• Analyse large data sets and performance reports to optimise campaigns and negotiate commercial terms
• Develop and sustain strong, long-term partner relationships, acting as the main commercial point of contact
• Negotiate commercial terms (payouts, commission plans, budgets) and manage partner expectations to create sustainable, mutually beneficial agreements
• Coordinate day-to-day relationships with partners, including commercial, legal, financial and marketing aspects
• Prospect, qualify and onboard new advertisers that are a strong fit for our verticals
• Constantly analyse the market and competitive landscape and translate insights into concrete actions for your portfolio
• Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders to optimise performance and implement improvements
• Travel to industry conferences and partner meetings to represent We Love X, meet clients and strengthen partnerships

This is what you’ve got

• Hands-on experience in account management within the affiliate industry
• Proven track record in negotiating commercial terms and managing revenue-generating partner portfolios
• Strong analytical skills and confidence in working with spreadsheets and BI / analytics tools (e.g. Qlik, Tableau or similar)
• High attention to detail and a data-driven approach to campaign optimisation and forecasting
• Excellent relationship-building and communication skills, with the ability to build trust and rapport with partners
• Structured working style with strong organisational and prioritisation skills, especially when handling multiple campaigns and deadlines
• Holistic thinking, always considering the impact of your activities on other teams, partners and the overall business
• Resilient and persistent mindset – comfortable with constant change, ongoing negotiations and meticulous follow-up
• Fluency in business English; German skills are a strong plus
