Product Innovation & Strategy Manager - Launch & Scale Breakthrough CPG Brands

Job Description

Job Description

Company Overview

Pearl West is redefining what it means to build consumer brands. Think of us as a lean, high-performance version of Unilever—without the bureaucracy. We own and operate six brands in beauty, health supplements, sports nutrition, skincare, and pet products, with a combined run rate of $40M+ USD and scaling aggressively. Our mission is simple : build brands that leave lasting impressions and exit them at their peak.

What makes us different? We’re not “scale and pray” private equity. We’re operator-led, performance-driven, and outcome-obsessed. Our centralized shared-services model (growth, creative, product, ops) fuels multiple brands with speed, clarity, and execution. If you want to step into momentum, lead with autonomy, and actually own outcomes, Pearl West is your arena.

Role Overview

As the Product Innovation & Strategy Manager, you’ll lead the entire lifecycle of product development—from ideation and R&D to launch and post-market performance. This is a full-time leadership role that requires a mix of strategic vision, operational execution, and cross-functional collaboration. You’ll work across categories, launching products that not only hit the market fast but also deliver measurable impact on growth, margin, and brand equity.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end product development – from concept validation, supplier sourcing, prototyping, compliance, to launch.
• Drive innovation pipeline – build and manage a roadmap of products aligned with consumer trends and market gaps.
• Partner with marketing & operations – ensure launches are integrated across supply chain, creative, and go-to-market campaigns.
• Optimize unit economics & margins – negotiate with suppliers, improve COGS, and build scalable systems.
• Ensure compliance & quality control – manage regulatory requirements across categories and markets.
• Own timelines & execution speed – keep projects on track, moving from ideation to launch without bottlenecks.
