What I'm looking for

Performance & affiliate marketer, 5+ yrs scaling revenue partners across EU/UK (15 markets) + US, managing $2M+ annual spend. Drove 11% YoY US growth and 2.5% portfolio uplift (2025) via prospecting, commercial negotiation, and account development. Strong on CPS/hybrid models, unit economics, incrementality. Own targets, build pipeline ground-up, lead specialist teams.

I’m a performance and affiliate marketing specialist with 5+ years acquiring, onboarding, and scaling revenue-generating partners across EU/UK (15 markets) and the US, managing $2M+ in annual spend. I consistently grow net-new revenue—11% YoY in the US and 2.5% portfolio uplift in 2025—by combining publisher prospecting with consultative account development.

In my current role as a Senior Specialist Affiliate Marketing, I recruit and onboard net-new publishers across content, cashback, loyalty, and sub-network partners, and I lead quarterly negotiation cycles across AWIN and other platforms. I own affiliate revenue strategy across 15 EU/UK markets—accountable for revenue targets, COS control, AOV, and annual budget—and deliver 2.5% portfolio revenue uplift in 2025 through cross-functional activation campaigns.

Previously at Angara, I drove 11% YoY US revenue growth by recruiting new publishers, restructuring commissions, and building execution-accountability systems across $1.2M+ annual spend. Earlier, at CJ Affiliate (Publicis Groupe), I managed enterprise US client performance marketing programs with accountability for $2M+ budgets, improved revenue visibility with real-time forecasting dashboards, and cut operational inefficiency by 40% through process automation—while mentoring teams and applying commission elasticity, A/B payout testing, and unit-economics thinking to improve ROAS and contribution margin.
