Affiliate Manager - TTS Focused

We are seeking an experienced Affiliate Manager with a strong focus on TikTok Shop (TTS) Affiliates to drive and scale our affiliate growth strategy. This role requires deep, hands-on experience using the TikTok Shop Affiliate backend tool and a proven ability to recruit, manage, and optimize affiliate partnerships at scale.

This position can easily be mistaken for standard influencer outreach; however, while creator outreach is part of the job, the primary value of this role is operational depth within TikTok Shop, system familiarity, and performance-driven execution. The ideal candidate has direct experience working within a TikTok Shop ecosystem that operates at meaningful GMV scale and can fully own the affiliate channel end-to-end.

This role will initially focus heavily on TTS platform affiliates, but will expand into off-platform affiliate recruitment across creators, publishers, and strategic partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage, optimize, and scale TikTok Shop affiliate partnerships using the TikTok Shop Affiliate backend tool. • Recruit, onboard, and develop new affiliates to drive revenue growth and consistent performance. • Build strong relationships with affiliates and creators, ensuring engagement, support, and long-term retention. • Track and evaluate affiliate performance, providing actionable reporting and optimization insights. • Drive affiliate program growth through sampling expansion, increasing sampling volume on a monthly basis. • Set up and oversee affiliate automation tools (including bots and workflow automation) to improve scaling and execution. • Collaborate with Marketing, Product, and Operations teams to align affiliate campaigns with brand goals. • Expand the affiliate program beyond TikTok Shop to include off-platform creators, publishers, and partner ecosystems. • Stay up to date on TikTok Shop trends, competitor activity, and affiliate marketing best practices.
