Business Development Manager - B2B Alliances
Posted Updated
Description
Responsibilities:
- Open doors: Build a target list, reach decision-makers (heads of claims, partnerships, channel, service and operations) and get first meetings.
- Pitch and close: Run discovery calls, present tailored proposals, and negotiate terms with the support of our leadership team.
- Onboard and grow: Hand over to our operations team, stay the relationship owner and grow volumes within each account.
- Report: Keep a clean pipeline in our CRM and share a weekly forecast with leadership.
- Watch the market: Track competitors and new partnership opportunities and tell us what to build next or what to do better. You, in a sense, are our eyes and ears.
What success looks like:
- First 30 days: Create an active target list of 50+ accounts agreed, first meetings booked; 30-40% target client meetings held.
- First 90 days: An active pipeline of qualified opportunities and deals closed in our favour with visible numbers and projections. New Alliances start going live, and billing starts.

- A record of closing alliances or channel deals, not just retail or counter sales.
- Confidence with senior decision-makers, and strong negotiation, communication and presentation skills.
