Why Linktree

A Linktree not only points followers in the direction of your choosing — to your other social profiles, eCommerce store, or content you want to share — but it helps hold followers within your online ecosystem for longer. It allows users to share more, sell more, curate more and grow more. Today, with over 23 million users worldwide, we’re helping brands, artists, publishers, agencies and influencers better control their presence online. As the internet became more fragmented, we grew Linktree’s functionality to better serve those using it and to streamline the content-sharing process. We’re a passionate team of developers, designers, marketers and biz ops, committed to equipping content-creators with the best tools for getting their work seen. We’re headquartered in Melbourne, Australia and have offices in Sydney and Los Angeles. In 2019 we were thrilled to be one of CNBC’s ‘Upstart 100’, a list of the “brightest, most intriguing, young startups promising to become the great companies of tomorrow”. In March 2020, Fast Company honored us in their ‘Most Innovative Companies of 2020’ list, placing us number four in the Social Media category. Previous honorees of the Social Media fourth place include Glossier and Reddit.

  • Work cross-functionally with performance marketing, content, and paid media teams to amplify influencer content.
  • Analyze program performance, tracking key metrics like sign-ups, conversions, and engagement to iterate on strategy.
  • Stay ahead of social trends and platform updates, identifying opportunities to engage new audiences through creators.

Who We’re Looking For

  • 4+ years of experience in influencer marketing, partnerships, or affiliate marketing, ideally in a digital-first brand.
  • Proven experience building and scaling influencer or affiliate programs, with a focus on measurable performance.
  • Experience using AI-driven tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Apollo, Upfluence, or Grin) to automate outreach and scale partnerships.
  • Deep understanding of YouTube creator ecosystems, monetization strategies, and social trends.
  • Strong relationship-building and negotiation skills—able to pitch, onboard, and manage influencer partnerships efficiently.
  • Analytical mindset, comfortable using data to measure success and iterate on strategy.
