Your Role
  • You will take the lead in sourcing, negotiating, executing and scaling European and global brand partnerships and corporate sales initiatives to drive N26 customer growth and brand affinity
  • Together with the CMO and international teams, you will develop and implement a global brand partnership strategy, setting aggressive goals and tracking our progress against them

  • You will create and implement a corporate sales strategy to offer customized N26 products and services to the employees or customers of relevant companies
  • Working with our business teams, other marketers and country managers, you will develop business cases and financial rationale to start and scale individual partnerships and corporate cooperation initiatives. In some cases, partnerships may evolve into deeper product-level integrations.
