Ninety

5d

About The Position

The Partner Relationship Manager role is purpose-built for deep relationship work with Ninety’s most valuable partners – the coaches and consultants who are actively building their practices on our platform. Your job is simple in framing and demanding in execution: be the human these partners want to call, follow up with, and trust. You will own a defined portfolio of high-value relationships, focused entirely on retention, engagement, and growth within the existing partner community.

Success in this role looks like a partner community that feels genuinely supported – coaches who know who to call, get followed up with consistently, and deepen their trust in and referrals to Ninety over time. You’ll know you’re winning when partner retention is strong, engagement is growing within your partner portfolio, and partners are voluntarily referring new business because of the relationship.

This seat has two core components:
Retain: Ensure top-tier partners are deeply engaged, well-supported at the strategic level, and growing their use of Ninety (coach support excellence, advocacy, and partner health).
Expand: Grow depth of engagement within your existing partner portfolio – more referrals originating from trusted relationships and more partners moving up-tier over time.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to engage at all interpersonal levels.

• High level of integrity, attention to detail, and a genuine sense of urgency to make things happen.

Responsibilities

• Own a portfolio of partners — coaches and consultants with the greatest revenue potential and strategic fit.
• Conduct quarterly strategic business reviews with key partners, identifying growth opportunities, removing friction, and deepening engagement.
• Act as a strategic and trusted advisor to partners — helping them succeed with Ninety’s platform, grow their practice, and drive referrals and expansions.
• Build strong relationships with channel partner leadership teams to drive increased platform use, awareness, and reselling of Ninety.
• Utilize partner feedback systems to improve the partnership experience.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Marketing, and Support to advocate for partner needs and translate insights into action.
