What are the responsibilities and job description for the Strategic Partnerships Manager position at Fabl Design?
Location: Nashville, TN (Middle Tennessee)
Job Type: Full-Time (Hybrid)
Compensation: Modest base salary strong, compounding growth-based bonuses
Fabl Design is a fast-growing residential design company specializing in home additions, remodels, and outdoor living spaces. We partner with builders and contractors to deliver seamless project experiences.
As we expand throughout Middle Tennessee and nearby states, we’re building a strong network of builder partners who trust us with their clients, and we’re looking for a relationship-driven individual to help grow that network.
We’re hiring a Strategic Partnerships Manager who thrives on building meaningful relationships and helping partners succeed. This role is ideal for someone who wants to join a growing company early, with compensation that increases significantly as the partner network expands.
This is not a traditional sales role with a high base salary.
This is a long-term growth opportunity for someone who values:
- Entrepreneurial involvement
- Early-stage impact
- Relationship building
- Long-term financial upside
- Working directly with the founder
- Regional expansion and field-based relationship building
- A role where travel is necessary and part of the fun
If you’re seeking a large guaranteed salary from day one, this role won’t be a good fit.
If you're energized by creating something meaningful and earning more as you build real value, this is perfect for you.
- Identify and reach out to qualified builders
- Travel regularly across Middle Tennessee and nearby states to meet partners
- Attend networking events, home shows, and tradeshows
- Start conversations, build rapport, and open partnership opportunities
- Introduce and explain our builder-focused design services
- Maintain and deepen relationships with active builder partners
- Conduct in-person visits, lunches, and check-ins when needed
- Ensure partners feel supported and engaged
- Track partner activity and new opportunities
- Work closely with the founder to shape our partnership strategy
- Help develop repeatable systems as our network grows
- Identify opportunities to support partners and help them win more bids
- Represent Fabl Design in the field and within the building community
- Someone who enjoys meeting people and building strong relationships
- Comfortable with regular regional travel
- A proactive, self-driven communicator
- Entrepreneurial mindset — you want to grow with a company, not just collect a salary
- Experience in construction, or related fields is a plus (not required)
- Comfortable adapting, learning, and helping build a new department from scratch
This role is intentionally structured for long-term upside:
- Modest base pay, ideal for someone who values opportunity and long-term growth over immediate high salary
- Bonuses for each partnership established and new projects
- Compounding bonuses tied to the ongoing revenue those partners generate
- Significant long-term earning potential as partnerships scale
You grow your income as you grow the company.
- Direct collaboration with the founder
- Influence the direction of Fabl’s multi-state builder ecosystem
- Huge room for upward mobility as we expand regionally
- Fieldwork travel keeps the role dynamic and engaging
- Earn meaningful rewards tied to your impact
- Be part of a nimble, innovative, early-stage team
