This is an individual contributor role, reporting to the Head of Partners Development, and will work closely with product, marketing, legal, and other internal partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Implement the UK partner growth strategy, identifying and activating high-potential technology and service partners.
• Own end-to-end relationship management for a portfolio of strategic partners, including commercial agreements, performance tracking, and integration oversight.
• Develop and implement go-to-market plans and joint initiatives—such as webinars, co-marketing campaigns, and events—to drive mutual business growth.
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to support API integrations and ensure scalable, efficient partner solutions.
• Use data and insights to identify performance opportunities, influence internal roadmaps, and inform partner strategy.
• Act as the key point of contact for internal cross-functional teams supporting partner success, including legal, analytics, and operations.
• Represent eBay at partner meetings, conferences, and industry events in the UK, helping to build eBay’s partner brand in the market.
• Advocate for partners internally, ensuring their needs and capabilities are well-understood across the organization.

What You Will Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
• 6-8+ years of experience in business development, partner management, or platform ecosystem roles—preferably in ecommerce, retail tech, or SaaS.
• Demonstrated experience supporting or managing API-based integrations or platform-driven business models.
• Strategic problem solver with a bias for action and strong execution skills.
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects and partners in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.
• Strong analytical and communication skills with a data-driven approach to problem-solving.
• Ability to collaborate and influence across diverse teams and partners.
