About Boatsy

At Boatsy, we’re not here to rent boats—we’re here to reinvent how people experience the sea.

We’ve built the world’s first experience-led sailing marketplace, designed not for seasoned sailors but for a new generation of travelers seeking joy, connection, and discovery on the water. Our platform hosts over 14,000 boats across 100 of the world’s most spectacular routes, from the Cyclades to the Caribbean—each itinerary thoughtfully crafted with local experts.

Instead of focusing on technical specs or bareboat listings, we deliver curated, crewed journeys—complete with verified captain profiles, transparent pricing, and our free concierge service that helps guests choose the right route, boat, and onboard experience.

Whether it’s a family escape, a romantic retreat, or a members-only flotilla, we make it effortless to enjoy a seamless, luxury-level holiday at sea.

We’re based in the UK, operating globally, and tapping into a $65B luxury holiday market that’s ripe for disruption. As a fast-growing, founder-led company, Boatsy offers the chance to help shape a product, brand, and culture with real impact.

We’re now looking for a London-based Partnerships Manager to drive the expansion of our brand collaborations and membership club partnerships, bringing Boatsy to premium audiences through trusted lifestyle and travel channels.

About the Role

This role is all about building high-impact collaborations that expand Boatsy’s reach, credibility, and customer base. You will focus on two key partnership areas:

Collaborate with leading private members’ clubs, such as Soho House, The Ned, Core Club, or 67 Pall Mall to provide offers to their members and premium concierge line for their sailing needs as well as in club sailing events.

• Designing white-labeled landing pages on the Boatsy platform offering perks for club members.
• Coordinating joint marketing campaigns with club teams to promote these offerings while ensuring a seamless booking and concierge experience.
• Offering wallet credit incentives or special perks for members who book through the club’s dedicated page.
• Supporting or leading in-person events at club venues (e.g., itinerary talks, “sailing night” gatherings), especially if you enjoy presenting or have sailing knowledge.
• Collaborating with clubs on seasonal activations, co-hosted group sails, or member giveaways.

2. Brand & Lifestyle Collaborations

Boatsy already works with premium brands like British Airways and Mastercard, and we’re growing fast in this space. You’ll manage and expand partnerships with luxury brands in sectors like travel, fashion, spirits, wellness, and real estate. Activities include:

• Launching joint marketing campaigns (e.g., travel bundles, giveaways, limited-time discounts).
• Coordinating event sponsorships, influencer activations, or bespoke experiences co-hosted with partners.
• Developing co-branded promotions that tie into Boatsy’s most exclusive routes and offerings.

• Coordinate with Boatsy’s marketing team to develop co-branded content, campaigns, and online touchpoints.
• Attend networking events, member club gatherings, and brand activations across London to represent Boatsy.

?Ideal Candidate

• A strong network within UK-based membership clubs or premium brand ecosystems is a plus.
• Excellent communicator and relationship-builder with confidence in pitching and presenting.
• Strategic, self-motivated, and execution-driven.
• Based in London, with the flexibility to attend in-person meetings and host or support events.

What We Offer

• Flexible working structure—full-time or part-time—designed around the right candidate.
• Direct collaboration with the founding team and decision-makers.
