• Collaborate with Product and Operations to ensure seamless partner integration and smooth customer journeys.
• Work closely with Sales and Marketing to activate partners and turn partnerships into a scalable demand channel.

• Act as the primary relationship owner for key partners, building trust and long-term collaboration.
• Continuously refine the partner program based on performance data, feedback, and market learnings.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, or strategic sales, ideally in a high-growth tech, fintech, or platform environment.
• Proven track record of building and scaling partnerships that drive tangible business impact.
• Strong commercial and strategic mindset - able to structure deals and evaluate ROI.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, both internally and externally.
• Ability to work cross-functionally and translate partner needs into internal action.
• Hands-on, ownership-driven mentality - comfortable operating with ambiguity and building from scratch.
• Fluent in German and English 

About You:

• You bring curiosity, persistence, and a strong sense of ownership.
