Description
Founded in 2020, unybrands is the next-generation brand accelerator platform built to acquire, integrate, and scale digital-first consumer brands. Headquartered in Miami, with offices in New York, London, Berlin, and Shenzhen, our 240+ team brings deep expertise across e-commerce, brand management, consumer retail, operational scaling, and M&A.
Since inception, we have acquired 30+ brands across Pet Care, Personal Care, Home Care, Supplements, Baby & Juvenile, Garden & Outdoor, Sports & Fitness, and Home & Lifestyle — completing 20+ acquisitions and delivering 16 consecutive quarters of like-for-like organic growth post-integration.
Our competitive advantage lies in a fully integrated operating system purpose-built to transform digital brands into omni-channel category leaders. Powered by a proprietary technology stack built on NetSuite ERP with 200+ data integrations, our platform enables brands to thrive across marketplaces, direct-to-consumer channels, and brick-and-mortar retail.
We focus on acquiring digital-first brands within carefully selected verticals, then applying tailored value creation playbooks that drive growth through innovation, expansion, and automation. We believe the next generation of consumer brands will be built differently — and we're building the AI-enabled retail tech platform to help them consolidate and win.

The role is deliberately broad and priorities shift with the company's needs. Core areas of ownership include:
Mergers & Acquisitions
• Support the full M&A transaction lifecycle, including screening inbound opportunities, researching markets and targets, and building underwriting, valuation, and returns analyses
• Drive diligence and transaction execution by analyzing data room materials, identifying discrepancies and risks, coordinating closing workstreams, and supporting post-close integration

• Translate model outputs and other analyses into clear conclusions and recommendations for senior leadership
Board, Investor & Fundraising Materials

Strategic Initiatives & Commercial Projects
• Help structure ambiguous, cross-functional business problems into workplans, decision materials, and implementation support

• Strong written communication and the ability to summarize complex issues clearly for executive audiences
• High attention to detail; comfort working with ambiguous, imperfect, or unfamiliar data sets; and a proactive, intellectually curious, low-ego approach
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment and flexing working hours during transactions or other time-sensitive initiatives
• Familiarity with e-commerce, consumer products, or the Amazon marketplace is helpful but not required
This Role Is for Someone Who Wants to:
• Take on significant breadth, ownership, and operating exposure
• Work closely with C-suite leaders, earn meaningful responsibility early, and develop leadership capabilities over time
• Build a versatile corporate development and operating skill set inside a next-generation consumer brand accelerator
