Product Partnerships, Business

Company Overview

Every year, hundreds of thousands of businesses shut down, yet the process remains messy, expensive, and underserved. At Simple Closure, our mission is to make business shutdowns seamless, compliant, and stress free, because closing a company shouldn’t feel harder than starting one.

We recently raised our $15 million Series A and were named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2025. Backed by top investors and trusted by hundreds of startups, we’re rapidly establishing ourselves as the technology leader in this space. Join us and make an outsized impact as we create innovative solutions for businesses, their teams, and their stakeholders.

We’re looking for a Product Partnerships manager to own and scale Simple Closure’s partner ecosystem. This person develops relationships for deep integrations, negotiating win-win deals, and embedding our product where founders need it most. This is not a traditional channel or referral partnerships role, it’s about creating high-impact, integrated relationships that unlock recurring revenue and position Simple Closure as an essential part of the founder journey.

You’ll collaborate closely with the CEO, product, and sales teams to identify, structure, and execute strategic partnerships with technology platforms, financial services, and ecosystems that interact with founders at key inflection points, from startup to shutdown.

Ideal candidates MUST be located in New York City or Los Angeles metro areas.

• Develop and nurture relationships with senior decision-makers across key technology platforms, financial institutions, and ecosystem partners.
• Represent Simple Closure as a trusted, high-value partner that helps others better serve founders.
• Lead commercial negotiations to create win-win partnerships that incentivize adoption and drive mutual success.
• Ensure Simple Closure is seamlessly embedded into partner workflows and customer experiences.
• Work hand-in-hand with Product, GTM, and Operations to scope, prioritize, and execute integrations that create measurable impact.
• Use customer and partner data signals to continuously optimize how partnerships deliver value.
• Adhere to a clear, data-informed strategy for identifying and prioritizing strategic product partnerships that drive recurring revenue and scalable growth.
• Evaluate potential integrations and partnership models, ensuring strong alignment with product and business goals.
• Define and track key partnership KPIs, including revenue contribution, adoption metrics, and customer experience improvements.
• Continuously refine the partnership model to scale with Simple Closure’s growth trajectory.

• Experienced: 6+ years business development, strategic partnerships or ecosystem development, ideally within B2B SaaS, fintech, or integrated product environments.
• Technically Fluent:
  You can work with product and technical teams to identify integration opportunities and understand API-based collaboration.
• Relationship-Oriented:
  You’re skilled at building trust with senior stakeholders and navigating complex organizations.
• Deal-Minded:
  Strong commercial negotiation skills with a track record of structuring win-win partnerships.
• Entrepreneurial:
  You thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and can balance strategy with hands-on execution.

• Compensation: $120,000 to $180,000 (this includes base pay and variable compensation)
• Unlimited PTO
• Competitive equity package
• Employer Covered Medical Benefits
• Two in-person team retreats a year
• Remote in New York City or Los Angeles
