About Middesk

Middesk makes it easier for businesses to work together. Since 2018, we've been transforming business identity verification, replacing slow, manual processes with seamless access to complete, up-to-date data. Our platform helps companies across industries confidently verify business identities, onboard customers faster, and reduce risk at every stage of the customer lifecycle.

About The Role

We're looking for a Partner Manager to acquire and build the next wave of high-impact partnerships at Middesk. Your primary focus will be on sourcing, negotiating, and launching new partnerships—referral-based, reseller-style, and product-embedded—with leading platforms across fintech and B2B SaaS. These partnerships are a core part of our go-to-market strategy, shaping both revenue growth and customer experience.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for someone who loves hunting for new opportunities, thrives in ambiguity, and wants to help define the blueprint for partnerships at a fast-growing company. You'll join a small, foundational team and own the full lifecycle of new partnerships—from market mapping and outreach, to deal negotiation, to go-to-market execution.

We follow a hybrid work model, and for this role, there is an expectation of 2 days per week in our SF or NYC office. Candidates should be based within a commutable distance, as we believe in the value of in-person collaboration and building strong team connections while also supporting flexibility where possible.

What You'll Do

• Source and Close New Partners : Identify, prioritize, and pursue high-value partnership opportunities that expand Middesk's reach. Lead negotiations and structure win-win agreements.
• Build a Partner Pipeline : Create a systematic approach to outbound sourcing, pipeline management, and opportunity qualification to ensure a steady flow of net-new partnerships.
• Launch & Activate Partnerships : Drive successful onboarding and GTM execution for new partners, ensuring seamless integration and early success.
• Develop Market Intelligence : Stay ahead of trends in fintech, SaaS, and B2B integrations to identify whitespace opportunities and inform Middesk's broader partner strategy.
• Collaborate Internally : Work closely with Sales, Marketing, and Product teams to align on go-to-market plans, ensure partner success, and surface partner-driven insights into our roadmap.
• Shape the Playbook : Help define Middesk's approach to partnership acquisition—from outreach frameworks to deal structures to KPIs.
