Responsibilities

• Own and shape the long-term affiliate marketing strategy for the company, aligning it with broader business goals, growth plans, and market opportunities.

• Lead strategic planning for the affiliate channel: setting direction, priorities, success metrics, and clear execution frameworks for the team.

• Continuously identify new growth opportunities, partnership models, and ways to scale affiliate marketing beyond standard approaches.

• Build, manage, and develop a strong team of Affiliate Marketing Specialists: hiring, onboarding, mentoring, and growing talent from junior to senior levels.

• Run regular, high-quality 1:1s focused on performance, mindset, ownership, and long-term development rather than short-term tasks.

• Foster a culture of experimentation, non-standard ways of working, and learning, empowering the team to take smart risks and think beyond affiliates as a channel.

• Act as the main decision-maker for affiliate-related initiatives, balancing business impact, resources, and long-term sustainability.

• Partner closely with senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams to ensure affiliate strategy supports overall company growth and strategic priorities.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in affiliate marketing, partnerships, or performance-driven growth roles within startup, gaming, or e-commerce environments.

• Proven people management experience, including leading Affiliate Marketing Specialists or similar roles: hiring, onboarding, performance management, and career development.

• Demonstrated ability to build, scale, and lead teams in fast-paced, high-growth environments with evolving priorities.

• Strong strategic and business thinking, with the ability to translate company-level goals into clear team direction, priorities, and measurable outcomes.

• Track record of making and owning decisions in ambiguous, fast-changing environments typical to startups and scale-ups.

• Solid analytical mindset, using data and insights to evaluate performance, set direction, and challenge assumptions (hands-on execution experience is a plus).

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with confidence influencing decisions across teams and seniority levels.

• Leadership approach grounded in ownership, accountability, and creating sustainable, high-performing teams through effective and sometimes non-standard ways of working.
