About the Role

Bettervits is one of the UK's fastest-growing nutrition brands, and we're on a mission to become the biggest. We're looking for an ambitious, commercially-minded Partnerships Manager to help unlock new growth channels through strategic partnerships, sponsorships, talent relationships, brand collaborations, events, affiliates, and business development opportunities.

You'll be responsible for identifying and executing high-impact partnerships that increase brand awareness, drive customer acquisition, and position Bettervits alongside leading brands, personalities, events, and organisations globally.

Whether it's securing a celebrity ambassador, negotiating a major sports sponsorship, launching a co-branded product, building affiliate relationships, or creating strategic partnerships with complementary brands, you'll be at the centre of making it happen.

Role Overview

You will own the partnerships pipeline from idea to execution.

Working closely with leadership, marketing, creative, and performance teams, you'll identify opportunities that can meaningfully grow the business and elevate the brand.

You'll be expected to think commercially, negotiate confidently, build meaningful relationships, and constantly seek new opportunities that others aren't pursuing.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify, develop, and execute high-value partnership opportunities.
• Build relationships with brands, agencies, talent managers, sports organisations, media groups, and commercial partners.
• Source and evaluate sponsorship opportunities across sport, entertainment, wellness, and culture.
• Negotiate commercial agreements, sponsorship packages, licensing rights, exclusivity terms, and partnership contracts.
• Develop creative partnership concepts that drive mutual value for both parties.
• Source, negotiate, and manage celebrity, athlete, expert, and ambassador partnerships.
• Evaluate talent opportunities based on brand fit, audience alignment, and commercial return.
• Coordinate partnership activations across marketing, content, PR, retail, and paid media channels.
• Manage ongoing relationships with talent representatives and agencies.

What You'll Bring

• Experience in partnerships, sponsorships, business development, brand collaborations, talent management, or strategic alliances.
• Strong commercial negotiation skills.
• Existing network across agencies, talent representatives, sports organisations, media companies, or consumer brands is highly desirable.
• Ability to identify opportunities and independently drive them forward.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
• Excellent project management and organisational abilities.
• Commercial mindset with a focus on measurable business outcomes.

Why Work With Us

• Fully remote – work from anywhere
• Competitive compensation package
• Flexible working environment
• High-trust culture with no micromanagement
• Significant autonomy and ownership
• Opportunity to build partnerships with some of the world's most recognised brands, personalities, and organisations
• Huge growth potential as we scale
