Partnership Marketer at CitizenShipper

Partnership Marketer: High-Stakes. High-Upside. No Tourists.

This isn’t your cozy “brand partnership” gig.

This is wartime marketing.

We’re looking for someone who can sniff out opportunity, make the call, close the deal, and then scale it like hell.

You’re not a relationship manager. You’re a revenue hunter. A zero-to-one operator. A builder with charm, teeth, and fire in your chest.

If you’ve been waiting for a role with actual ownership, upside, and power, this is your shot.

The Mission

We’re CitizenShipper, a US-based, remote-first two-sided marketplace reinventing pet transportation (and other hard-to-move items). Think Uber + Airbnb, but for people who need to move their pets across the country, safely, emotionally, reliably.

It’s not logistics. It’s love, in motion.

We’re profitable, growing fast, and still lean. The team is sharp. The product is strong. And we’ve barely scratched the surface of the partnership potential in this $10 B+ category.

There are pet platforms. Vet networks. Rescues. Shelters. Travel companies. DTC brands. Animal orgs. Creators. The whole damn ecosystem is begging for the right partner who can unlock value — for them, for us, for the mission.

That’s where you come in.

The Role

We’re hiring a Partnership Marketer to build and scale strategic alliances that drive growth. Not just co-branded blog posts. We mean:

• Revenue-driving affiliate programs
• White-label deals
• Integrations that embed us into other platforms
• Creator/influencer collabs that actually convert
• Cross-channel promos with real ROI
• Tactical “what-if” deals with no one else being brave or fast enough to execute
  

You’ll own it all — sourcing, closing, onboarding, and scaling. You’ll run it like a P&L. You’ll be measured by impact, not politics. And you’ll report directly to the CEO.

What You’ll Do

• Build and own our affiliate + partnership growth engine
• Source new partners — platforms, influencers, brands, organizations — and pitch like hell
• Negotiate deals that actually matter — no fluff, no vanity plays
• Run co-marketing campaigns and make sure both sides win
• Work closely with product, growth, and ops to make integrations stick
• Track performance, iterate relentlessly, and scale what works
• Spot patterns, move fast, and be the first call when opportunity knocks

You’ll have full autonomy, a loaded deck of brand equity, and a product that truly helps people, your job is to weaponize it through brilliant, brave partnerships.

Compensation

We’ll pay top-of-market for top-of-market. If you can make us grow, we’ll make you rich.

The Dare

This is not for the faint-hearted. This is not a résumé-padding gig.

This is for someone who wants to build a rocket with their bare hands — and then pilot it into orbit.

If this JD made your blood rush, send us something that proves it. A Loom. A list of partnerships you’d pursue. A past campaign. A note that shows you’re already thinking five steps ahead.

Requirements

Who You Are

You’re not a “partnership person.” You’re a builder with a marketing brain and killer instincts. You:

• Have 3–8 years of experience in marketing, BD, growth, or founder-style roles
• Know how to create value, not just “collaborate”
• Write cold emails like a sniper. Pitch decks like a beast. Close like a killer.
• Understand affiliate models, rev-share, joint campaigns, and LTV math
• Can hold your own in the C-suite — but prefer to move over “manage”
• Are allergic to red tape and can run your own show
• Live for the craft, not the perks
• Are you ready to give 60–80 hour weeks to something that actually matters
  

Startup background? Even better. You’ve probably built something yourself. You think in systems. You act on outcomes.

Benefits

At CitizenShipper, we’re committed to supporting our team’s growth, well-being, and work-life balance. Here’s what you can expect as part of our remote-first culture:

• Book Club – Get reimbursed (up to $50/month) for professional development books of your choice.
• Professional Development – $2,000 annual budget + 3 paid days off to attend courses, conferences, or trainings.
• Flexible Paid Leave – Generous vacation time, 5 national holidays per calendar year, and 5 additional bereavement days.
• Light Work Week – Once per quarter, reduce your workload to 15-20 hours/week to recharge and prevent burnout.
• Parental Leave – Up to 14 weeks of paid maternity/paternity leave with flexible options.
• Sick Leave – 7 days of paid sick leave annually, plus extended paid leave options in serious cases.
• Referral Bonus

Play it safe, and you’ll be ignored.

Play to win, and we’ll know you’re the one.

Let’s make something the world can’t ignore.
