The Opportunity
As the first Channel Partnerships hire, you will build the partner program from scratch and own one of the company's highest-leverage growth initiatives. You will report directly to company leadership, with significant ownership and scope that expands as the channel grows.

- Identify, recruit, and activate partners across accounting firms, benefits brokerages, fractional HR leaders, and executive advisors
- Build executive-level relationships with partner leadership
- Create the playbooks, incentives, and processes that make partner-sourced revenue repeatable
- Partner with sales and leadership to convert partner referrals into customers
- Track partner performance and revenue contribution, and scale what works
Requirements
- 5+ years in partnerships, business development, sales, or another GTM role
- 3+ years building or managing strategic partnerships
- A partner or channel program you personally created or meaningfully scaled, with revenue attached
- Strong executive relationship-building skills and high agency
- Excitement about working in person in New York five days per week
- Bonus: startup experience, B2B SaaS sales-led background, or partnerships with accounting or fractional HR firms
