About the Role

Whop is building institution-grade financial infrastructure for the next generation of entrepreneurship. Were hiring a BD lead to cut one-to-many deals that bring on thousands of new businesses to Whop. We want someone whose entire job is hunting closing and executing these partnerships until the merchants are live on Whop for payments banking and ads.

The types of partnerships we want cut:

• Creators and operators with large audiences of businesses: Codie Sanchez for SMBs Pace Morby for real estate Hormozi for small biz owners.
• Venture funds / incubators (YC A16z ZFellows Insight Bain etc)
• PE firms looking to increase margin post-acquisition across their portfolio.
• Companies already onboarding our ICP: business incorporation platforms lawyers accountants venture funds incubators.

You own the deal from end to end: scouting the partner cutting the deal and staying on it until the partners network is actively ramping on Whop. A signed contract means nothing if the merchants arent live. Once the partnership is ramping on autopilot an account manager takes over to maintain the relationship and you go hunt the next one.
