  • Collaborate closely with Sales, Marketing, and Product to integrate partnerships into customer acquisition and retention strategies.
  • Build partnerships that drive measurable pipeline and top-line growth, while also creating operational efficiencies.
  • Stay ahead of logistics trends, emerging technologies, and competitive landscapes to position Portless as a category leader.
  • Over time, build and mentor a partnerships team to scale with Portless's growth trajectory.
