Job description

Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2026 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?

About the Role

Flex is seeking a tenacious, results-driven Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships to build, manage, and scale large revenue-driving enterprise partnerships for the company. This role is ideal for a high-agency strategic operator with a proven track record launching and growing partnerships that drive measurable P&L impact. You will take full ownership, driving strategy, execution, and long‑term relationship management to maximize business results for your partnerships. Reporting to the Head of Strategic Partnerships and working closely with executive leadership and cross‑functional teams, you will play a pivotal role in accelerating Flex’s growth.

This position is available to candidates working 2-3 days a week hybrid in either our NYC or SF office. Candidates relocating to our hubs may be eligible for relocation assistance.

Leadership and Strategy:

Develop and implement scalable processes, frameworks, and best practices to support partnership acquisition and growth

Align partnership efforts with Flex’s broader organizational objectives, serving as a strategist and thought leader

Key Qualifications

12+ years of experience in FinTech/SaaS business development, strategic partnerships, strategic account management, or at a top-tier strategy consulting firm

Proven success in sourcing, structuring, and closing complex, high-impact strategic partnerships or enterprise client deals

Demonstrated ability to deliver end-to-end results through launch and post-launch phase, working closely with cross-functional stakeholders internally and externally
