Partnerships & Community Manager

Lead and grow Genie’s entire partnerships and community function, creating high-impact relationships that scale our brand, product and revenue. Working across multiple industries, ecosystems and user groups, gaining deep insight into how partnerships shape product strategy, go-to-market motion and adoption. Your partnerships will unlock new markets, accelerate revenue and build thriving communities that influence Genie’s roadmap and amplify our presence globally.

Your purpose in our mission: We’ve raised $17.8 million in Series A funding led by Google Ventures and joined by Khosla Ventures. They believe in our vision that the law should be accessible to everyone, and this is where your skills come in. As our Partnerships & Community Manager, you’ll drive one of the most strategically important growth channels at Genie AI. You will establish, nurture and scale high-impact partnerships across universities, industry bodies, accelerators, and global distributors. You’ll also build and activate communities within our user base; a critical feedback engine that influences product, brand and revenue.

Your manager and team: Our org structure is made up of pods with distinct areas of focus to keep us all working on the most impactful things for our customers all of the time. Some of our team members work across multiple pods. Our structure was conceived with impact, autonomy and velocity in mind and we’d love to share more with you throughout our interview process. Your manager, Ed Kendall, Head of Sales, will develop your skills and enable you to deliver on the pod mission.

This is what you’ll be doing: As our Partnerships & Community Manager, you’ll build and scale a brand-new function at Genie, shaping how we engage with organisations, industries and users across the world. Your work will blend strategy, relationship-building, community development and on-the-ground execution. You’ll be trusted with high autonomy and clear outcomes:

• Build and drive our partnerships strategy: Design and implement Genie’s end-to-end partnership strategy across universities, industry bodies, accelerators, innovation hubs and international distributors. Identify the partnerships that will create the highest value for Genie - from brand amplification to product insight to revenue impact.
• Grow our affiliate and referral ecosystem: Own and scale our affiliate programmes for our Pro Plan customers and referral channels. Drive high-volume, high-quality signups through compelling propositions, strong relationship management and performance tracking.
• Develop enterprise and market-expansion partnerships: Build distributor-based partnerships in key global markets to support adoption. Form strategic relationships with business groups, trade associations, chambers of commerce and other influential networks.
• Build and activate user communities: Create, nurture and moderate user communities across Slack, Reddit and Discord. Design curated groups for different customer segments to unlock insights, foster collaboration and elevate customer loyalty. Spark engagement through thoughtful moderation, content, discussions and helpful resources, energising and protecting the community.
• Manage and deepen active partnerships: Take ownership of existing relationships and progress them through co-marketing, sponsorships, shared initiatives and MOUs. Ensure every partnership has momentum, clarity and measurable value for Genie.
• Lead outreach and relationship development: Build targeted prospect lists and craft compelling messaging tailored to each segment. Drive outreach through a multi-channel approach (LinkedIn, email, events, phone, warm networks). Nurture relationships from first contact to formal collaboration.
• Lead key Genie events as the Project Lead: Owning the strategy, vision and outcomes for each event, while receiving strong support from the team on logistics, organisation and execution.
• Support thought leadership & external visibility: Partner with senior leaders who can act as the “face” of strategic announcements or joint initiatives. Orchestrate moments that elevate Genie’s profile and reinforce our position within the ecosystem.

This is how we’ll set you up for success and the outcomes we expect from you: Over your first 90 days we can expect us to help point you in the right direction to set you up for success. By the end of your first six months we expect you to be:

• Running a clear partnerships strategy with prioritised target segments.
• Driving a measurable stream of revenue through affiliates and partnerships.
• Successfully establishing 5-10 high-quality partnerships with universities, industry bodies or distributors.

We’ll continually develop and measure success on the below criteria:

• Revenue generated directly from partnerships.
• Strength and credibility of Genie’s brand through strategic collaborations.
• Product insights, data or opportunities unlocked via partnership ecosystems.

We are a start-up in an exceptionally dynamic stage of our growth. We are a customer and employee led organisation.
