Money stress is the biggest productivity killer in the workplace - My Money Matters exists to change that. We're building an app that improves employees' finances automatically every pay day - giving them financial tools that directly improve their financial health with less effort.
Every pay day is an opportunity to build better money habits. We make it easy. Employees can accelerate retirement savings with tax-efficient pension top-ups, build a safety net effortlessly with auto savings, or access their already-earned salary ahead of pay day for emergencies.
For employers, fewer employees with money worries means more focus on work. We're trusted by major organisations including the NHS, and we're growing fast.
Role Overview
As Strategic Partnerships Lead, you will build two-way partnerships that create a new revenue line for My Money Matters and introduce us to new employer customers.
We already reach a large, stable public sector workforce through their employers. Partners in industries such as financial services, insurance, retail and wellbeing will pay to reach them, earning us commission or revenue share when employees take up their offers. The best partnerships work both ways: partners who already work with employers, across HR, payroll, benefits and the wider public sector, also introduce MMM to new customers.
You will own this from a blank page: the strategy, the partner mix, the commercial models and the numbers. Employees should always be better off for every product we put in front of them, so trust and good outcomes matter as much as revenue.
The role is remote, with regular travel for partner meetings and industry events.
Key Responsibilities

Pitch the value of our audience: a large, stable public sector workforce reached through their employer
Negotiate commercial terms, exclusivity, service levels and marketing commitments
