Who Are You

We are seeking a Senior Partner Manager to build and lead a partner network that compounds. You will own the relationships with our most valuable allies: venture capital firms, investment banks, and stock exchanges.

This role is equal parts market-facing brand ambassador and analytical operator. You will represent DealMaker in "high-signal" rooms—private dinners, conferences, and boardrooms—while simultaneously building the structured workflows that turn a handshake into a consistent stream of qualified issuer opportunities.

What You Will Do

Strategic Partner Development & Deal Creation

- Identify and secure partnerships with VC/Growth Equity firms, Investment Banks, and Market Infrastructure providers.

- Design partner "offers" with clear economic logic, defining how DealMaker and the partner co-create value.

- Drive the partnership lifecycle from initial outreach and concept to signed agreement and launch.

Brand Ambassadorship & Event Strategy

- Act as a high-energy representative at industry conferences and private salons.

- Host and coordinate intimate executive gatherings (roundtables, investor dinners) to build deep trust with senior decision-makers.

- Develop a reputation as a credible, commercially sharp expert in the capital markets ecosystem.

Program Management & Execution

- Create repeatable partner motions: referral workflows, co-marketing templates, and sales enablement materials.

- Build and manage joint business plans with partners, including quarterly pipeline reviews and performance tracking.

- Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, and Legal to ensure a seamless experience for both partners and issuers.

Executive Relationship Management

- Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leaders at partner firms, managing relationships with high EQ and discretion.

- Orchestrate internal executive participation (CEO/CRO) in key meetings to accelerate high-value alliances.

What You Need

Experience:

- Demonstrated 5 years in partnership development, BD, or capital markets coverage (VC, Private Equity, or Investment Banking).

- Proven track record of driving partner-sourced revenue and turning networking into measurable commercial outcomes.

- Experience in fintech, wealth-tech, or regulated financial environments is highly preferred.

Traits & Skills:

- The "Art": Naturally social with high presence; able to build trust quickly with executive stakeholders.

- The "Science": Structured operator who values CRM hygiene, pipeline forecasting, and data-driven optimization.

- Grit & Autonomy: A "zero-to-one" builder who thrives in ambiguity and prioritizes speed over perfection.

- Communication: Exceptional writing and narrative skills—can distill complex fintech value propositions into compelling pitches.

What Success Looks Like (Year 1)

- Portfolio Growth: 5–10 strategically meaningful partners signed and actively referring deals.

- Pipeline Impact: A measurable increase in qualified issuer opportunities attributed to the partner channel.

- Market Presence: A solidified "top-of-mind" status for DealMaker within key venture and capital market circles.

The base salary for this role starts at $125,000, with final compensation determined based on skills, qualifications, and experience. This position is eligible for participation in our Sales Plan, a commission-based variable compensation program structured with a 60/40 split (60% base / 40% variable), designed to reward strong performance and results.
