Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with internal stakeholders to align on goals, ensure smooth onboarding, and deliver exceptional partner outcomes. Revenue & Retention: Be accountable for achieving Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) retention goals, with a strong focus on renewals and growth. Strategic Insights: Proactively synthesize partner feedback and emerging trends to inform product, GTM strategy, and operational improvements. What You’ll Bring Required Skills: 5–7 years of experience in partnerships, business development, account management, or a related role, ideally in healthtech, SaaS, or consumer wellness. Proven track record of building and managing high-value partnerships that drive revenue. Strong negotiation and contracting experience. Excellent relationship management and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence at all levels. Demonstrated success in meeting or exceeding ARR and retention goals.
