We’re looking for a Brand Partnerships Manager to help build and scale our restaurant network from the ground up.
This is a hybrid sales + account management role. You’ll both bring new restaurants onto the platform and grow revenue within existing partnerships.
You’ll work directly with the founder and VP of Operations to:
- Close early restaurant partners
- Ensure they see real results
- Turn those wins into repeatable growth
You should be equally comfortable walking into a restaurant to close a new partner as you are sitting down with an operator to review performance and grow their investment.
What You’ll Do
- Own the full partnership lifecycle: Prospect, pitch, close, onboard, and grow restaurant partners
- Drive new business: Identify and close high-quality restaurant partners in the Dallas market
- Manage and grow accounts: Ensure partners are successful, retained, and expanding (reservations CPA, locations, investment)
- Lead onboarding and activation: Get restaurants live quickly and set them up for success
- Prove and communicate ROI: Translate performance into clear, compelling insights for operators
- Identify expansion opportunities: Upsell, cross-sell, and deepen partnerships over time
- Build the playbook: Document what works across sales, onboarding, and growth to support scale
- Act as the voice of the restaurant: Bring frontline insights into product and strategy
What You’ll Bring
- Deep understanding of restaurant operations and how restaurants make money, including the key levers that drive revenue, from covers and table turns to repeat guests and revenue per seat. A strong, active network within the Dallas restaurant community is highly preferred.
- 3–7 years of experience in restaurant sales, partnerships, account management, or hospitality business development
- Proven ability to close deals and grow accounts (not just maintain relationships)
- Experience working with SMBs or local businesses (restaurants a strong plus)
- Exceptional relationship-building skills - warm, credible, and persuasive
- Comfort with data, dashboards, and CRM tools like Hubspot
- High ownership mindset with strong communication habits - you follow through, close loops, and keep both partners and internal teams aligned
- Startup mindset: proactive, resourceful, organized, and excited to build from zero
- Interest or experience in creators, social media, or local discovery platforms is a plus
