Your Role at impact.com

The Marketplace Growth Manager, Merchandising is a newly created role central to driving visibility, engagement, and growth across all sides of impact.com's Marketplace. This role owns the merchandising strategy for brands, products, publishers, and creators — curating, positioning, and promoting the right partners to the right audiences at the right time — ensuring the Marketplace is compelling, discoverable, and conversion-ready across the full ecosystem. The ideal candidate brings a creative eye, a data-driven mindset, and a relentless focus on reducing manual work through AI-powered tools, automation, and scalable systems. Success in this role means brands, products, publishers, and creators don't just exist in the Marketplace — they get found, get chosen, and get results — and the team behind it isn't buried in manual lift to make it happen. This position reports to the Sr. Director, Marketplace Growth.

What You'll Do

Are you obsessed with making great content perform — and making the work behind it smarter? Our ideal candidate combines editorial instinct with analytical rigor and a bias toward automation, scale, and process efficiency. You know how to position brands, products, publishers, and creators compellingly across a multi-sided marketplace — and you know how to use AI to do it faster, leaner, and at greater scale.

Your job will:

Focus on driving discoverability and partnership conversion through strategic merchandising — curating partner content across brands, products, publishers, and creators, managing editorial calendars, and executing personalized, multi-channel promotional programs that connect the right partners with the right opportunities. Equally important, you will lead the charge on reducing manual merchandising lift through automation, smarter tooling, and cross-functional process improvement.

More specifically, you'll get to:

Own merchandising end-to-end across brands, products, publishers, and creators — develop and execute strategies to curate, position, and promote all partner types across the Marketplace, increasing discoverability, selection rates, and partnership activation across the full ecosystem.
Build and manage editorial calendar(s) — plan and execute proactive, structured merchandising calendars that drives consistent visibility for brands, products, publishers, and creators across in-app placements, featured lists, mailers, and notification prompts.
Lead automation and scaling of merchandising operations — identify and eliminate manual processes by building dynamic, auto-updating partner lists, automated workflows, and AI-powered merchandising programs that scale reach and relevance across all four partner segments without scaling headcount.
Leverage AI tools to work smarter — actively adopt and advocate for AI-powered solutions across content creation, partner list curation, audience segmentation, and performance reporting to continuously reduce time spent on repetitive tasks and free up capacity for strategic work.
Partner cross-functionally to improve processes and reduce manual lift — work closely with Product, Data Science, Engineering, and Operations teams to identify friction points in merchandising workflows across brands, products, publishers, and creators, advocate for tooling improvements, and co-develop resources that make the team more efficient and scalable.
