Affiliate Manager, Social & Creator Partnerships (Remote, Full-Time)

Nova is a major supplier of research-use-only peptides and has an active growth plan to span across multiple adjacent industries, with a strong distribution system and warehouse/ central office located in Houston, TX. Our affiliate program runs on GoAffiliatePro and will have a recruiter bringing in new partner condidates. We need someone who turns those sign-ups into people who actually sell, and who keeps them selling.
This is a phone job. If you'd rather write an email than pick up the phone, stop here.
What you'll own
The feedback loop with our recruiter. You tell them which prospects are not a fit for our program and work directly with the team to develop stricter guidelines for this. You report and draw conclusions based upon which prospects converted, which went quiet, and why. Your notes decide who they chase next.
Stalled affiliates. In the past, a large share of the roster signed up and never posted. You call them, find out what's in the way, and get them live.
Incentives. You draft commission bumps, sales bonuses, and contest structures. You bring them to the CMO for approval, launch them, and report whether they moved revenue.
Relationships. You know each top affiliate's audience, posting schedule, and what's working for them. They text you before they text anyone else.
Compliance. Our products are sold for research use only. You make sure affiliate content never includes dosing, human-use claims, or health promises, and you correct it quickly when it does.
GoAffiliatePro. You manage links, coupon codes, commission tiers, payouts, and a weekly performance report.
What a good first 90 days looks like
Every affiliate on the roster has been contacted, with notes logged.
A measurable share of dormant affiliates has made a first sale.
At least two incentive programs have launched, with results tracked.
The recruiter is getting consistently daily weekly written feedback without having to ask for it.
You'll do well here if
Four to six hours of calls a day energizes you.
You follow up a third and fourth time without taking silence personally.
You remember that a creator's kid had a birthday last week, and you mention it.
You can see a 40% drop in someone's sales, find the cause, and fix it.
You write short, clear messages and get replies.
You won't do well here if
You need a detailed playbook before you start.
You treat affiliates as rows in a spreadsheet.
Regulated-category rules make you uncomfortable.
Requirements
2+ years in affiliate management, influencer partnerships, creator relations, or social media marketing/ growth.

Preferred
Hands-on experience with an affiliate platform: GoAffiliatePro, UpPromote, Refersion, Impact, or similar is a bonus.
Experience in supplements, peptides, fitness, or another regulated DTC category is a strong plus.
