About IvyBears®
IvyBears® is Europe's leading vitamin gummy brand, available in 60+ countries, trusted by millions of consumers and endorsed by global talent. We combine health, lifestyle and innovation – including AI‑driven growth and product strategies – to build a modern global wellness brand.
We are now looking for a highly connected deal‑maker to drive strategic brand transactions and long‑term territorial partnerships across GCC and Asia.
The Opportunity
Your mandate is to structure and close high‑value strategic agreements for IvyBears in GCC and Asia with a focus on:
- Monetising territorial brand rights and market access
- Structuring long‑term, asset‑based partnerships (territorial IP / brand rights, not company equity)
- Working with strategic buyers, distributors, consumer groups, family offices, and M&A investors who understand asset deals in consumer brands
This is a purely success‑based role designed for a senior professional who already has strong access to decision‑makers.
What You'll Do
- Originate & structure brand deals in GCC and Asia with strategic partners (distributors, investors, consumer groups, family offices, funds)
- Design and negotiate territorial brand and IP structures (country/region rights, long‑term agreements, buy‑out options, etc.)
- Manage the full deal cycle: from identification and approach, to term sheet, due diligence coordination and signing/closing
- Work directly with the founder on valuation, deal terms, and transaction strategy
- Build a qualified pipeline of asset‑based opportunities (territorial rights, brand/IP transactions) without involving equity in the operating company
- Coordinate with our legal and finance advisors to ensure clean, bankable structures for all parties
What We're Looking For
- Senior profile only – 8+ years in:
- M&A / Corporate Finance / Investment Banking (consumer/FMCG) or
- Strategic BD / Commercial Partnerships for international consumer brands
- Proven track record in:
- Asset deals, brand/IP or territorial rights transactions
- OR large‑scale distribution / licensing / franchise agreements across GCC or Asia
- Existing, active network with at least some of the following in GCC/Asia:
- Family offices, PE/VC funds, holding groups
- Major distributors, retail groups, consumer brand acquirers
- Strong ability to structure and close complex commercial agreements
- Fluent English; Arabic or another Asian language is a strong plus
- Highly entrepreneurial, self‑driven, comfortable working on a success‑only compensation model
Compensation
This position is 100% commission‑based:
- 20% commission on the net transaction value of any deal you originate and close,
- Payable upon cash receipt / closing,
- Uncapped – your earnings scale directly with the size and number of transactions you deliver.
This structure is intended for a high‑calibre rainmaker with an established network and the ability to move quickly on meaningful deals.
Why This Role Is Unique
- Work directly with the founder of a globally scaling wellness brand
- Operate at the intersection of brand, IP and strategic capital, not day‑to‑day sales
- Full flexibility: remote, results‑driven, no fixed hours
- Clear upside: each successful transaction has material, immediate financial impact for you
How to Apply
Please send a brief introduction outlining:
- Your relevant deal experience (M&A, brand/IP, territorial or distribution rights)
- Examples of closed transactions (type, region, approximate size, your role)
- A short overview of your network in GCC and/or Asia (types of counterparties you can access)
- Your earliest availability
