Brand Partner Manager - B2B Drinks Platform – England – Up to £50,000 plus package 

This is a rare chance to join an ambitious B2B drinks-industry startup at the very beginning—giving you the opportunity to fast-track your career, shape your role, and grow as they disrupt the UK drinks trade with an innovative, profit-boosting platform.

The Brand Partner Manager will work with independent, founder-led drinks brands—guiding them from initial interest through to signed partnership and successful onboarding. This is a consultative, relationship-led sales role focused on quality conversion rather than cold outreach or high-volume activity.

• Deliver fast, high-quality onboarding and ensure full partner activation
• Create compelling brand profiles that drive buyer engagement
• Support partners in activating their existing on-trade customer networks
• Maintain regular contact to drive partner engagement, retention, and growth
• Track performance, monitor activity, and proactively address disengagement
