Responsibilities
Build a world-class holistic affiliate and referral marketing strategy. You'll determine, pitch, and implement core changes to the program to scale impact and improve efficiency. This includes:

Building a brand-new customer referral engine and scaling it into one of Circle's biggest channels
Collaborating with the Brand Partnerships team to make revenue share agreements a core component of creator partnerships on a go-forward basis, helping massively scale this P&L and unlocking new opportunities for creator partnerships
Own all affiliate, referral and rev-share operations and reporting. As the owner of the program, you'll 'be in the weeds' executing the tactical plan every day to drive growth
