• Managing partner performance and improving traffic quality
• Monitoring key acquisition and revenue metrics, including FTD, NGR, CPA, ROI, Retention, and LTV
• Identifying growth opportunities based on market data and partner performance
• Working closely with Product, CRM, Analytics, Finance, and senior management teams
• Defining affiliate processes, reporting standards, and partner evaluation criteria
• Participating in recruitment and building the affiliate team as the project scales
• Managing the affiliate budget and ensuring sustainable return on investment

What We Are Looking For

• Strong experience in affiliate marketing within the iGaming industry
• Proven experience working with Canada, Australia, and New Zealand markets
• A relevant network of affiliate, SEO, and media partners
• Hands-on experience launching or scaling affiliate programs
• Strong understanding of acquisition funnels, player value, and traffic monetisation
• Confidence working with performance metrics and commercial data
• Strong negotiation, relationship management, and leadership skills
• Ability to work independently and make decisions in a fast-moving environment
• Fluent English

What We Offer

• The opportunity to build a major international acquisition function from scratch
• Direct influence on commercial strategy and business growth
• A high level of autonomy and ownership
• Fast decision-making without unnecessary corporate bureaucracy
• Strong financial backing and long-term support from investors
• Access to the infrastructure, expertise, and resources of an international holding company
• The opportunity to build and lead your own team
• Competitive compensation with a performance-based bonus structure
• Fully remote cooperation
• A key leadership position in a project with significant international growth potential

We are looking for someone who combines strategic thinking with a hands-on approach and is ready to take full ownership of acquisition performance across several priority markets.
