As VP, Global Affiliate Marketing & Live Commerce, you will lead the global affiliate and live commerce demand engine for Shark and Ninja — an affiliate community and a live commerce operation that together scale toward $1B in attributed demand. You will lead teams across our markets, own the program and the technology beneath it, and set the standard for how affiliate creator-led and live commerce is run at global scale.

Keep Building the Affiliate Community Others Try to Copy

Our affiliate community is world-class today. Your job is to keep it there as the space matures and competition for the best affiliates intensifies. Deepen and extend it: sourcing and vetting, seeding and sampling operations, activation-to-first-sale velocity, tiering and progression, and the retention of affiliates who prove they can move product. Build category expertise into the organization so that a creator selling a robot vacuum is briefed differently from one selling an outdoor pizza oven — the demo, the objection, and the buying moment are not the same. Treat commission architecture, incentive design, and content velocity as levers to be modeled and tuned rather than defaults to be inherited.

Advance the SharkNinja Affiliate Program and the Technology Beneath It

Take a program that is already producing and sharpen it end to end — tiers, economics, incentives, rules of engagement, and creator experience. Partner with our Product team to specify and build the technology that scales it: creator CRM and discovery, the asset and briefing library, content deployment, link generation and deep linking, cross-platform attribution, payout operations, and the clipping infrastructure that turns a single livestream or hero demo into a high volume of shoppable placements. The measure of success is a program that is difficult to replicate and harder to leave.

Elevate Our Highest-Performing Affiliates into Long-Term Brand Advocates

Our top affiliates are already among the most effective advocates the brand has. Evolve how we recognize, develop, and support them — early access to product and roadmap, co-created content and collections, meaningful commercial terms, and genuine standing inside the business — so that the creators driving disproportionate value experience SharkNinja as a long-term partner rather than a transactional channel. Design the tier structure, the benefits, and the progression path that make advancing within our community something creators actively pursue.

Expand Affiliate Creator-Led Commerce Across Every Channel

Deepen and expand affiliate creator-led commerce across the channels we operate — TikTok Shop, Meta, YouTube, marketplace creator programs, and our owned ecommerce properties — and move decisively onto new commerce surfaces as they mature. Each carries a distinct attribution model, content standard, commission structure, and amplification toolset. Master them centrally so that creators do not have to: our objective is for creators to spend their time on content and selling, not on resizing assets, managing links, and navigating platform administration. Build toward a state where a single affiliate relationship generates demand across multiple destinations, and where performance signal from one channel improves the others.

Take Live Commerce to a World-Class Standard

Lead live commerce globally and raise it from a strong operation to a leading one. Lead the live teams, develop the host bench, and hold agency and MCN partners to a standard of operational excellence that sustains production quality while keeping cost per broadcast hour disciplined. Own show formats, run of show, programming calendar, studio operating model, and tentpole moments — along with the operational detail that determines whether any of it works: inventory alignment to live moments, offer construction, replay and clip monetization, and the transition between live and always-on. Build toward continuous streaming with programming compelling enough to hold an audience that did not arrive intending to shop. Live must sell effectively, represent the brand well, and do both profitably.

Lead a Global Organization and a Center of Excellence

Lead the global affiliate organization, including in-region teams embedded against local commercial P&Ls, so that a global standard and local commercial reality reinforce each other rather than compete. Stand up a center of excellence that codifies what works and exports it — playbooks, briefing standards, creative libraries, tooling, training, and talent — so that new markets launch with a running start and mature markets keep compounding. Keep the organization lean enough to redeploy against whatever is working, across in-house teams and agency partners alike.

We are less interested in years served than in what you have actually built and sold. The strongest candidates will bring a genuinely hybrid background — commerce, merchandising, creator partnerships, marketing, and production — and almost nobody has all five. Tell us which of these you own outright, which you have run alongside, and which you would hire for.

This is a commerce role. If your background is brand social or influencer marketing measured in reach, impressions, and engagement rather than units, revenue, and margin, this will not be the right fit — and we would rather say so here than discover it together in round three.
