manage TikTok Shop/Seller Center from scratch (catalog, listings, payouts, workflows).
• Define commission structures and creator onboarding flows.
• Launch Spark Ads from top-performing UGC, test hooks/angles, and scale winning campaigns.
• Partner with designers to refine product listings, visuals, and ad creatives for maximum conversion.

Affiliate Program Management

• Manage and scale affiliate programs on ShareASale, UpPromote, and similar platforms.
• Recruit, activate, and retain high-performing affiliates across YouTube, SEO, blogs, and niche communities.
• Design and run leaderboards, contests, referral bonuses, and re-activation campaigns to drive consistent sales.
• Maintain accurate attribution, payouts, and dashboards, reporting performance weekly.

Creator & Community Leadership

• Build and manage a central hub (Slack/Discord) for affiliates and creators.
• Keep partners engaged with campaign briefs, contests, AMAs, newsletters, and shoutouts.
• Source, vet, and brief creators for reviews, unboxings, lifestyle content, and testimonials.
• Collaborate with design/editing to categorize UGC (problem-solution, testimonial, demo) and repurpose across ads, PDPs, email, and social.

Collaboration & Operations

• Work directly with the CEO and Growth team to align goals, budgets, and timelines.
• Build and refine SOPs for seeding, creator approvals, content briefs, and payout cycles.
• Share insights and actionable growth reports with leadership weekly.

Requirements

• 3+ years in affiliate/influencer marketing; TikTok Shop/Seller Center experience from setup to scale is a plus.
• Fluency with ShareASale, UpPromote (or similar) and ability to design incentives, tiers, and contests that move revenue.
• Data-driven: comfortable with UTM structures, platform attribution, cohort/ROI insights, and weekly reporting.
• Communication skills: authentic, execute fast, own outcomes with minimal hand-holding.
• Bonus tools: Canva, CapCut, Notion, ChatGPT (for workflow speed), experience with technical products.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary with room to grow as you deliver results.
• Optional performance-based bonuses tied to tracked affiliate sales, TikTok Shop growth, and ROI improvements.
• Remote-first setup with clear SOPs and async-friendly tools to keep things efficient.
• Direct collaboration with the CEO, designer, and strategist.
• A strong product with proven demand and rapid marketplace expansion (TikTok Shop, Amazon, Walmart, BestBuy).
• A long-term opportunity with potential to grow into Head of Affiliates, Growth Lead, or Marketplace Director.

Priorities

• This is a full-time role (no part-time or freelancing with other clients).
• Join as an independent contractor, responsible for your own taxes/compliance.
• Provide your own reliable equipment (laptop/desktop, high-speed internet, camera/mic).
• Core collaboration hours are 6:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. PST, with a 2-hour flexibility window.
• The first month includes a training/trial period with scaled pay.
• Payments are made weekly via PayPal or bi-weekly via Wise.
