Affiliate Lead at AIOS — Remote, $100k-$200/yr inc equity

About the role

We are building a world-class team. As Affiliate Lead at AIOS, your fundamental role is to turn affiliates into a cleanly attributable, scalable, and profitable customer acquisition channel, starting with Bolt Pharmacy (UK). This is not a “link in bio” creator affiliate program role. This is not a coordination-only, admin role. You will own the program end to end, beginning with recruiting high quality affiliates that you forge lasting partnerships with.

You’ll be in the weeds iterating offers, systems, and comms to elevate overall affiliate performance. You’ll:

• Grow affiliate-attributed revenue
• Ensure attribution is tidy
• Increase the output of our strongest existing partners, and cut underperformers
• Build offers, promotions, and incentives that affiliates can win with (while keeping us profitable)
• Make the program operationally reliable, measurable, and easy to scale
• Protect our brands by maintaining a high bar for content compliance, claims, and attribution

Great performance means affiliates become a predictable and increasingly important growth channel. Attribution is clean and cannibalization is minimalized. If you really nail the role, you’ll be a leading candidate for our future Head of Affiliate hire and other Senior Growth Hires.

Responsibilities

You’ll own affiliate-attributed revenue. You’ll identify the biggest growth opportunities, set the plan, and deliver. Attribution is clean, always. Your key responsibilities include:

• Revenue: You’ll own affiliate-attributed revenue.
• Sourcing: You’ll build a consistent pipeline of high-quality affiliates across publishers, comparison sites, content partners, creators, communities, and other relevant channels.
• Reporting: You’ll build a clear view of affiliate performance across revenue, attribution, conversion, CAC, retention, refunds, activation, and partner concentration.
• Activation: You’ll take new affiliates from signed to live rapidly.
• Performance: You’ll manage the affiliate roster based on output.
• Offers: You’ll make sure partners receive accurate information early enough to execute effectively.
• Comms: You’ll own day-to-day communication with affiliates across Everflow, TradeTracker, email, and other relevant channels.
• Compliance: You’ll review affiliate content where required and coordinate corrections quickly.
• Operations: You’ll maintain accurate partner information, tracking links, commission structures, workflows, and documentation across Everflow and TradeTracker.

Requirements

To be successful in this role, you should have:

• Experience: 3+ years growing affiliate, publisher, partnership, creator, and performance-based acquisition channels.
• Metric-minded: You think in attribution, revenue, CAC, contribution margin, activation, conversion, retention, refunds, and payback periods.
• Hunter: You have the chops to source, pitch, negotiate with, and close high-quality affiliates rather than relying only on inbound applications and existing networks.
• Judgement: You can quickly identify which affiliates have real potential, and cut the rest.
• Workstreams: You run the day-to-day without things falling through the cracks, including communications, offers, promotions, tracking, commissions, content reviews, and issue resolution.
• Analytics: You easily diagnose affiliate performance using data.
• Systems thinking: You build repeatable workflows, reporting, documentation, and automations so the program can scale.
• Compliance: You expertly balance rapid growth with accuracy.

Qualifications

Nice to have qualifications include:

• Regulated consumer: You have worked in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, telemedicine, pharmacy, financial services, or another category where marketing claims and partner behavior require close oversight.
• Relationships: You already have relationships with high-quality global publishers, comparison sites, content businesses, newsletters, or other affiliates you could credibly bring into the program from Day 1.
• SEO & content: You understand how affiliates use search-led content, reviews, rankings, comparison pages, and editorial placements to generate durable customer acquisition.
• International: You have managed affiliate activity across multiple countries, languages, currencies, and/or regulatory environments.
• Multi-brand experience: You have operated affiliate programs across several brands or products while keeping everything clear.
• Startup or scale-up experience: You have built in an environment where the system was still evolving and priorities moved quickly.
• AI-native: You use AI tools to accelerate partner research, outreach, content reviews, analysis, reporting, and program administration.
