About Street Group

Street Group is one of the fastest-growing PropTech companies in the UK. We want to be the leading creator of delightful experiences for everybody involved in buying, selling, renting and letting property, regardless of their involvement, to improve the industry for everybody by elevating UK Estate Agencies through world-class technology.

Partnerships are central to how we grow: the more valuable and connected our ecosystem, the stickier and more useful our platform becomes for agents.

As our first dedicated partnerships hire, you'll set the strategy whilst staying hands-on - building the function from the ground up, closing the early partnerships yourself, and creating the playbook, processes and (eventually) team that scale it. You'll own partnerships end-to-end and have autonomy to define what "good" looks like here.

You'll be the sole owner of partnerships at a pivotal growth stage, with a direct line to leadership and real influence over company direction. Expect to move between big-picture strategy and rolling up your sleeves on individual deals - often in the same day. Success in year one looks like a defined strategy, a working operating model, and a first cohort of live, revenue-generating partnerships you've closed yourself.

 

What You'll Do

  • Build the strategy and the function - define and own our partnerships strategy, aligned to company growth goals, and decide which partner types and verticals to prioritise first.

  • Grow the partner ecosystem - recruit and onboard PropTech providers to build integrations with our platform (e.g. an app marketplace/API ecosystem), giving agents more of the tools they use in one place, and develop relationships with third-party, industry-adjacent providers who work with or add value to shared customers.

  • Drive commercial results - own partner-driven growth targets and be accountable for the revenue and pipeline partnerships generate.

  • Work cross-functionally - partner closely with Product and Engineering to prioritise/develop integrations and shape the partner/developer experience.

  • Set up to scale - build the enablement, tooling and processes that let partnerships grow beyond you.

Who We're Looking For

  • Proven track record building and closing partnerships in B2B SaaS - including technology/integration or channel partnerships.

  • Genuinely comfortable as a player-coach: happy to build process and personally do the deals.

  • Strong commercial and negotiation instincts; can structure deals and speak credibly to revenue.

  • Cross-functional operator who works naturally with Product, Sales and Marketing.

  • Comfortable with ambiguity and building from a blank page - you see the absence of existing structure as an opportunity, not a blocker.

  • Excellent relationship-builder who can earn trust with senior stakeholders at partner companies.

Bonus Points

  • Experience in PropTech, or selling to/partnering within the property or estate agency sector.

  • Familiarity with marketplace or API/ecosystem partnership models.

  • Experience as an early or founding hire in a function.
