Role Overview

We are looking for an owner who can scale affiliate, cashback, coupon and fintech/super-app partnerships into a core revenue channel. The goal is low-CAC incremental sales and new-customer acquisition across our D2C website and marketplace.

Key Responsibilities

• Affiliate Programs
• Build and scale the in-house D2C affiliate program on Shopify Plus, covering partner onboarding, tracking links, payouts and fraud control.
• Manage third-party affiliate networks and portals (Cuelinks, Admitad, vCommission, Impact, etc.) and continuously add new publishers.
• Onboard influencers, creators, content/review sites and deal communities as affiliate partners.
• Cashback & Coupon Ecosystem
• Build partnerships and run campaigns with cashback portals (CashKaro, GoPaisa, etc.) and coupon portals (GrabOn, CouponDunia, etc.).
• Own the brand-wise coupon strategy: code structure, discount depth, exclusivity, leakage control, and monitoring of coupon abuse and brand-bidding.
• Super-App & Rewards Partnerships
• Launch offers, coupons, rewards and co‑branded campaigns on platforms such as PhonePe, Paytm, Google Pay and Zomato.
• Explore new platforms and bank, fintech and loyalty partnerships that bring in high‑intent customers.
• Planning & Campaigns
• Create a partner‑wise campaign calendar for launches, festive sales (Diwali, BFCM, EOSS) and key SKUs.
• Negotiate commission structures: CPS/CPA, tiered, performance‑linked and exclusive deals.
• Tracking, Analytics & Reporting
• Track clicks, orders, AOV, new vs. repeat customers, CAC, ROAS, commission payouts and incrementality.
• Ensure accurate attribution (UTM, coupon‑level, network‑level) and catch fake or duplicate conversions.
• Build weekly/monthly dashboards and partner scorecards; pause low performers and scale winners.
• Cross‑functional Coordination
• Work with Brand, Performance Marketing, E‑commerce, Creative, Finance and Tech teams on offers, creatives, tracking setup and payout reconciliation.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, Commerce or a related field (MBA/PGDM preferred).
• 3–6 years of experience in affiliate, partnerships, performance or e‑commerce marketing. Beauty, D2C or FMCG background preferred.
• Hands‑on experience with affiliate networks/platforms (Impact, Cuelinks, Admitad, vCommission) and cashback/coupon portals.
• Strong understanding of coupon‑led and offer‑led growth (CPS/CPA, margin math, abuse control).
• Strong negotiation, communication and relationship‑management skills.
• Advanced Excel/Google Sheets; working knowledge of GA4 and Shopify analytics.

Good to Have

• Experience with super‑app/fintech offer platforms (PhonePe, Paytm, GPay, Zomato) or bank/credit‑card reward partnerships.
• Understanding of marketplace affiliate programs (Amazon, Nykaa).

Success Metrics (first 6–12 months)

• Share of revenue and new‑customer count from the affiliate/partnership channel.
• Blended CAC and ROAS within target.
• Number of active partners and top‑partner concentration.
• Minimal coupon leakage and invalid payouts.
