Summary Generated by Built In

Levanta is the creator affiliate platform built for modern e-commerce. We connect brands, creators, publishers, and marketplaces through a single platform for creator discovery, activation, partnership management, payments, and cross-channel performance measurement. Through our Creator Marketplace and AI-powered Social Discovery, brands can access more than 90,000 vetted creators and millions more across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, building measurable creator partnerships across Amazon, Walmart, Shopify, and other retail channels.

Following our recent $22 million Series B, which brought our total funding to more than $43 million, we are investing further in our technology, our team, and our expansion across the retail ecosystem. We are building the infrastructure for Creator Commerce Media and creating more opportunities for brands to grow, creators to earn, and marketplaces to generate measurable demand.

Levanta is hiring a Publisher Development Manager to lead publisher acquisition and growth across our live Amazon markets in EMEA — UK, Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands, and Spain. This role is squarely focused on Amazon: identifying, onboarding, and optimizing sub-networks, comparison shopping sites, media buyers, and content publishers that drive GMV for Amazon-side brands in these markets.

You'll report directly to the VP of Marketplace and work closely with our Creator team, which is deeply technical and hands-on with tracking and integrations — you won't have a dedicated engineer on partner calls, so you'll need to be comfortable troubleshooting tracking and attribution issues yourself, escalating only when something is genuinely broken on our end. This is a relationship-driven, technically fluent role: equal parts partnership development and hands-on problem-solving.

What You'll Do:

Strategic partnership development

  • Identify and cultivate relationships with sub-networks, comparison shopping sites, and high-value content publishers across the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands, and Spain
  • Build a prioritized target list of publishers and sub-networks in each market, with a tailored outreach approach per segment
  • Negotiate partnership terms that align with our Amazon-side business goals

Partnership optimization & growth

  • Analyze the performance of existing EMEA publisher partnerships, including underperforming ones, and build plans to re-engage or grow them
  • Work directly with partners to optimize product feeds, improve conversion, and unlock growth
  • Track the competitive landscape across EMEA affiliate/publisher ecosystems and surface new opportunities

Technical implementation & troubleshooting

  • Own technical onboarding for new publisher partners — API integrations, tracking setup, and attribution accuracy — largely independently
  • Troubleshoot tracking and integration issues directly with partners; escalate internally only when something requires engineering
  • Maintain clear technical documentation partners can use to self-serve during setup

Performance analysis & reporting

  • Track and report on partnership performance — GMV, conversion rate, activation status — across the EMEA portfolio
  • Surface trends and insights that inform where to prioritize time and resources next

Cross-functional collaboration

  • Partner with our Creator team to keep messaging and territory approach consistent as the EMEA publisher program grows
  • Share partner feedback with Product to inform the roadmap where relevant

What You Bring:

  • 5-7 years of experience in affiliate marketing, partnership development, or business development — direct experience with sub-networks, comparison shopping sites, or similar publisher types required
  • Hands-on experience with API integrations and a strong working understanding of affiliate attribution and tracking technology
  • Comfort troubleshooting technical integration issues independently, without a dedicated engineer on the call
  • Familiarity with affiliate platform technologies (Impact, CJ, AWIN, or similar) and comfort reading technical documentation
  • Strong negotiation skills 
  • Self-starter, comfortable with ambiguity, entrepreneurial — this role builds a lot of its own process rather than following an established playbook
  • Based in the UK or Netherlands
  • Fluent English required

Nice to have:

  • German, French, or Spanish language skills — our biggest secondary markets after the UK

Success Metrics:

  • Number of strategic partnerships activated (sub-networks, comparison shopping sites, content publishers) across EMEA markets
  • GMV and revenue generated through activated EMEA publisher partnerships
  • Partnership activation rate and time-to-revenue
  • Performance improvement of existing/underperforming partnerships

**This role is location specific to the United Kingdom or the Netherlands.**

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, Washington, Colorado, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, or DC. 

Skills Required

  • 5–7 years of experience in affiliate marketing, partnership development, or business development
  • Direct experience with sub-networks, comparison shopping sites, or similar publisher types
  • Hands-on experience with API integrations
  • Strong working understanding of affiliate attribution and tracking technology
  • Ability to troubleshoot technical integration issues independently
  • Familiarity with affiliate platforms such as Impact, CJ, AWIN, or similar
  • Ability to read technical documentation
  • Strong negotiation skills
  • Self-starter comfortable with ambiguity and entrepreneurial environments
  • Based in the United Kingdom or Netherlands
  • Fluent English
  • German, French, or Spanish language skills
