Head of Affiliate & Influencer Marketing · Full Time or Fractional

About Elevated Health

Elevated Health is a direct-to-consumer telemedicine brand helping people take control of their weight, metabolic health, and longevity. We connect patients with licensed clinicians and deliver GLP-1s, weight-loss, and longevity medications straight to their door. We're growing fast in one of the most competitive, fastest-moving categories in consumer health — and we're building the acquisition engine to match.

The Role

We're hiring our first Head of Affiliate & Influencer Marketing to build our affiliate and influencer program from the ground up. This is a build-it-from-scratch role: you'll stand up the tech stack, recruit and negotiate with partners, and own the numbers. You'll be the person who turns creators, publishers, and affiliate networks into a durable, profitable acquisition channel.

This is an ownership role for an operator who's done it before. We're open to a full-time hire or a fractional engagement for the right person — tell us what you're looking for.

What You'll Do

Build the program from zero. Stand up and own our affiliate and influencer infrastructure — set up and manage platforms like Impact (or similar), tracking, attribution, payouts, and compliance workflows.

Own the partner portfolio. Recruit, negotiate, and manage relationships across influencers, creators, listicle and review sites, publishers, media partners, and affiliate networks.

Own the metrics. Carry the number for the channel — CAC, CPA, ROAS, conversion rate, LTV:CAC, and payback period. Set targets, report on them, and hit them.

Design the economics. Build commission structures, payout models, and incentive tiers that scale profitably and keep top partners engaged.

Scale what works. Test creators, offers, and placements; double down on winners; cut what doesn't convert.

Partner cross-functionally. Work closely with growth, creative, and clinical/compliance teams to keep messaging on-brand and within regulatory guardrails for a healthcare product.

What You'll Bring

Proven experience building a D2C affiliate and/or influencer program from scratch — not just running an existing one.

Hands-on expertise with affiliate platforms such as Impact (impact.com, Partnerize, CJ, or comparable platforms are a plus).

A track record managing relationships with influencers, listicle/review sites, publishers, and affiliate networks.

Real ownership of acquisition-cost and performance metrics (CAC, CPA, ROAS, LTV) — you think like an operator who's accountable for the P&L of your channel.

Strong negotiation skills and comfort structuring deals and commission models.

A test-and-learn mindset, fluency with data, and the ability to move fast in a scrappy, high-growth environment.

Nice to Have

Experience in health, wellness, supplements, or telemedicine — especially navigating advertising and compliance considerations in regulated categories.

Familiarity with the GLP-1 / weight-loss / longevity space.

An existing network of creators, publishers, and affiliate partners you can activate quickly.

Why Join

Build, don't maintain. This is a founding-level channel role with real ownership and budget.

Category momentum. Metabolic health and longevity are exploding, and we're positioned to win.

Flexibility. Fully remote, with full-time or fractional options for the right person.

Direct impact. Your work goes straight to the top of the funnel and straight to the bottom line.
