Founding Partnerships Sales Executive | Sydney (On-site) | ~$300K OTE | High-Growth Tech Platform

We’re partnering with a high-growth Australian tech company to hire a Founding Partnerships Sales Executive — a critical commercial hire responsible for building and scaling new outbound partnerships.

This is a true 0→1 role . No playbook. No inbound reliance. Just a proven product, a massive market, and the opportunity to build something from scratch.

This company powers the infrastructure behind millions of consumer comparison and switching transactions across:

- Energy
- Broadband
- Insurance

They enable major brands (banks, loyalty programs, marketplaces) to monetise their existing customer base through embedded comparison solutions.

- ~250+ partners already live

The Role: You’ll be responsible for winning and activating new partnerships with organisations that have large customer bases.

Think:

- Loyalty / rewards programs
- Marketplaces & membership platforms

This is not a typical SaaS sale — you’re selling new revenue streams , not software.

What You’ll Be Doing

- Build a pipeline from scratch (~80% outbound)
- Sell a white-label / embedded partnership solution
- Engage senior stakeholders:
- CEO / Founder
- Head of Partnerships
- Product / Commercial leaders

- Create tailored commercial propositions (no templated outreach)




- Own partners through first 12 months of activation
- Work cross-functionally to drive real revenue outcomes

Must Have

- 3–7 years in B2B sales / partnerships / platform sales
- Proven mid‑market / enterprise closing experience
- Robust outbound + pipeline generation capability
- Experience in startup / scale‑up environments (0→1 or 1→10)
- Ability to sell commercial outcomes and ROI
- High commercial acumen (tailoring deals per partner)
- Background in:
- Fintech / payments (Square, Zip, Stripe, etc.)
- Loyalty / rewards (Qantas, Amex, Flybuys)

- Experience selling:

- Partnerships / ecosystems
- White‑label / embedded platforms

- Reliant on brand‑led selling or inbound pipeline
- Template‑driven / generic outreach approach
- Purely transactional or B2C sales backgrounds
- Account managers without true hunting experience

Why This Role

- True founding commercial hire
- Proven product with strong traction
- Massive greenfield opportunity
- Direct exposure to leadership
- Clear path to build and lead a team
- Business targeting IPO in coming years
- ~$150K base
- ~$300K+ OTE based on gross margin

If you enjoy building from scratch, selling commercially, and working with senior stakeholders , this is one of the most exciting partnership roles in the market right now.
