Over 8 million Australians turn to News Corps’ stable of trusted news and lifestyle brands each year for recommendations on the best deals and products to buy.

+ Lead partnership discussions with tier one ecommerce partners and create and launch initiatives that are market-leading and foster growth for both parties
+ Foster long-term relationships with News Corp’s key retailer and brand partners and manage the negotiation of commission rate and commercial agreements
+ Oversee the go-to-market of e Commerce flat fee packages, in collaboration with the Partnerships Manager
+ Achieve shared revenue targets in close collaboration with the ecommerce commercial team

+ Distill affiliate data into clear, actionable insights to guide our editorial team, and report on merchant- and site-level performance as needed
+ Contribute to a team culture that is innovative, inquisitive and collaborative
**Who are you?**
+ Track record of managing high-growth partnerships, whether that be at an agency, affiliate network or publisher.
+ Sales experience is an advantage but not a prerequisite
