The General Manager is the senior executive who leads BugMD, owning the brand P&L and steering strategy and execution across every channel we sell in: DTC, Marketplaces, and Retail.

Responsibilities

• Own the BugMD P&L end to end, with accountability for revenue, margin, EBITDA, cash flow, and growth.
• Build and execute the strategic plan to scale the brand north of $200M while protecting margin integrity, and lead annual and quarterly planning across Growth, Retail Sales, Operations, Marketplace, and Finance.

Partner with the Retail Sales Lead to grow retail velocity and execute major customer timelines, and with the Head of Growth on CAC and MER strategy, retention, the influencer ecosystem, and channel diversification.

• Foster a results driven, low ego, high ownership culture.
• Serve as the primary executive interface for investors, the Board, and future strategic buyers, supporting growth equity partners with transparent reporting, capital planning, and strategic initiatives.

• A track record of scaling a consumer brand past $100M, ideally beyond $200M, or through an exit event.

• Experience leading or supporting fundraising, board meetings, and investor relationships, with the credibility to earn the trust of investors, advisers, and strategic partners.

• Highly commercial and data driven, who elevates teams, holds high standards, and leads with low entitlement and high accountability.
• Working knowledge of the advertising, product safety, and retail compliance expectations relevant to a consumer products business.
