Influencer Affiliate Director - TikTok Shop + Creator Commerce for Prestige Beauty (Remote, NYC)
OGAKI
Job Description
The Opportunity: Why OGAKI Will Change Your Career
We are not a generalist social agency. OGAKI is the social‑first agency for prestige beauty brands, named Best Social Media + Influencer Agency by BeautyMatter and Best Digital Agency by The PR Net. Our clients (EltaMD, NuFACE, Laura Mercier, bareMinerals, Dr.
Diamond's Metacine, Omorovicza, and others) trust us to build culturally relevant, high‑performing programs that drive both brand equity and measurable business impact.
Here's What Makes Us Different
- One niche, real depth. We only work with prestige beauty brands. That means you’ll develop expertise in the specific category of the beauty industry where craft, brand equity, and performance all need to coexist. You’ll work with founders, CMOs, and brand leads who hold themselves (and us) to a higher bar.
- A senior seat with practice ownership. You will not inherit a built‑out function. You will define it. The TikTok Shop offering, the affiliate roster, the commission structures, the reporting standards, the way we sell this work into new business. You’ll set the strategy and own the outcome. Few seats in this industry give you that level of practice ownership inside a roster that’s already this strong.
- An award‑winning roster that opens doors. The brands on our client list are the ones you’ve used and recommended. Our work has been named best in class by BeautyMatter and The PR Net. The relationships you build here (with creators, talent managers, brand teams) compound for the rest of your career in beauty.
Your Mission
You’ll lead scaling OGAKI’s TikTok Shop and influencer affiliate practice for prestige beauty clients. You’ll help refine the offering, run the programs, own the performance, and partner with brand leads to turn social commerce into a durable revenue line for our clients.
What You’ll Own
1. TikTok Shop + Affiliate Practice Build
- Design OGAKI’s TikTok Shop offering end to end. Scope, pricing, deliverables, reporting standards, and rollout across the right slice of our client roster.
- Grow our existing ShopMy and affiliate programs across the client roster, tailored to each brand’s goals.
- Codify the internal playbooks, workflows, and best practices so the practice continues to scale.
2. Creator Roster + Program Strategy
- Build and manage a creator affiliate roster across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Substack, and emerging platforms. Recruit, onboard, nurture, retain.
- Design seeding, commission, and incentive structures that actually move GMV, not just impressions.
- Oversee and support the management of the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center, creator communications, and activations day to day.
3. Client Partnership + Performance
- Sit in front of prestige beauty CMOs and brand leads as the social commerce expert in the room. Lead the strategy, run the reporting, own the relationship.
- Analyze performance against GMV, conversion, CAC, ROAS, and affiliate attribution. Translate the numbers into next steps the client and the team can act on.
- Support new business pitches where social commerce expertise is the differentiator.
Who You Are: Non‑Negotiables & Must‑Haves
Deal‑Makers (You Need All of These)
- 6 to 10 years across influencer marketing, affiliate, or creator commerce. Agency time strongly preferred, ideally in beauty and wellness.
- You’ve launched or scaled a TikTok Shop or influencer affiliate program before. Not consulted on one. Built one. You can speak to the numbers behind it.
- Performance fluency. You read GMV, conversion, CAC, ROAS, and affiliate attribution as a first language. You can forecast, interpret, and recommend with confidence.
- Client‑facing polish. You can hold the room with a prestige beauty CMO, walk into a pitch, and walk out with the next step booked.
- Operator instincts. You can manage multiple accounts at once, write strong creative briefs, build internal process, and keep a roster organized without dropping balls.
- NYC‑accessible. This role is fully remote, but you need to show up in person for client meetings, brand activations, events, and new business pitches as needed.
Deal‑Breakers (Any of These = Not a Fit)
- No hands‑on TikTok Shop or affiliate program experience in the last 3 years.
- Never owned a performance number tied to creator‑led commerce.
- Looking for an executional seat where the strategy is already decided.
- No interest in (or instinct for) prestige beauty as a category.
The Package: What's In It for You
Compensation
$100,000 to $130,000 per year, depending on experience.
The Perks That Matter
- 100% remote, NYC‑based or accessible for in‑person client moments
- Deep specialization in prestige beauty social commerce
- Direct partnership with Jenny Le, our VP Influencer, on creator strategy and roster building
- Practice ownership from day one
- A seat at the table on new business and the future direction of OGAKI’s commerce practice
The Process: Fast, Transparent, Respectful
- Apply with your resume and a short note: one TikTok Shop or affiliate program you’ve launched or scaled and the results you drove.
- Initial Conversation (30 min) – A first conversation with our team to understand your background, what you’ve built, and where you want to take your career.
- Founder Interview with Renee Ogaki – Culture fit, values alignment, and your vision for the social commerce practice at OGAKI.
- Reference check + offer within 1-2 weeks of the final interview.
