VP of Strategic Partnerships

What This Actually Is:

We've built predictive M&A intelligence for private equity. The kind that spots deals months before they formally hit the market. We're not pitching the future; we're showing clients companies to call today.

You'll own strategic partnerships and market expansion by activating relationships you already have. This isn't "build a network" - it's "deploy your network." If you can't generate 10 high-value introductions in your first 30 days, this role isn't for you.

You're Qualified If:

You've spent 5+ years in the deal economy (PE, VC, investment banking, corporate development) and have maintained relationships that matter.

Specifically:

• You personally know 25+ decision-makers at PE firms ($100M-$2B AUM range)
• You've closed partnership deals or facilitated capital raises before
• GPs and LPs return your calls

What You'll Do (First 90 Days):

1. Partnerships: Close 3-5 strategic partnerships (data providers, LP networks, fund admins) generating $150K+ annual revenue (reasonable for our markets). You should already know who to call.
2. PE Capital Network:
3. Market Intelligence: Map the competitive landscape across 50 target firms. You should already know half of them personally.
4. Advisory Recruitment: Bring 2-3 strategic advisors from the PE/IB world. People who take your calls.

Why This Matters Now?

The M&A intelligence market is fragmenting. Traditional databases show what happened. We show what's about to happen.

First-mover advantage in this category compounds aggressively. Firms using predictive signals are closing deals at 34% premiums vs. auction processes. The window to become the standard is 12-18 months, not 3-5 years.

What You Get:

• 120-180K (experience-dependent)
• Equity 0.5-1.5% fully diluted,
• 4yrvest / 1yr cliff
