<div class="content-intro"><p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">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&amp;A.</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Since inception, we have acquired 30+ brands across Pet Care, Personal Care, Home Care, Supplements, Baby &amp; Juvenile, Garden &amp; Outdoor, Sports &amp; Fitness, and Home &amp; Lifestyle — completing 20+ acquisitions and delivering 16 consecutive quarters of like-for-like organic growth post-integration.</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">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.</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">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.</p></div><p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">About the role(*please note it is a part-time job):</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p>
