• Work closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, PR, Legal and the Australian leadership team to deliver growth.
• Creatively structure or brainstorm product solutions with both external partners and internal stakeholders.
• Be the ‘go-to’ person for partners’ day-to-day needs, define the long-term vision for the partnership and continuously track and enhance its success.
• Develop scalable processes to manage complex and nuanced partnerships and integrations.

Your Profile:

• Demonstrated success in launching and scaling partnerships, products and programs focused on growing user engagement or revenue.
• Strong communication, presentation skills, and executive presence.
• Track record of delivering mutually successful business outcomes centered around partnerships.
• A creative thinker who’s comfortable with triaging and managing highly complex, nuanced and new functional areas.
