Director of Strategic Partnerships & Growth

Extension Health | Full-time

Location: Manhattan, New York. The role requires you to be in-office at least 3 days a week. 

Why Extension Health

Longevity is rapidly moving into the mainstream. Executives, founders, athletes, and high performers are actively seeking credible, science-backed ways to extend health span — not just lifespan.

Extension Health is leading this shift. We combine clinical rigor, data-driven personalization, and concierge-level care to deliver measurable outcomes. As interest in longevity accelerates, we are scaling through strategic partnerships that expand access, distribution, and trust - while maintaining the highest standards of medical and brand integrity.

This is a rare opportunity to help shape how a category-defining longevity brand grows at a pivotal moment. The Extension Health office location is currently in the West Village in New York, with a number of other locations planned to open in the next 18 months. 

The Director of Strategic Partnerships & Growth will build and own Extension Health’s partnership-driven growth engine.

This is a senior, highly strategic role focused on partnerships that expand reach, access, and long-term growth. While brand partnerships and influencer collaborations are an important part of the role, this position is fundamentally a strategic partnerships and business development role, not a traditional marketing position.

Partnerships may include:

• Brand partnerships with aligned premium, wellness, lifestyle, and performance brands to drive awareness, credibility, and integrated activations
• Embedded or access-based partnerships (e.g., premium card programs, private memberships)
• Clinical and practitioner relationships that expand awareness and care pathways
• Corporate and executive partnerships (e.g., leadership wellness, employee access programs)
• Select creator, key opinion leader, and cultural partnerships that support both growth and trust

• Define and lead Extension Health’s strategic partnerships roadmap aligned to long-term growth objectives.
• Identify, evaluate, and secure high-impact partnerships across brand, corporate, clinical, and premium ecosystems.
• Structure partnership models that are compliant, scalable, and aligned with business, brand, and medical standards.
• Develop and manage brand partnerships, including co-marketing initiatives, integrated campaigns, content collaborations, and experiential activations.
• Own partner performance through clear success metrics tied to engagement, adoption, and long-term growth.
• Build and steward a trusted ecosystem of brand partners, practitioners, KOLs, executives, and creators.
• Collaborate closely with Medical, Growth, Product, Creative, and Operations teams to ensure partnerships are executed with excellence and integrity.

• 8–12 years of experience in strategic partnerships, business development, brand partnerships, or growth roles.
• Proven ability to build partnerships that drive meaningful business and brand impact.
• Strong commercial instincts with experience structuring complex, long-term partnerships.
• Comfortable operating in regulated or compliance-sensitive environments.
• Excited to help shape a category-defining brand during a moment of major market momentum.

Longevity is one of the most important health movements of the next decade — and trust will determine who leads it.

In this role, you’ll build partnerships that:

• Expand access to personalized longevity care
• Strengthen brand credibility through aligned collaborations
• Create durable, long-term growth at the moment the market is paying attention

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary range: $140K–$180K (commensurate with experience)
