Our Mission and Values

The Aragon Company is a performance marketing agency on a mission to be an indispensable source of growth for our clients. We specialize in customer acquisition for finance, home services, fintech, mobile apps, insurance, gaming, media, consumer, and emerging AI-first companies — helping them scale through affiliate marketing, pay-per-call, and strategic traffic partnerships. Our work is directly focused on our client's ROI, and we're passionate about delivering results that matter.

Whether you're on the front lines with clients or supporting our operations behind the scenes, every role at Aragon contributes to our clients' success and our collective growth.

Our Core Values:

2. We thrive in dynamic environments and move with agility.
3. We are passionate about performance.
4. We own our outcomes down to the smallest detail.
5. We cultivate momentum and build forward.

At Aragon, you'll be part of a company that's building something bigger. We deploy products, data, and marketing expertise to create innovative solutions to our clients' customer acquisition challenges. We invest in our people, encourage collaboration across teams, and create an environment where your contributions are recognized and valued. If you're looking for a place where performance matters, where you can grow your career, and where your work has real impact, you'll find your place here.

The Position:

Aragon Premium (https://aragonpremium.com) is the affiliate network within The Aragon Company. Our network connects advertisers with affiliates and vetted media buyers across a broad range of verticals including fintech, insurance, home services, rewarded gaming, mobile apps, consumer, and more. We are seeking an Affiliate Manager / Senior Affiliate Manager to recruit, develop, and scale affiliate partnerships across the full range of offers in our network. We have deep advertiser demand and a strong pipeline of affiliate activity to work — this is a relationship-driven, revenue-owning role for someone who can step in on day one and make an immediate impact. This is an individual contributor role reporting to the Network Director and Chief Growth Officer, working closely with the account management team.

Key Responsibilities:

Affiliate Recruitment & Network Growth

• Recruit direct media buyers and affiliate partners across Facebook, Google, native, TikTok, programmatic, push, in-app, email, content, mass media, and search channels.
• Build and maintain a structured affiliate recruitment pipeline with clear sourcing, qualification, and activation stages.
• Diversify the network into new channels and traffic types to reduce concentration risk and expand offer placement opportunities.
• Represent Aragon Premium at industry conferences including Affiliate Summit, LeadsCon, and MAU.

Affiliate Development & Scaling

• Onboard new affiliates quickly and get them live on the right offers from our existing base of advertiser demand.
• Grow revenue and profit by matching affiliates to new offers, verticals, and payout structures.
• Build durable, consultative relationships with affiliates — serving as their primary point of contact and day-to-day advocate inside Aragon Premium.
• Analyze partner-level performance (EPC, CVR, volume, margin) and act on the levers that scale it: creative, placement, caps, and payouts.
• Own a book of affiliate revenue against clear monthly and quarterly growth targets.

Partnering with Account Management

• Work closely with account managers to match affiliate supply to advertiser demand and fill open capacity across the offer portfolio.
• Relay advertiser-side quality and performance feedback to affiliates and adjust activity accordingly.
• Flag scaling opportunities, cap increases, and new offer needs to account management before affiliates hit ceilings.

Quality, Compliance & Performance

• Vet affiliates pre-activation, including evaluation of traffic sources, promotional methods, and economic viability.
• Monitor affiliate performance against EPC and CVR benchmarks by traffic source, and identify fraud signals or economically incoherent performance and act decisively to resolve.
• Enforce compliance standards in alignment with advertiser, network, and regulatory requirements.

Qualifications:

• 4-8+ years of affiliate or performance marketing experience, with the majority of it on the network side.
• Affiliate network experience is required — you have managed affiliates inside a network, not exclusively on the agency or advertiser side.
• Demonstrated experience managing affiliate media buyers and evaluating the economics of traffic sources.
• Hands-on Everflow experience — able to pull, read, and act on network reporting without support.
• Track record of hands-on affiliate recruitment, development, and revenue growth at scale.
• Relationship-driven sales instincts — comfortable prospecting, pitching offers, negotiating payouts, and closing.
• Experience across a broad mix of offer types (CPA, CPL, CPI, CPE) and verticals, with the ability to step into an active pipeline and produce from day one.
• Strong fraud detection instincts and pattern recognition for economically incoherent performance.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with mobile app offers (CPI, CPA, CPE) and lead generation offers in regulated verticals.
• Existing relationships with direct media buyers and publishers.
• Familiarity with additional affiliate tracking platforms (TUNE, Impact, CJ, or similar).
