Senior E-Commerce Affiliate Manager - CPA Network

Company: Cash Network Location: Remote Employment Type: Full-Time Industry: Affiliate Marketing / Performance Marketing / Direct-Response E-Commerce About Cash Network Cash Network is an established performance marketing and CPA affiliate network with nearly 20 years of experience connecting advertisers with performance-driven affiliates and media buyers. We operate across multiple direct-response verticals and have the infrastructure of an established affiliate network, including advertiser relationships, tracking technology, affiliate management, campaign operations, compliance, and affiliate payments. We are now expanding into physical-product E-Commerce , working directly with advertisers and product owners to bring CPA-based Ecom offers to our affiliate network. We are looking for an experienced Senior E-Commerce Affiliate Manager who can help build and scale this new vertical. This is not a traditional E-Commerce marketing position. We are specifically looking for someone who already manages or maintains an established network of active E-Commerce affiliates and independent media buyers. The Opportunity This is a hands-on, business-building opportunity within an established performance marketing company. Our initial E-Commerce model is straightforward: Work with direct advertisers and product owners offering physical consumer products. Make those offers available through Cash Network's existing affiliate infrastructure. Recruit, onboard, manage, and activate independent affiliates and media buyers who can generate profitable traffic and sales. Build a scalable, revenue-producing E-Commerce affiliate business. We already have the operational infrastructure and are developing direct advertiser relationships. What we need is someone who can bring the traffic and distribution relationships. The successful candidate will be responsible for helping establish this vertical from the ground up, with a strong emphasis on activating existing industry relationships, recruiting additional qualified affiliates, and developing a profitable E-Commerce book of business. Critical Requirement: Existing E-Commerce Affiliate Book of Business To be considered for this position, you MUST already have an established network of active affiliates or independent media buyers who currently promote physical-product E-Commerce offers. We are specifically looking for relationships with performance affiliates and media buyers who: Actively run CPA-based or direct-response physical-product E-Commerce campaigns. Purchase and manage their own traffic through platforms such as Meta/Facebook, Google, native advertising networks, TikTok, or similar channels. Have experience promoting consumer products such as gadgets, home goods, beauty products, personal care items, lifestyle products, and other direct-response E-Commerce offers. Understand conversion rates, EPC, CPA payouts, campaign profitability, and the economics of scaling paid traffic. Operate in markets such as the United States, Europe, or other established E-Commerce GEOs. Could realistically be approached about testing new E-Commerce offers within your first 30 days at Cash Network. You must be able to demonstrate that these relationships are current, relevant, and commercially actionable. We are not asking you to disclose confidential contact lists during the application process. However, you should be comfortable discussing the approximate size of your active affiliate network, the traffic sources and GEOs your affiliates operate in, the types of E-Commerce offers they promote, and how quickly you could begin activating those relationships. Experience in affiliate marketing alone is not sufficient. An existing, relevant E-Commerce affiliate book of business is a non-negotiable requirement. Key Responsibilities Affiliate Recruitment & Business Development Leverage your existing E-Commerce affiliate relationships to introduce and activate qualified media buyers on Cash Network offers. Recruit additional independent E-Commerce affiliates, performance marketers, media-buying teams, and agencies. Develop and manage a producing portfolio of E-Commerce affiliates. Identify new traffic sources, GEO opportunities, and affiliate recruitment channels. Build long-term relationships with high-performing affiliates and negotiate competitive payouts and growth opportunities. E-Commerce Offer & Campaign Development Collaborate with our Campaigns team to identify attractive E-Commerce offers for your affiliate network. Evaluate product-market fit, CPA payouts, EPCs, conversion rates, traffic restrictions, and offer competitiveness. Match the right offers with the right affiliates based on traffic source, GEO, audience, and campaign economics. Gather affiliate feedback and work with internal teams to improve offer performance. Identify opportunities to scale profitable offers and expand into additional products or GEOs. Revenue Growth & Performance Management Own the growth and performance of your E-Commerce affiliate portfolio. Move qualified affiliates from initial conversations to live traffic and revenue production. Monitor affiliate activity, conversion performance, revenue, network margins, and traffic quality. Develop and execute a measurable 30/60/90-day activation and growth plan. Build a sustainable, profitable E-Commerce revenue stream for Cash Network. Cross-Functional Collaboration Work directly with the Director of Affiliate Management and company leadership. Coordinate with Campaigns, Finance, Compliance, and Operations. Provide regular reporting on affiliate recruitment, activation, revenue performance, opportunities, and blockers. Help establish repeatable processes and best practices as the E-Commerce vertical grows. Required Qualifications All of the following are required: Direct experience managing E-Commerce affiliates at a CPA network, performance marketing network, affiliate agency, or comparable performance-based business. An existing, active book of independent media buyers or performance affiliates who promote physical-product E-Commerce offers. Proven experience recruiting, onboarding, activating, and managing external affiliates who generate measurable sales or conversions. Strong understanding of direct-response E-Commerce, including CPA/CPS models, advertiser payouts, affiliate payouts, EPC, conversion rates, and network margins. Working knowledge of paid traffic sources such as Meta/Facebook, Google, native advertising, and TikTok. Experience evaluating affiliate traffic quality, compliance requirements, and campaign profitability. Ability to independently develop affiliate relationships and turn those relationships into live campaigns and revenue. Strong written and verbal English communication skills. Comfortable working in a hands-on role with direct accountability for measurable business results. Preferred Qualifications Previous experience at an E-Commerce-focused CPA network or direct-response affiliate network. An existing portfolio of affiliates promoting physical consumer products in the US and/or European markets. Experience with direct-to-consumer (DTC) offers, straight-sale funnels, product landing pages, and CPA-based E-Commerce campaigns. Relationships with independent paid-media buyers, media-buying teams, and performance marketing agencies. Familiarity with affiliate tracking platforms such as Everflow, CAKE, TUNE, or similar systems. Experience helping launch or scale a new affiliate vertical. Established relationships with direct E-Commerce advertisers or product owners. What This Role Is NOT To help candidates understand the specific experience we need: This is not a Shopify store management or E-Commerce brand operations position. This is not an internal media-buying position where your primary responsibility is running ads yourself. This is not a general digital marketing, SEO, social media, or influencer management position. This is not a primary coupon, cashback, loyalty, or traditional retail publisher management role. This is not a position for someone whose affiliate experience is exclusively in non-E-Commerce verticals. This is not an entry-level position for someone looking to learn E-Commerce affiliate marketing. Experience in these areas may be valuable, but it does not replace the requirement for an existing network of active, physical-product E-Commerce performance affiliates. What We Offer Opportunity to help build a new business vertical within an established affiliate network. Direct access to company leadership and the Director of Affiliate Management. Existing affiliate tracking, advertiser operations, payments, compliance, and support infrastructure. Access to developing direct E-Commerce advertiser relationships and product offers. A remote working environment with international candidates considered. Significant opportunity for professional growth as the E-Commerce vertical scales. Competitive compensation based on relevant experience and the strength of your existing affiliate relationships. #J-18808-Ljbffr Cash Network LLC
