About The Role
Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement benefits. More than half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future. Too often, it’s because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium‑sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings.
Our Partnership Program is a key initiative for the company. The Partner Account Manager’s primary duty is to engage, build and develop Human Interest’s key accounts and growth opportunities. We’re looking for a forward‑thinking, meticulously organized, and self‑motivated sales professional who can thrive in a fast‑paced environment.
