Affiliate Publisher Partnerships Coordinator
Work setup: Full-time, remote
Company Overview
Pearl West is building the future of consumer brands — differently.
We operate like a mini-Unilever: a lean, performance-driven team that builds and scales brands like startups, backed by private-equity-level capital and discipline.
We own and operate six consumer brands generating $40M+ in annual revenue, with additional acquisitions ahead. Each brand follows a focused 3-year scale-and-exit playbook, powered by centralized growth, creative, media, product, and operations teams.
This is operator-led brand building — not “scale and pray.” Decisions are data-backed. Execution is fast. Results directly impact the P&L.
If you want hands-on ownership and exposure to how modern e-commerce brands are built and exited, Pearl West is where you grow.
Role Overview
The Affiliate Publisher Partnerships Coordinator is an execution-focused role responsible for sourcing, coordinating, and managing publisher-led affiliate partnerships, with a strong emphasis on article-based placements, media publishers, and content sites that drive profitable Amazon revenue.

Experience working with influencers or creators is a plus; however, this role is primarily focused on the publishing and content affiliate ecosystem. Influencer initiatives may be involved on an as-needed basis but are not the main responsibility of the role.
