B2B Partnership Manager. Ireland

Overview

We are seeking a driven B2B Partnership Manager based in Ireland to grow our partnership programme across the Irish market. This is a remote, commission-based role focused on identifying, contacting, and closing partnerships with beauty academies, skills academies, and training providers.

You will introduce The Student Partnership Programme to decision-makers who want to better prepare graduates for real-world client acquisition and online growth. The programme is already proven and in demand, so your role is to open doors, build trust, and convert conversations into long-term partnerships.

Founded by Jeni Assandey, ex-Google and Fractional CMO with 17 years of experience, The Marketing Support helps businesses and students simplify digital marketing and AI for better outcomes.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Prospect and reach out to academy owners, directors, and key decision-makers across Ireland.
• Build and manage a pipeline of potential B2B partners from initial outreach through to close.
• Present the value of The Student Partnership Programme clearly and confidently.
• Develop strong relationships with training providers and maintain regular follow-up communication.
• Handle objections, negotiate partnership terms, and secure new agreements.
• Track outreach activity, pipeline progress, and conversion results.
• Work independently to identify opportunities and grow market penetration in Ireland.
• Represent The Marketing Support professionally and warmly in every interaction.

What Makes This Role Unique

• Commission-based with strong earning potential: your income grows directly with the partnerships you secure and the seats your partners fill.
• Proven offer: you are not selling an untested concept; you are bringing a solution that already works.
• High-impact market opportunity: the programme addresses a genuine gap for graduates who need support getting clients online.
• Autonomy and flexibility: remote role with the freedom to manage your own schedule and pipeline.
• Meaningful mission: help students and training providers access practical digital marketing support that improves outcomes.

• Based in Ireland with strong knowledge of the Irish business and education/training landscape.
• Demonstrated success in sales, partnerships, business development, or outreach-driven roles.
• Excellent relationship-building skills with the ability to connect quickly with decision-makers.
• Confident communicator with strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfortable with outbound prospecting, cold outreach, and follow-up.
• Ability to manage a personal pipeline and work independently in a remote environment.
• Strong negotiation and closing skills, with a practical, results-focused mindset.
• Warm, professional, and resilient approach to sales conversations.
• Self-motivated and organized, with the drive to earn through commission-based performance.
• Experience working with academies, education providers, training organisations, or B2B services is an advantage but not essential.

• Highly generous commission structure with strong earning potential.
• Remote working with flexibility to manage your own schedule.
• Opportunity to work with a proven, in-demand programme.
• Clear value proposition that is easier to sell than a cold-start offer.
• Autonomy to build and own your Irish market pipeline.
• Chance to represent a credible brand founded by an ex-Google and Fractional CMO leader.
• Meaningful work that supports students and training providers.
