The Role and the Team
Phones and broadband touch almost every members life, and they are a growing part of what Blue Light Card offers to our members. Our MMIB team (Motoring, Money, Insurance and Bills) is building out its phones and broadband partnerships, and we are looking for someone to help us take them further.
As a Partner Manager, you will look after your own portfolio of partner accounts, from major mobile networks to broadband providers, and take responsibility for how each one performs for us and for our members. This is a commercial role rather than a customer service one. You will build warm, trusted relationships, negotiate, and find ways to grow every partnership. You will report to one of our Category Leads, who will support you closely in your first few months and then trust you to run your accounts as your own.
Right now, a lot of the work is quick-turnaround requests. As the team gains more time and resource, you will help us move towards a more proactive approach, bringing ideas and opportunities to partners before they come to us. You will work alongside the wider partnerships team and a close-knit category team who care about getting this right.
