    Job Description

    Levanta is the leading affiliate marketing platform for marketplace sellers, helping Amazon, Shopify and Walmart brands unlock a scalable, cost-effective marketing channel through direct affiliate partnerships. With access to over 70,000 vetted publishers, influencers, affiliates, and media buyers in Levanta’s Creator Marketplace, sellers can drive high-quality external traffic to their stores, control commissions, improve organic search rankings, and benefit from referral kickbacks on sales generated by their affiliates.

    We're looking for a hungry enterprise seller to own the full cycle of signing new retail marketplace partnerships. You'll be responsible for sourcing, developing, and closing multi-year platform deals with major retailers. This is a high-visibility role working directly with the founders, with a clear path to building and leading a team as the pipeline scales.

    This role is focused exclusively on new logo acquisition. The ideal candidate thrives in the earliest stages of a deal cycle and has a track record of opening doors and closing business in markets where you're building awareness from the ground up.

    What You'll Do:

    • Own the full sales cycle from outbound prospecting through signed contract on new retail marketplace partnerships
    • Work a mix of self-sourced pipeline and warm opportunities already in motion
    • Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder deals across marketplace, affiliate/creator, and retail media teams at major retailers
    • Develop a repeatable outbound motion targeting retail marketplace and ecommerce leadership
    • Represent Levanta at industry conferences and events
    • Partner with founders on deal structure, negotiation strategy, and commercial terms
    • Feed market intelligence back into product and GTM strategy

    What We're Looking For:

    • 5+ years of enterprise SaaS sales with demonstrated ability to close complex, multi-stakeholder deals
    • Background in retail media, marketplace technology, or ecommerce SaaS strongly preferred
    • Experience in affiliate or creator marketing is a plus
    • Comfortable selling to VP and C-suite buyers across business units
    • Outbound hunter mentality with the patience and polish to work long-cycle enterprise deals
    • Strong commercial instincts, you can build a business case, negotiate terms, and know when to push
    • Startup-ready: you build the playbook, you don't wait for one

    A note about comp:

    • Competitive base with significant commission upside tied to closed marketplace partnerships. This is a role where top performers have outsized and uncapped commission upside.

    What Levanta Offers:

    • A dynamic and supportive work environment where innovation and creativity are encouraged.
    • Competitive salary and benefits package.
    • Open vacation and sick policy, take the time you need.
    • Opportunity for professional growth and advancement within a rapidly expanding startup.
    • A culture that values diversity, inclusion, and the impact of every team member on our success.
    • Must have a permanent address in one of our hub states: California, Florida, New York, Ohio, Utah, Texas, Michigan, or Washington.
