What You’ll Do:
- Identify, build, and expand go-to-market partnerships with leading local Shopify agencies, consultants, app partners, and platform employees with the goal of driving brand awareness and sourcing new referrals, pipeline growth, and closed revenue.

- Regularly provide the Loop leadership team with regional market trends, product requirements, merchant needs, competitor intel, and opportunities to accelerate our regional growth.
- Work alongside our new UK Logistics Partner Manager to connect the dots and maximize Loop’s regional product and go-to-market opportunities.
- Attend and speak at industry events to support regional marketing activities, and regularly travel to meet partners in person as much as needed.
Your Experience:
- You have deep local market Shopify ecosystem knowledge, insight into ecommerce trends, and an existing rolodex of established relationships across Shopify ecosystem (agency founders, Shopify employees, GTM leaders etc)
- 4+ years of channel sales or strategic business development experience with SaaS-based platforms, retail technologies, and/or digital agencies.
- Proven track record of hitting revenue targets, owning/forecasting a pipeline, and creating go-to-market playbooks.
- Highly resourceful and entrepreneurial operator who can work with a high level of autonomy in a fast-moving company and collaborate with cross-functional, global teams.
- First-class relationship builder and seasoned public speaker and presenter with the ability to persuade, inspire, and motivate others.
- Strategic agility - you see ahead, anticipate relationship and decision-making dynamics, and naturally adapt to situations.
- You’re a strong active listener and communicator, and have examples to share of how you’ve brought consensus to a variety of challenging situations.
- You are willing and able to travel 25% of the time to meet with new and existing partners and establish in-person relationships

In a perfect world, Loop wouldn’t exist. If we had our way, we’d live in a world where we’re mindful about how we consume, we love every product we own, and we share values with the brands who create them. In reality, commerce isn’t perfect and often breaks. Loop creates second chances.
We’re starting by revolutionizing the post-purchase experience. We’ve taken one of the most fragile commerce interactions - returns - and turned it into something consumers actually love, and that deepens our connection to brands and products.
We take connection seriously on the inside, too. We’re building a work experience that allows you to Be A Human First and prioritizes empathy and wellbeing. We view Loop as a special place in your career to shape the future of an industry and become a better person while doing it. You can grow faster here in a shorter amount of time - we’ll give you space and trust you to fill it.
