DO YOUR LIFE’S BEST WORK WITH YOCTO
"I’ve grown more in 3 months here than I did in two years at my last job."
YOCTO is building one of the highest-leverage retention marketing teams in the ecommerce ecosystem. We run lifecycle marketing (email, SMS, direct mail) for fast-growing health, wellness, beauty, and subscription brands, and we work closely with leading tech platforms and agencies across the DTC space.
We’re hiring a Partnership Manager to generate pipeline by owning YOCTO’s tech and agency partner ecosystem - driving referrals, co-marketing initiatives, and net-new opportunities through a focused, relationship-led growth motion.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a revenue-driving partnerships role, not a brand or community role. Your core responsibility is simple and measurable: generate qualified pipeline through tech and agency partners. You’ll do this by identifying the right partners, building trust-based relationships, and turning those relationships into consistent referrals, co-marketing initiatives, and closed revenue.
You’ll work directly with the CEO and operate with high autonomy. This role rewards leverage, follow-through, and commercial judgment - not volume activity.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Partner-sourced pipeline & referrals:
- Generate net-new and cross-sell pipeline through tech and agency partners
- Own partner relationships end-to-end: outreach → relationship → referral → closed-won
- Proactively nurture existing partners to increase referral volume and quality
- Clearly position YOCTO’s value so partners know when and who to refer
Partner acquisition & ecosystem growth:
- Identify and sign new tech and agency partners with strong ICP overlap
- Build a balanced partner network that compounds over time
- Qualify partners based on real revenue potential, not logos
- Aim to add multiple high-quality partners per quarter
Co-marketing & joint initiatives:
- Execute high-impact co-marketing plays with partners: Webinars, Case studies, Email swaps, Content collaborations, Events
- Turn relationships into repeatable distribution and demand generation
- Focus on outcomes: leads, meetings, pipeline - not vanity metrics
Ecosystem presence & relationship building:
- Represent YOCTO at relevant ecosystem events, meetups, and partner activations
- Build credibility and visibility within the DTC, SaaS, and agency ecosystem
- Strengthen existing relationships and open doors to new ones
Tracking ownership:
- Keep CRM and ClickUp fully up to date
- Track partner activity, referrals, pipeline, and outcomes weekly
- Maintain a clear view of what’s working, what isn’t, and why
- Own and improve partner processes and workflows over time
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- Proven experience generating pipeline through partnerships, ecosystems, or alliances
- Strong commercial instincts and comfort with revenue ownership
- Ability to build trust quickly and follow through consistently
- Clear, professional communication - written and verbal
- Comfort working independently with minimal oversight
- Experience in SaaS, agency, ecommerce, or adjacent ecosystems
NICE TO HAVE
- Existing relationships in the DTC, SaaS, or agency ecosystem
- Experience running co-marketing or referral programs
- Familiarity with CRM systems and pipeline reporting
- Experience working closely with founders or executives
COMPENSATION & PERKS
This is a remote contractor role with a competitive base and performance upside. We offer:
- 22 days paid annual leave (21 + 1 birthday day), with clear expectations for being fully offline during time off
- 7 paid sick days, plus additional paid leave for special circumstances
- Performance-based bonuses tied directly to pipeline and revenue impact
- Annual budget for events, travel, tools, and professional growth
- Remote-first work environment (Europe preferred), flexible working arrangements, and full ownership over your domain
Why YOCTO
YOCTO rewards leverage, ownership, and results. If you want to build a partner engine that directly fuels revenue - and you’re comfortable being measured by outcomes, not activity - you’ll thrive here.
