We are standing up a creator and affiliate program from zero this quarter, and we need the person who runs it end to end.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>The role:<\/strong> You own influencer and affiliate end-to-end. Finding the right creators, building the relationships, closing the deals, and making sure every partnership drives revenue &#8211; not reach for its own sake.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a strategy job. The strategy exists. This is the job of making 200 creators say yes.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>What you will do<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Build and own the creator pipeline: find them, DM them, price them, close them<\/li>\n<li>Source TikTok and Instagram creators in walking, health, daily fit-check, and 10k-steps content &#8211; people with consistent 100k+ view reach across their last 10 videos<\/li>\n<li>Negotiate creator packages and make both sides feel good about it<\/li>\n<li>Run posting waves: everyone briefed, everyone delivered, everyone posting inside the same 2-hour window<\/li>\n<li>Manage clipping channels (Whop and similar) as an amplification layer<\/li>\n<li>Stand up the affiliate program: links, rates, tracking, payouts, leaderboard<\/li>\n<li>Report weekly on the only numbers that matter: cost per creator, views per dollar, link-attributed revenue, CAC vs. the $20 blended target<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who you are<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The most important thing: you have done this before at a similar stage and you have proof.
