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
