Affiliate Marketing Manager

About Truemed

Our mission is to reverse chronic illness back to 1970s levels and make Americans healthy again. We will do this by shifting hundreds of billions of dollars away from our current broken healthcare system, and towards effective lifestyle interventions and prevention. Today's healthcare system spends less than 3% of the $4.3T in annual spending on prevention. This has to change.

Today, 95% of all medical costs go to treating illness. Our goal is to empower people to invest in healthy habits today rather than treating illness in the future. We do this by supporting these 5 habits that research shows are tied to significantly improved health outcomes:

1. Eating healthy food

2. Getting an adequate quantity and quality of sleep

3. Increasing movement and exercise and reducing sedentary behavior

4. Reducing chronic stress

5. Increasing sunlight and minimizing environmental toxins

Truemed enables patients to use pretax HSA/FSA funds to buy healthy food, exercise equipment, and supplements. We support brands like Peloton, Eight Sleep, Momentous, and hundreds of others. We're building the infrastructure that allows health and wellness merchants to accept the $150+ billion tied up in HSA and FSA accounts. By allowing consumers to spend these pre-tax dollars on goods that make them healthier, we'll incentivize consumers to invest in their health and begin to reverse the explosion in chronic illness that's plagued the US for the last 50 years.

Why This Role Matters

• Truemed's marketplace sends meaningful, high-intent HSA/FSA traffic to merchant partners like Peloton, NOBULL, REP Fitness, and dozens of other leading health and wellness brands. Today, that demand generation happens organically. This role transforms it into a structured affiliate program where merchants agree to formalized terms in exchange for co-marketing commitments and support from Truemed.

• The Affiliate Marketing Manager owns the affiliate program end-to-end — consolidating Truemed's affiliate footprint across platforms and channels into a single operating model, refining and scaling the merchant framework, and building a program that turns Truemed's marketing efforts into a revenue-driving asset.

• This role directly impacts Truemed's revenue diversification and strengthens the strategic value of every merchant relationship.

About the Role

• We are hiring an Affiliate Marketing Manager to own Truemed's affiliate program — a distinct, opt-in merchant program that complements the Truemed merchant experience.

• This is an operator role inside Marketing. You'll own the program's economics, platform operations across partner affiliate networks (Impact, UpPromote, CJ, Everflow), program reporting (revenue, enrollment, deliverable fulfillment), and the value narrative that positions the affiliate program to prospective members.

• You'll work closely with our Partner Marketing, Lifecycle Marketing, Sales, and Merchant Success teams, who execute the deliverables and run the commercial conversations this role supports.

What You'll Do

Program Operations

• Own the Truemed Affiliate Program end-to-end: membership operations, tracking setup, commission structure, payout operations, and ongoing program management across multiple affiliate networks.

• Define and maintain the program's commission structure and member benefits — what affiliate members pay, what they receive, and the economics that make it work for both the merchant and Truemed.

• Partner with Finance to structure payment flows, invoicing, and revenue recognition for affiliate-sourced transactions across all networks.

Deliverables Fulfillment

• Maintain and evolve the standard set of deliverables offered at each enrollment level.

• Serve as the single point of truth for each affiliate member's deliverable schedule — briefing affiliate-specific asks into Partner Marketing, Lifecycle Marketing, and other execution teams, and confirming everything lands.

• Maintain the affiliate program's marketing inventory: the full list of deliverables available to members, their quality standards, and their capacity constraints.

Program Growth & Reporting

• Build and maintain the value story and ROI case for the affiliate program, both internally and externally.

• Act as the affiliate program's subject matter expert in merchant conversations — presenting inventory, explaining economics, and walking merchants through what they unlock by opting in.

• Deliver quarterly affiliate-member reporting so every member sees the data that justifies their investment.

• Own program-level reporting: member count, enrollment pipeline, affiliate-attributed revenue, deliverable fulfillment rate, and churn.

What Success Looks Like

• The Truemed Affiliate Program runs on a single, documented operating model with clear membership economics, deliverable standards, and tracking across every affiliate network.

• A growing number of merchants are opted into the affiliate program, with tracking, commissions, and deliverable schedules confirmed across the full platform stack.

• Affiliate-attributed revenue becomes a measurable and growing line item, reported consistently and reconciled cleanly across networks.

• Every affiliate member receives their agreed-upon deliverables, on spec and on time.

• Merchant partners view the affiliate program as a fair value exchange because the data clearly shows what Truemed drives for their business.

• Sales, Merchant Success, and Partner Marketing have current, data-backed value materials that make the affiliate conversation easier.

• Leadership has clear visibility into the affiliate pipeline, enrollment progress, and program revenue through reliable reporting.

Who You Are

• Operationally rigorous — you build systems, playbooks, and calendars that keep a multi-platform, multi-member program clean.

• Data-driven — you lead with numbers and can translate transaction data into compelling value stories, program economics, and member reporting.

• A self-starter who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth environments and is comfortable building a program from scratch.

• An excellent communicator and subject matter expert — you can present a program's inventory and value proposition directly to merchant marketing teams without it becoming a sales pitch.

• Energized by cross-functional collaboration.

Compensation and Benefits

• Comp and equity in the top decile for Series A startups

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance with employer sponsored HSA contributions

• 401(k)

• Unlimited PTO
