About this role

YouLend is seeking a Senior Partnerships Manager to own commercial relationships with strategic partners across payments, e-commerce, food delivery, and technology. You'll manage full P&L responsibility for key US partnerships, set and deliver against ambitious growth targets, and work closely with senior external stakeholders while coordinating internally across Product, Sales, Risk, and Operations. The role demands someone who can balance strategic planning with tactical execution—from joint business planning and performance analysis to identifying new product opportunities and negotiating renewals and upsells.

This position suits someone with at least five years in a partner-facing sales role (such as Key Account Manager or Relationship Manager) who has proven ability to drive measurable revenue growth and manage complex, high-value B2B partnerships. You should be comfortable working autonomously in a fast-paced environment, using data to inform strategy, and building effective relationships across all organizational levels. The ideal candidate can multitask effectively, assess partnerships with a strategic lens, and operate with minimal oversight.

YouLend is a high-growth fintech (>100% growth in 2022–2023) backed by private equity and part of Banking Circle Group. The company offers a competitive benefits package including 80% health coverage, 401(k) matching up to 5%, 20 days PTO plus US holidays, and paid parking. The role is full-time, in-office in Atlanta, with a fixed salary of $130,000 and clear upside through bonus and equity appreciation as the business scales.
