About the Role

You’ll take full ownership of converting a target partner list, working closely with Category Managers to prioritise opportunities, and partnering with our Onboarding and Category teams to set new relationships up for long-term success. This is a hybrid role with 2 days per week in our Central London office, with partner travel required at times.

* Create and present compelling commercial proposals that reflect our brand and value proposition
* Negotiate and close mutually beneficial commercial agreements with speed and precision
* Partner with the Onboarding Manager and Category team to ensure a smooth handover post-signature

* Build and maintain strong industry relationships, representing our brands at events and networking opportunities
* Gather market insight to inform acquisition strategy and stay ahead of industry trends
About you
* Proven experience in B2B sales, business development, or partnerships (ideally within a marketplace, e-commerce, or experience-led business)
* Strong sense of ownership with a tenacious, proactive, results-driven approach
* Excellent commercial judgement, with the ability to spot value and communicate it clearly for both parties
* Confident communicator with strong pitching, influencing, and closing skills
* Highly organised, able to prioritise effectively and manage multiple opportunities at once
* Comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
* Existing connections in relevant industries (a plus)
* Confident using CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce) to manage pipeline activity and performance tracking
What’s in it for you?
* Competitive Pay & Bonuses: Plus generous pension plans, staff discounts, and share schemes.
* Wellbeing First: Private healthcare (UK), dental, life insurance, mental health support, and dog-friendly offices.
* Flexible Working & Time Off: Generous holidays, hybrid working (2 days a week in the office), and opportunities for international working.
