Senior Partnerships Manager

About the Role

At Taktile, we are at the forefront of enabling millions of critical, data-driven business decisions around the world every day. Our AI-powered decision engine empowers businesses to automate and scale high-stakes decision-making with precision. Trusted by leading fintechs and banks globally, our product is integral to expanding access to credit, preventing fraud, combating money laundering, and tackling a wide range of other complex challenges. We've been named category leader in Decision Management Platforms multiple times and this is only the start!

Taktile is run by a global team based in Berlin, London and New York City. Some of us attended top universities such as Harvard, Oxford, and Stanford and some of us have no degree at all. Our backers include Y Combinator, Index Ventures, Tiger Global and stellar angels such as the founders of Looker, GitHub, Mulesoft, Datadog and UiPath. You'll be working with operators that scaled companies to IPO, venture capitalists, experts from traditional banking and former consultants. 

As our Senior Partnerships Manager you’ll be responsible for managing and growing relationships with Taktile’s strategic distribution partners. Your focus will be on deepening partner engagement, driving joint go-to-market strategies, and ensuring mutual success. You will work cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, and Product teams to maximize the value of our partnerships and create meaningful impact for our customers.
