About the Role

LeadVision is looking for an experienced Performance Partnerships Manager to grow and expand our network of publishers, affiliates, and lead-generation partners.

This is a relationship-driven role for someone who understands the performance marketing and lead-generation space and knows how to turn strong industry relationships into profitable, long-term partnerships. You’ll manage existing partners, develop new opportunities, represent LeadVision at industry events, and work closely with internal teams to support partner growth and integrations.

What You’ll Do

• Manage and grow relationships with existing publishers, affiliates, networks, and lead-generation partners.
• Identify, prospect, recruit, and onboard new high-quality partners.
• Build a pipeline of new partnership opportunities through outbound prospecting, referrals, networking, and industry relationships.
• Negotiate CPLs, payouts, volume commitments, caps, and other partnership terms.
• Understand partner traffic sources, lead-generation capabilities, pricing models, and performance expectations.
• Work with internal teams and external partners to support onboarding and technical integrations.
• Monitor lead quality, volume, revenue, and profitability to identify opportunities for growth.
• Develop strategies to increase profitable volume from high-performing partners.
• Represent LeadVision at affiliate, performance marketing, and lead-generation conferences.
• Stay informed on industry trends, technologies, platforms, and emerging partnership opportunities.
• Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, Operations, Technology, and leadership.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in affiliate marketing, publisher development, strategic partnerships, business development, performance marketing, or lead generation.
• Experience directly managing publisher, affiliate, network, or lead-generation partnerships.
• Proven ability to develop new business through outbound prospecting and relationship-building.
• Strong understanding of CPL and performance-based lead-generation models.
• Experience negotiating pricing, payouts, volume, and performance-based agreements.
• Familiarity with Ping/Post, lead distribution, bidding, lead routing, and/or real-time lead-generation environments.
• Strong relationship-management, communication, and negotiation skills.
• Business judgment with the ability to evaluate partnerships based on quality, profitability, and scalability.
• Comfortable owning relationships from initial outreach through onboarding and ongoing growth.
• Willingness to travel to relevant conferences and industry events.

Preferred

• An established network of publishers, affiliates, networks, lead generators, or media buyers.
• Experience with a lead-generation company, lead exchange, affiliate network, or performance marketing organization.
• Experience with Ping/Post platforms, lead distribution systems, APIs, or similar integrations.
• Knowledge of CPL, CPA, revenue-share, bidding, and other performance-based compensation models.
• Experience in home services, heavy machinery, or other high-intent lead-generation verticals.
• Knowledge of performance marketing compliance and lead-quality standards.

What We Offer

• $90,000–$120,000 base salary, depending on experience
• Performance-based bonus and/or commission opportunities
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Employer-matching 401(k)
• Profit-sharing opportunities
• 33–35 paid days off during your first year, including company breaks
• Hybrid schedule and Flex Time
• Fitness stipend and office gym
• Parking reimbursement
• Home office supplies provided

What Success Looks Like

In your first several months, you’ll focus on understanding LeadVision’s existing partner ecosystem, building strong relationships with current partners, and developing a pipeline of new opportunities.

Success ultimately means growing LeadVision’s partner network, lead supply, and revenue while maintaining strong quality and profitability.

The Person We’re Looking For

You’re a relationship builder who can walk into a conference and comfortably start a conversation, but you don’t rely solely on an existing network to create opportunities. You’re equally comfortable picking up the phone, prospecting into a new company, and building a relationship from scratch.

You understand the lead-generation ecosystem, follow through consistently, and know that the strongest partnerships are built over time.

Most importantly, you don’t simply manage partnerships. You grow them.
