About the role

Lifetimely helps e-commerce brands understand what actually drives profitable growth, connecting customer, product, retention and profitability data in one place, with AI agents that help teams turn insight into action.

We’re looking for a Partnerships Manager to own and scale two of our most important growth channels: agency partnerships and technology partnerships.

This is a commercial, hands-on role. You’ll build relationships with leading retention, CRM, and ecommerce agencies, while developing partnerships across the technology ecosystem, including platforms like Klaviyo, Kno, Okendo, Loop, Stay, Fairing and other tools our customers use every day. Your job isn’t simply to sign partners. It’s to turn partnerships into active distribution channels that generate qualified pipeline, customer activations and revenue.

What you'll own

Agency partnerships

Build and grow a network of high-value ecommerce agencies, particularly those working with established CPG, subscription and DTC brands.

You’ll:

• Identify and recruit high-fit retention, CRM, lifecycle, performance and full-service ecommerce agencies
• Build relationships with agency founders, strategists and client teams, remote and IRL
• Run demos, training and enablement sessions that make Lifetimely easy for agencies to adopt
• Help agencies incorporate Lifetimely into their core technology stack and client workflows
• Develop referral, rollout and commercial partnership opportunities
• Work with partners on account mapping to identify shared and prospective customers
• Drive activation across agency client portfolios, not just individual referrals
• Maintain a clear pipeline from partner → opportunity → activation → paying customer
• Develop relationships with agency communities, events and networks that can extend our reach

Technology partnerships

Build meaningful partnerships with the platforms sitting alongside Lifetimely in the modern ecommerce and retention stack.

You’ll:

• Develop relationships with complementary ecommerce technology companies
• Identify integration and ecosystem opportunities based on customer overlap and strategic fit
• Own partner account mapping and joint customer opportunities
• Coordinate co-marketing campaigns, webinars, content, case studies and launches, supported by the Marketing team
• Develop joint positioning and “better together” stories with Product Marketing
• Run partner enablement and sales-team training
• Create opportunities for reciprocal referrals and 1:1 customer introductions
• Work closely with product and marketing on new integrations and partner launches
• Build relationships across partner, ecosystem, marketing and commercial teams

What success looks like

This role has a clear commercial mandate.

You’ll be measured on:

• Partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline
• New ARR and customers generated through partnerships
• Number of productive agency and technology partners
• Partner activation and referral rates
• Expansion across agency client portfolios
• Joint campaigns and customer introductions
• Pipeline velocity and conversion
• Contribution of partnerships to Lifetimely's overall growth targets

We care much more about productive partners than logos on a partner page.

Who we're looking for

You’ll probably have 3–6+ years of experience across partnerships, business development, ecosystem, SaaS or ecommerce.

Ideally, you:

• Understand the Shopify and ecommerce ecosystem
• Have experience working with agencies, SaaS companies or technology partners
• Understand how CRM, retention and lifecycle marketing teams operate
• Are comfortable discussing tools like Klaviyo, subscription platforms, reviews, attribution and ecommerce analytics
• Can confidently run a commercial conversation with an agency founder or technology partner
• Know how to move from relationship-building to a concrete commercial opportunity
• Are highly organised and comfortable managing multiple partner pipelines simultaneously
• Can operate independently in a fast-moving remote company
• Are comfortable working across time zones with partners in North America, the UK, Europe and Australia

Experience in Shopify SaaS, retention marketing, CRM, subscription ecommerce or the broader DTC/CPG ecosystem would be a major advantage.

The kind of person who will thrive here

• You’re commercially minded but relationship-led.
• You enjoy opening doors, but you're equally interested in what happens after the partnership is signed.
• You can see the difference between a partner who sounds exciting and one who can actually generate customers.
• And you're comfortable getting into the work, prospecting, running calls, training agency teams, building a campaign with a technology partner, mapping accounts and following opportunities all the way through to revenue.

Why this role matters

Partnerships are becoming a major distribution channel for Lifetimely.

Our customers already work with retention agencies and technology platforms every day. The opportunity is to make Lifetimely part of that ecosystem, recommended by the people and platforms our ICP already trusts.

This role will have the opportunity to build that channel and directly influence how Lifetimely reaches the next generation of leading ecommerce brands.
