Director of Strategic Partnerships

Job Description

About the Company

Lemonaid Health is a leading telehealth and mail-order pharmacy platform providing convenient, affordable care and prescription fulfillment for patients nationwide. From online consultation to doorstep delivery, Lemonaid’s mission is to make healthcare refreshingly simple. As we continue expanding our clinical services, operational capabilities, and national footprint, strategic partnerships play a critical role in shaping our growth and impact.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Director of Strategic Partnerships to build, scale, and manage the relationships that drive growth across all of Lemonaid — including pharmacy, medical operations, clinical programs, patient acquisition, and brand expansion. This role will own the full lifecycle of external partnerships and sponsorships that enhance our service offerings, streamline operations, and expand our reach.

You’ll work cross-functionally with pharmacy and clinical teams, medical operations, product, marketing, and growth to identify opportunities, negotiate agreements, and turn partnership concepts into operationalized, scalable programs. We’re looking for someone who loves building something from scratch, thrives in ambiguous environments, and brings a scrappy, solutions-first mindset. This is a senior role — ideal for someone ready to lead without needing a large team behind them.

• Identify, evaluate, and secure new partnership opportunities that advance Lemonaid’s growth, capabilities, revenue, and patient access
• Oversee all sponsorship relationships, from prospecting and negotiation through execution and ongoing management
• Develop a robust pipeline of partnership opportunities through market scanning, outreach, and ecosystem mapping
• Own end-to-end partnership lifecycle : initial conversations, due diligence, business case development, contract negotiation, onboarding, integration, and performance optimization
• Collaborate closely with internal teams to operationalize partnerships — ensuring smooth execution across pharmacy operations, medical workflow, clinical services, and patient support
• Partner with Marketing and Growth teams to design and execute co-branded initiatives, joint sponsorships, and patient acquisition collaborations
• Manage key partner relationships day-to-day, ensuring alignment, communication, and successful delivery against shared goals
• Develop dashboards, KPIs, and reporting frameworks to evaluate partnership performance and inform decision-making
• Unblock cross-functional teams and remove friction to ensure partnerships translate into real, measurable business results
• Represent Lemonaid at industry events, conferences, and partner meetings
• Provide clear insights and recommendations to senior leadership on partnership strategy, risks, opportunities, and ecosystem trends
