Lifetimely is an e-commerce analytics and AI platform that helps brands understand profitable growth by connecting customer, product, retention, and profitability data. The company is seeking a Partnerships Manager to own and scale two critical growth channels: agency partnerships and technology partnerships.
In this commercial, hands-on role, you will build relationships with leading retention, CRM, and e-commerce agencies while developing partnerships across the technology ecosystem (Klaviyo, Kno, Okendo, Loop, Stay, Fairing, and similar tools). Your core mandate is to turn partnerships into active distribution channels that generate qualified pipeline, customer activations, and revenue—not simply to sign partners.
Agency Partnerships: You will identify and recruit high-fit retention, CRM, lifecycle, and full-service e-commerce agencies working with established CPG, subscription, and DTC brands. Responsibilities include building relationships with agency founders and strategists, running demos and enablement sessions, helping agencies adopt Lifetimely into their core workflows, developing referral and commercial opportunities, mapping shared and prospective customers, and driving activation across agency client portfolios. You will maintain a clear pipeline from partner identification through opportunity to paying customer.
Technology Partnerships: You will develop relationships with complementary e-commerce technology platforms, identify integration and ecosystem opportunities based on customer overlap, own partner account mapping and joint customer opportunities, coordinate co-marketing campaigns and webinars, develop joint positioning and "better together" stories, run partner enablement and sales training, create reciprocal referral opportunities, and work closely with product and marketing on new integrations and launches.
Success is 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, and overall contribution to Lifetimely's growth targets. The company prioritizes productive partners over vanity logos.
You will operate independently in a fast-moving remote environment, managing multiple partner pipelines simultaneously, working across time zones with partners in North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia. This role offers the opportunity to build a major distribution channel and directly influence how Lifetimely reaches the next generation of leading e-commerce brands.
Requirements:
- 3–6+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, ecosystem, SaaS, or e-commerce
- Understanding of the Shopify and e-commerce ecosystem
- Experience working with agencies, SaaS companies, or technology partners
- Understanding of how CRM, retention, and lifecycle marketing teams operate
- Comfort discussing tools like Klaviyo, subscription platforms, reviews, attribution, and e-commerce analytics
- Ability to run commercial conversations with agency founders and technology partners
- Ability to move from relationship-building to concrete commercial opportunities
- Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple partner pipelines simultaneously
- Ability to operate independently in a remote, fast-moving company
- Comfort working across time zones with international partners
- Preferred: Experience in Shopify SaaS, retention marketing, CRM, subscription e-commerce, or the broader DTC/CPG ecosystem
