Head of Paid Influencer Partnerships

Head of Paid Influencer Partnerships Marketing · Full-time · Remote (US) · Core hours 9-5 EST About Nysonian Nysonian is a 9-figure consumer products company built around two brands: NOBL and Flo Pilates . We grew revenue 8x in 2025 and are building the next phase of the US-based business across physical products, software, and subscription experiences. NOBL is a functional travel brand built around a simple idea: travel products should solve real problems, not just look better. Every feature is designed to eliminate friction from the travel experience — from seamless organization and easy access, to tracking, connectivity, and protection. Flo Pilates brings studio-quality Pilates into the home through connected fitness hardware, content, and subscription experiences. Across both brands, we're building product ecosystems that deepen the customer relationship beyond the initial purchase and create recurring value over time. We're looking for builders who want autonomy, speed, and the ability to shape products at scale. The Opportunity Nysonian is hiring a Head of Paid Influencer Partnerships to build and scale a performance-driven paid influencer program from the ground up across NOBL and Flo Pilates — negotiating and managing paid creator deals as a predictable, measurable growth channel, backed by rigorous analysis of what's actually working. This role reports to the Co-Founder and works closely with the growth marketing team. What You'll Own Own the paid influencer budget (six-figure monthly spend) across both brands — sourcing creators, negotiating fees and contract terms (usage rights, exclusivity, deliverables, renewal options), and deciding where to double down or pull back. Build the analytical framework to evaluate paid influencer performance — CAC, ROAS, and incremental revenue per creator/campaign — and use it to drive real-time budget and negotiation decisions, not just post-campaign reporting. Stand up and/or scale an affiliate program from the ground up, including platform selection, commission structuring, and creator/affiliate recruitment. Manage a pipeline and roster of paid creator relationships across tiers (nano through celebrity) globally, including contract renewals and renegotiation as performance data comes in. Manage a small team to execute sourcing, negotiation support, and content coordination as the program scales. Partner with brand and creative teams to ensure creator content maintains brand standards while still performing against paid deal terms. Skills & Qualifications 5+ years running paid influencer partnerships for a consumer or DTC brand, with direct ownership of budgets in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and hands-on contract negotiation experience (fees, usage rights, exclusivity, deliverables). Strong analytical skills — comfortable pulling and interpreting performance data (CAC, ROAS, incremental revenue by creator/campaign) to make negotiation and budget decisions Track record of building or significantly scaling an affiliate program at a high-growth consumer brand — strongly preferred. Experience negotiating and managing paid creator relationships across multiple international markets, not just US-based creators — strongly preferred. Fluency with influencer and affiliate platforms — e.g. GRIN, Aspire, CreatorIQ, Superfiliate, ShareASale, or similar Comfortable owning a P&L-style budget with minimal oversight and reporting on it in terms leadership can act on. Prior experience managing a small team or a network of freelancers/agencies. Comfortable working daily with LLM tools (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar) — using them for negotiation prep, contract review, performance analysis, creator briefs, and reporting. You don't need to be an AI expert, but you should already have this in your workflow, not be learning it on the job. This Role Is Not a Fit If You've primarily run organic/gifting or brand-awareness influencer programs without owning paid budgets, negotiating contracts, or being measured on CAC/ROAS. You need an established creator roster and existing tooling handed to you — this program is being built from the ground up. You prefer to specialize in one channel or one brand — this role covers both paid influencer and affiliate, across two distinct brands, simultaneously. You're looking for a highly structured environment with layers of approval — this team moves fast and expects senior people to make judgment calls without waiting for sign-off. Compensation We use a market-based approach to compensation. The expected total compensation range for this role is: USD $140,000 to $180,000.
