About EcomSwap

EcomSwap is a boutique M&A advisory and acquisitions platform focused exclusively on high-performing Direct-to-Consumer (DTC), e-commerce, and digital brands in the US, EU, UK and AUS. We partner with founders who have built real businesses and guide them through structured, professional exits with qualified global buyers.

Our environment is fast-moving, performance-driven, and execution-focused. We value ownership, clarity, and measurable contribution. As we scale our seller acquisition engine, we are seeking a commercially sharp Growth manager who can build and manage a high-leverage partnership ecosystem within the DTC and agency landscape.

The Role

This is a performance-critical leadership position responsible for architecting and scaling EcomSwap's agency-driven seller acquisition engine.

You will build structured partnerships with agencies, operators, and ecosystem stakeholders that serve 78 figure DTC and e-commerce brands. Your mandate is to create predictable, qualified founder inflow into the Advisory team.

This role owns the seller journey from ecosystem introduction through mandate onboarding.

Transaction negotiation and deal execution remain with the Advisory team. However, this role is accountable for ensuring only commercially viable, well-positioned brands enter that stage.

Success in this role requires commercial maturity, structured execution, and the ability to build trust at the agency-owner and founder level.

Key Responsibilities

You will be responsible for:

Designing and executing a structured partnership acquisition strategy
Identifying and engaging high-quality DTC ecosystem partners (performance, CRO, email, Amazon, and related agencies)
Negotiating and formalizing referral and strategic partnership agreements
Building and managing a measurable partner pipeline within CRM
Educating partners on EcomSwap's Ideal Seller Profile and qualification criteria
Activating partners to consistently identify and refer exit-ready founders
Conducting structured introductory qualification calls where required
Assessing revenue profile, profitability, growth trajectory, and exit motivation
Ensuring clean, structured handover of viable opportunities to the Advisory team
Monitoring intro-to-mandate conversion metrics and optimizing performance
Representing EcomSwap professionally within the DTC agency ecosystem

Requirements

We are looking for candidates who demonstrate:

Candidates who have previously founded, owned, scaled, or operated an e-commerce brand will be strongly considered.
5+ years of experience in partnerships, commercial growth, structured business development, or founder-led commercial roles
Demonstrated ability to convert warm introductions into signed commercial agreements
Strong commercial negotiation and positioning capability
Confidence engaging agency founders, operators, and brand owners at senior level
Direct exposure to the DTC and e-commerce ecosystem is highly preferred, including:
Experience working within or alongside CRO agencies
Creative or performance marketing agencies
Klaviyo / email marketing agencies
Paid media buying agencies
Amazon-focused agencies or operators
Other service providers supporting 78 figure DTC brands
Solid understanding of DTC unit economics, revenue channels, margin structures, and growth levers
Ability to interpret financial snapshots and assess commercial readiness
Structured, KPI-driven execution style
CRM proficiency (HubSpot preferred)
On-site availability in the UAE (mandatory)
Long-term interest in building within the M&A and acquisitions environment

We value commercial discipline, strategic thinking, and individuals who can build durable acquisition engines - not just pipelines.

What We Offer

Competitive base salary with performance-linked upside

Direct impact on deal flow and revenue growth

Ownership of a growth-critical function within a scaling platform

Exposure to high-performing DTC brands and agency ecosystems

Clear strategic influence within leadership discussions

A structured operating environment with strong execution standards
