  • Own end-to-end business development cycle for your channels—from pitching and negotiation to onboarding and activation

  • Act as a thought partner to leadership, delivering actionable insights on trends, whitespace opportunities, and competitive activity

What you’ll need

  • 5+ years minimum of experience in business development, strategic partnerships, or GTM roles, preferably at a high-growth tech company or InsurTech

  • BA Degree in Business Administration, Finance, or a related field

  • Demonstrated ability to close complex partnerships and manage stakeholders at all levels

  • Experience working across multiple verticals or with platform-based distribution models, a strong plus

  • Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills

  • Strong organizational instincts, attention to detail, and comfort working with contracts and cross-functional teams

  • A passion for building innovative partnerships that drive growth

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-autonomy, collaborative environment—across time zones and evolving priorities
