What We Are Looking For

Puzzle is redefining how companies navigate and leverage their financials. Our cutting-edge accounting software seamlessly integrates with modern fintech tools, offering founders and finance teams a real-time, holistic view of their financial landscape. Our mission: empower entrepreneurs with insights and tools to make confident, data-driven decisions.

In just our first few years, we've built powerful partnerships with industry leaders like Ramp, Brex, and Mercury, making our partner channel one of our fastest-growing revenue drivers.

Now, we're looking for a founding Senior Partner Marketing Manager to take our thriving partnership ecosystem to the next level. You'll join at a pivotal moment, as our partnerships with leaders like Rippling, Deel, and Y Combinator are scaling rapidly and new opportunities are emerging weekly. This isn't just about managing existing relationships – it's about building and executing a comprehensive partner marketing strategy that will become a cornerstone of Puzzle's growth.

Working directly with our Head of Product Marketing, you'll have the autonomy to shape our partner marketing function from the ground up. You'll be the driving force behind campaigns that not only strengthen our existing partnerships but also unlock new channels for growth. Whether it's crafting compelling co-marketing initiatives, developing partner enablement programs, or identifying new collaboration opportunities, your work will directly impact Puzzle's trajectory.

This is your chance to join a well-funded startup led by an accomplished fintech founder. Join us remotely from anywhere in the US or Canada and help us build a thriving partnerships program.
