Position Overview

The Influencer Partnerships Associate Manager supports the strategic growth and day-to-day success of influencer and influencer-affiliate programs for leading brands. In this role, you’ll work closely with senior team members to manage programs, analyze performance, and help shape influencer strategies that drive measurable results.

This is a great opportunity for someone ready to step beyond execution into a strategic, client-facing role—with growing ownership over program direction and the expectation to lead client discussions, present insights, and help guide influencer strategy.

Key Responsibilities

    • Support the Account Manager in managing assigned client relationships, including preparation for client calls, reporting, and follow-ups.
    • Lead defined program workstreams such as recruitment initiatives, seasonal activations, or optimization projects.
    • Draft client-facing performance insights, recommendations, and recap materials for review.
  • Strategy & Optimization
    • Analyze creator and program performance to identify trends, risks, and growth opportunities.
    • Support the development and execution of influencer recruitment, activation, and optimization strategies.
    • Recommend optimizations related to creator mix, incentives, commission structures, and content formats.
  • Execution Oversight
    • Oversee day-to-day execution managed by Specialists, ensuring timelines, accuracy, and quality standards are met.
    • QA tracking setups, reports, and creator activations prior to delivery.
    • Troubleshoot escalated creator or tracking issues in partnership with internal teams.
  • Reporting & Insights
    • Own reporting and performance analysis for assigned workstreams or programs.
    • Translate data into clear, actionable insights aligned with client KPIs.
    • Support QBR preparation and performance reviews.
  • Team & Process Contribution
    • Act as a mentor and escalation point for Influencer Partnerships Specialists.
    • Contribute to process improvements, documentation, and program playbooks.
    • Collaborate closely with Affiliate Account Management teams to ensure influencer and influencer-affiliate programs align with broader affiliate strategy and client objectives.
    • Coordinate internally to ensure smooth execution, clear communication, and alignment across program stakeholders.
Experience & Skills

  • 3–5 years of experience in influencer marketing, affiliate marketing, or performance partnerships.
  • Experience supporting client relationships and strategic initiatives.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and storytelling skills.
  • Hands-on experience with CreatorIQ (or similar platforms), Excel/Sheets, and project management tools.
  • Confident communicator with growing presentation skills.
