The Partnerships Manager will play a crucial role in expanding and nurturing Wonderist Agency's referral partner network. In this position, you will primarily focus on developing new partnership opportunities through strategic prospecting, speaking engagements, and relationship building that drive referral generation. This is a business development role where you'll spend most of your time expanding our partner network—whether through direct outreach, presenting at industry events, or building connections at conferences. As partnerships are established, you'll naturally nurture and maintain those relationships, but your core responsibility is expanding our reach through new partner acquisition. This Partnerships Manager will work in parallel with the Partnerships & Events Manager, replicating our proven partnership framework with a new portfolio of partners. You'll identify and pursue new partnership opportunities, manage partner touch-points and communication, support partner client escalations, and track partnership performance metrics. This role requires someone who is a natural relationship-builder, a confident go-getter, and thrives on creating authentic connections.
