Partnership Manager (Part-Time, Remote)

Location: Remote (must be able to work normal EST working hours) Compensation: $2,500/month base + commission + partnership bonuses | Year 1 total comp target: $45,000-$50,000 BlueTuskr is hiring a part-time Partnership Manager to grow and manage our agency partnership program. This is a remote, 20-hour-per-week role for someone with strong communication skills, sales instincts, and the relationship-building skills to manage executive-level partner relationships with SaaS companies and complementary service providers. Strong potential to grow into a full-time role within 6-12 months as the program scales. About BlueTuskr BlueTuskr is a full-service e-commerce marketing agency, and a proud winner of Amazon's Agency of the Year. We help DTC and Amazon brands grow through paid ads, email/SMS, and SEO. We're certified partners with Amazon, Walmart, Shopify Plus, Google, Meta, TikTok, Klaviyo, Omnisend, Pacvue, SEMrush, and Helium 10 - basically every platform that matters in our space. Our partnership program is one of our most important growth channels. We have active partner relationships with SaaS companies, complementary agencies, and service providers across the e-commerce ecosystem who refer clients to us. We pay our partners 10% commission on closed deals for the life of the client, which is generous by industry standards and the reason our partners stay engaged. Many of these relationships are reciprocal: when our partners close deals from leads we send them, we earn commission too. We have around 10 partners under formal agreement today, with about 5 actively sending leads. We have a long list of potential partners we haven't activated yet. This role exists to change that. The Role You will own our partnership program end-to-end. You'll grow it, manage it, and turn it into a meaningful revenue channel for BlueTuskr. Reporting directly to our CEO to start, you'll be responsible for five things: Recruiting new partners. You'll identify potential partners (SaaS tools, complementary agencies, service providers in adjacent spaces), reach out to partnership decision-makers, run intro calls, and bring new partners into the program. Managing active partner relationships. Monthly or quarterly check-ins with each partner. Keeping them engaged, informed, and equipped with the materials they need to refer clients to us. Facilitating co-marketing. Joint webinars, shared blog content, dedicated email blasts, and co-branded case studies. You'll coordinate these initiatives between our partners and our internal marketing team. Connecting partner tools and services to our clients. When a partner offers something useful to our clients, you'll relay that information to our accounts team so we can extend value back through the channel. Managing reciprocal referrals to partners. Our partnerships are two-way - when we send leads to our partners, we expect to receive commission on those closed deals as well. You'll be responsible for tracking the leads we send out, following up to see if they closed, and ensuring we collect what we're owed. This is a hybrid sales and relationship management role. You'll need to be comfortable both pitching the partnership program to new partners and maintaining warm, productive relationships with existing ones over time. The Growth Path This role starts at 20 hours per week. If the program grows the way we believe it can, this becomes a full-time role within 6-12 months - with a corresponding increase in base salary and an expanded scope. We have a strong belief that partnerships are one of our highest-leverage growth channels, and we are committed to investing in the person who can prove that out.
