Partnerships Manager at a 30+ person ecommerce SaaS startup (Dema), owning strategic partner relationships and building a referral pipeline. Full-time, on-site London role with £50–70k base + bonus, measured on qualified opportunities and referral conversion. Not a fractional or interim fit.

01

Full-time Partnerships Manager (UK) — the balanced verdict

Why this role stands out

  • Clear ownership of a live programme from day one with measurable KPIs (referral volume, quality, conversion)
  • Hands-on commercial role at a well-funded, founder-led scale-up with real product-market fit (7 named brand customers)
  • Structured onboarding and cross-team access (Stockholm trips, partner mechanics expertise valued)

Worth checking before you apply

  • On-site, full-time commitment (40 hours/week, London office) rules out fractional placement
  • Role requires deep domain knowledge of ad platforms/agencies/martech partner mechanics — niche domain expertise required
  • Bonus structure and KPI weighting not specified; incentive alignment unclear

About Dema

Dema is the agentic operating system for commerce brands. We connect a brand's website, orders, ads, stock, costs and returns into one commerce model, with shared metric definitions all the way down to CM3. On top of that sit marketing mix modelling, incrementality testing and causal attribution, plus chat, apps your team can build just by describing them, and AI agents that run scheduled work and act once the team approves.

Leading brands run on Dema, including Acne Studios, ASKET, Axel Arigato, Represent, NOTHS, Ridestore and Scuffers. On average, brands using Dema's agents grew profit 40% year on year, and users save around 34 hours a month.

Marcus Tagesson, Henrik Hoffman and David Feldell founded Dema in 2022. As ecommerce operators themselves, they set out to give every brand the kind of analytics usually reserved for the industry's giants. Today a team of 30+ engineers and growth experts builds Dema from Stockholm and London.

The role

  • London, in office.

You'll turn Dema's strategic partnerships into a predictable source of qualified pipeline. You'll own our relationship with a key partner end to end, with more to follow, and you'll be measured on the qualified opportunities our partners bring us. This is a role for someone who wants to take a live programme and make it their own from week one.

What you'll do

Own Dema's strategic partner relationships day to day, from senior sponsors to the account teams who make introductions.

Turn partnerships into a repeatable referral engine: agree the model, build the process and run it.

Qualify referred brands against our ideal customer profile before handing them to an Account Executive.

Equip partner teams to introduce Dema well, with talk tracks, qualification guides and co-branded materials.

Report on referral volume, quality and conversion, and use that data to decide where to invest.

What we offer

  • £50–70k base salary with a performance bonus.
  • 25 days' holiday plus UK public holidays, private health insurance and pension.
  • Real ownership of a programme the business is investing in, with time in Stockholm alongside the wider Dema team (typically once a month).
