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

- Develop a repeatable outbound motion targeting retail marketplace and ecommerce leadership
- Represent Levanta at industry conferences and events

- 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:
