- Partnership Development: You’ll establish relationships with key stakeholders (often founders and C-suite) across the startup/VC, ecommerce and financial services spaces, bringing a strategic lens as to which partnerships to pursue and why. You’ll develop and implement innovative engagement strategies to bring unique opportunities to community partners.
- Networking and Community Building: You’ll grow Airwallex’s awareness and affinity with like-minded community members by participating in, speaking at and hosting community events and initiatives to facilitate meaningful discussion and networking
- Continual improvement: You’ll constantly be on the lookout for ways to identify and optimise impactful levers to drive continuous improvement
- Cross-functional Collaboration: Working across the business with sales and marketing teams, you’ll bring larger community efforts to life
- Metrics & Reporting: Along with your direct manager, you’ll establish the most effective measures of success for community partnerships
What you will bring:
- Proven track record in building and growing professional communities with an overall goal of increasing brand awareness and affinity
- A results-oriented mindset, holding yourself accountable for doing what you say you are going to do
- A passion for developing and nurturing relationships that benefit both parties
- Experience in a fast-moving startup culture where not everything is defined
- Entrepreneurial mindset and a willingness to get your hands dirty - often you’ll be starting these partnerships from scratch
