About the Role
We are a performance-driven digital advertising agency managing paid media campaigns for a growing roster of e-commerce clients. As we scale, the quality and volume of creative assets (specifically user-generated video content) has become one of the most critical drivers of ad performance. We are looking for a motivated and organized Affiliate Manager to own this function end-to-end.
In this role, you will be responsible for building and managing a network of content creators who produce video footage used directly in our clients' paid advertising campaigns. You will sign creators as affiliates, onboard them, help them receive product's, and maintain the ongoing relationships necessary to ensure a consistent and high-quality pipeline of video content. Your success will be measured not just by the number of creators you sign, but by the performance of the content they produce in our clients' ads.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify, outreach, and sign content creators across platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube to serve as affiliates for assigned clients
- Onboard new affiliates and clearly communicate content expectations, deadlines, and brand guidelines for each client
- Maintain consistent communication with all active affiliates to ensure delivery of the agreed-upon video quota (typically 4 videos per month per creator)
- Collaborate with the ad buying team to understand which types of creative are performing and brief creators accordingly
- Review incoming video submissions for quality and usability before passing them to the ad buying team
- Track and report on affiliate content delivery rates and flag any fulfillment issues proactively
- Manage a growing roster of affiliates across multiple client accounts simultaneously, maintaining organized records for each
- Continuously source new creators to expand and diversify the affiliate network
- Develop and maintain strong, professional relationships with affiliates to reduce churn and improve long-term content quality

This role offers a competitive base salary with significant performance-based bonus potential tied directly to client revenue growth. Total annual compensation can reach up to $90,000 for top performers.
