ABOUT THE ROLE

This role owns the partnerships that bring new clients to Wealthsimple. Every motion you own ladders up to one goal, customer acquisition, across both digital and real-world channels: partner-driven acquisition campaigns, referral partnerships that feed our business banking line, and brand and experiential sponsorships that let us acquire customers in person. The job is to turn partners and campaigns into net-new clients and deposits, and to convert our brand presence into people walking in the door, wherever they already are. You'll source, negotiate, and activate these partnerships end to end, and you'll build a lot of it from scratch. This is a builder's seat for a growth-minded commercial operator who thinks about acquisition wherever it happens, online or IRL.

IN THIS ROLE YOU'LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO:

• Drive acquisition campaigns with partners, including monthly millionaire: secure partner funding and co-marketing, and source smaller campaign partners to power specific moments.
• Own referral partnerships for the business banking line end to end: source, sign, and drive the channel partners that send us new business clients and deposits.
• Lead commercial negotiations from first outreach to signed terms, landing terms that work for both our clients and the business.
• Own the acquisition targets: net-new funded clients and deposits from referral partners, campaign performance, and sponsorship reach and ROI.
• Partner cross-functionally with Growth, Brand, PMM, and Business Banking Product to activate every partnership well and measure its impact.

SKILLS YOU'LL BRING:

• 7-10 years of relevant experience in partnerships, business development, or growth roles in banking or customer-focused industries.
• Negotiation and commercial ownership. A master negotiator with a track record of driving commercial and acquisition outcomes and turning partnerships into measurable growth.
• A growth and acquisition orientation. You've turned partnerships or campaigns into measurable client acquisition, online and in person, and you think in funnels, not just relationships.
• Channel or referral partnership experience. You've built or run a referral or channel pipeline that produced real, attributable results.
• Strong analytical and commercial skills, with real comfort in CAC, LTV, and attribution.
• A strong network in Canada (and ideally the US) across relevant commercial, tech, and community ecosystems.
• A 0-to-1 operator with high urgency, strong ownership, and a bias for action.

NICE TO HAVE:

• Brand experiential marketing experience, especially activations built to drive real-world customer acquisition, including agency and rights-holder relationships.
• Business banking or SMB acquisition experience.
• Product partnerships experience as it pertains to integrated referrals.
• A results-oriented mindset with a focus on impact and outcomes.
