Desirable

• As a Senior Manager, Business Development you will help generate revenue for Brex by developing a pipeline of partners and then executing on a go-to-market strategy for several anchor partners to drive card volume
• You will combine prior experience in partnerships/channel sales with the unique technology, partnerships and market opportunity at Brex
• Some of our engagement models include embedded card integrations, reseller motions, and co-sell relationships
• You will be deeply integrated with Product, Engineering, Sales, Product Marketing, Legal and other teams
• This is a full-stack BD role - you will lead the entire partnership lifecycle from sourcing and contracting through to product integration and activation of the first 50 customers
• You’ll collaborate cross-functionally to structure bespoke embedded payment solutions, develop joint go-to-market plans, and ensure Brex’s platform is deeply embedded in our partners' workflows
• This role is ideal for an ex-founder or high-agency operator with both product and go-to-market instincts, who thrives in ambiguity and wants to build something zero to one
• Proactively identify and source net-new partners while expanding existing partner relationships through end-to-end execution—sourcing, business case creation, legal contracting, product integration, and early customer activation
• Develop strategies for partner acquisition and expansion, identifying new verticals, market segments, and GTM pathways to support Brex’s “bend the curve” growth goals
• Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Legal, Finance, Sales, and Marketing teams to launch complex integrations and activate early usage
• Navigate ambiguity, distill complexity into actionable decisions, and take initiative in new, undefined opportunity areas
• Transition-activated partnerships to scaled go-to-market execution and performance tracking in collaboration with AE teams
• Support Brex’s growth into strategic customer segments through targeted partnerships instead of fixed vertical ownership
• Operate like a founder with ownership across strategy, documentation, integration execution, and driving impact
