About Found

Small business owners are the backbone of the American economy. But running a small business comes with a challenges: taxes, accounting, bookkeeping, and banking are just a few. That's where we come in.

Found is building tools that give small business owners the security and peace of mind that has historically only been available at large corporations. We automates taxes and expense tracking because small business owners should spend more time doing what they love, and less time buried in their finances.

We're looking for kind, resourceful, and passionate people to join us in building the financial foundation small businesses deserve.

About the Role

Partnerships are one of the highest-leverage ways we reach the self-employed — the platforms, affiliates and creators who small business owners already trust. We're looking for a Growth Partnerships Manager to go out, find those partners, and turn them into one of Found's most durable acquisition channels.

This is a builder's role. You'll own our affiliate and referral partnerships end to end — sourcing new partners, pitching and negotiating the deal, launching them, and then growing the revenue they drive. This is a rare chance to build a channel from the ground up at a company where partnerships genuinely move the business.

What You’ll Own

Sourcing & Closing New Partners:
- Identify, research, and prospect high-potential growth partners in the small business ecosystem. Own the full deal cycle: outreach, pitch, deal structuring, negotiation, and contract.
- Design and negotiate commission and referral structures that grow volume while keeping our acquisition costs healthy.
- Onboard new partners and work directly with product and engineering to design low friction onboarding flows & implement effective incentive structures.
Growing & Managing the Portfolio
- Own the outcomes of the channel: the customers, the revenue, and the ROI it delivers. Manage relationships across your partner portfolio, running regular performance reviews against clear goals and renegotiating as partners scale.
- Build co-marketing, enablement, and cross-sell plans, and equip partners with the assets and product knowledge they need to convert. Keep partners on-brand and compliant — this is fintech, and the details matter.
- Spot underperformers, diagnose why, and either fix the partnership or move on — you decide where the channel's energy goes.
Measurement & Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Build the forecasts, budgets, and per-partner goals for the channel, and report on conversion, CAC, and revenue against them.
- Partner with Analytics and Marketing Ops to track program performance, stand up the tracking and integrations partnerships depend on (e.g. Impact), and separate what's working from what isn't.

What We’re Looking For

4–6+ years in partnerships, affiliate/channel marketing, business development, or sales, with a track record of sourcing and closing partnerships that produced measurable revenue.
A hunter's instinct: You're energized by finding new partners, getting the meeting, and closing the deal.
Negotiation and relationship skills: You build trust fast, structure deals that work for both sides, and can hold executive-level relationships as easily as you can send the first cold email.
Analytical rigor: You don't just report the numbers — you understand why one partner outperforms another, and you know what to do about it. You're comfortable in affiliate platforms and funnel metrics.
Ownership: This isn't a "set it and forget it" role. You see the data, form a hypothesis, test it, and know the next move. You flag the problem and bring the solution.
Builder energy: You do your best work in an open field with ambiguity, and you'd rather build the channel than inherit it.

Nice to Have

Fintech experience
Experience marketing to small business owners.
Familiarity with regulatory considerations for marketing content in fintech or banking.
