You won’t negotiate the deals; you’ll design the strategy, programs, and performance engine that maximize the value of our partner, marketing, and sales motions.
What you’ll do:
- Diagnose & size opportunities. Own the supply KPI tree end-to-end (growth, conversion, CAC, etc)). Identify gaps, size TAM/SAM by partner/geo/segment, and prioritize the highest-impact bets.
- Build the organic growth system (with Marketing). Stand up always-on, non-paid levers: SEO/content surfaces, community/referrals, partner co-marketing, and lifecycle programs (welcome → activation → quality → reactivation) using CRM/nurture, triggered messaging, and in-product nudges.
- Design scalable incentives. Create tiered bounties, credits, co-op funds, and performance bonuses that improve activation, quality, and economics; define eligibility rules, abuse protections, and clear payout logic.
- Launch and scale affiliates. Build an affiliate/creator/connector program (networks direct) with accurate tracking, transparent dashboards, and compliance—optimize for incremental NAAS, not vanity volume.
- Translate strategy into plans. Turn priorities into crisp charters with hypotheses, budgets, owners, and timelines; run phased pilots (geo/segment splits), then scale what works with playbooks and SOPs.
- Instrument, measure, and learn. Own experimentation and attribution (A/B, geo splits, MMM/causal reads). Build self-serve dashboards and weekly readouts; quantify incrementality, LTV/CAC, and payback.
- Systematize & automate. Partner with Product/Eng to ship tooling for catalog standards, QA, lifecycle triggers, payouts, and partner portals; drive down manual touches per unit.
- Enable cross-functional execution. Align Marketing, Sales/Field, Partnerships, Scaled Ops, Legal/Policy, and Finance on goals, SLAs, and WBR/QBR cadences; publish scorecards by lever/region/partner.
- Own outcomes. Understand performance deeply, size opportunities, design and implement the plan, measure results, and build it out at scale—closing the loop from insight → action → growth.
Qualifications:
- 8 years in marketplace/growth/supply ops or consulting spanning performance marketing, partnerships, and sales execution
- Consulting background (top-tier strategy/ops) with MBA preferred; proven ability to turn strategy into scalable, measurable programs.
- Advanced SQL (window functions, cohorting, experiment reads) and strong analytics; proficiency with Sheets/Excel and a BI tools like Tableau
- Experience with SMB and B2B sales cycles
- Track record designing incentive/partner tiering, SLAs, attribution models, and WBR/QBR operating cadences.
- Exceptional cross-functional leadership and crisp writing; able to influence at exec and field levels.
