Execution and Optimization: Lead the end-to-end execution of partnership agreements through impact.com, ensuring seamless integration and alignment with business objectives. Continuously monitor and evaluate partnership performance, identifying areas for improvement and optimization. Relationship Building: Cultivate strong relationships with key stakeholders, including potential partners, industry influencers, and internal teams. Collaborate cross-functionally to leverage resources and expertise in support of partnership initiatives. Results Measurement: Establish clear KPIs and metrics to track partnership performance and effectiveness. Regularly analyze data and provide insights to stakeholders, demonstrating the impact of strategic partnerships on business outcomes. Market Insight: Stay ahead of industry trends, competitive landscape, and market dynamics relevant to partnership opportunities. Leverage market insights to inform partnership strategies and identify emerging opportunities for growth. What you'll bring: 5+ years of business development and/or strategic partnership experience. Startup experience and an existing network within SMB is a major plus. High level of overall business acumen and understanding of a variety of partner business models. Strong analytical skills and experience with large data sets and ability to extract business insights from analysis.

Outstanding deck and presentation skills and ability to create succinct and structured presentations capable of engaging executive-level stakeholders. Excellent communication skills with the ability to distill complex issues. Ability to thrive in ambiguous environments with limited direction and working cross-functionally with excellent stakeholder management. Ability to travel and source partnerships as needed.
