MyFunded Futures•Plano, TX

About The Position

At My Funded Futures, we’re transforming the world of proprietary trading by giving traders the capital, tools, and community they need to succeed. We blend innovation, transparency, and performance to create opportunity — helping traders scale faster and smarter. If you’re passionate about fintech, financial markets, and data-driven growth, you’ll fit right in. Explore our open roles below and see how you can help us shape the future of funded trading. Own the Relationships. Own the Room. MyFundedFutures isn't just another prop firm. We're building the brand that funded traders actually want to rep, and that means owning the partnerships, vendors, and events that put us in front of the right people at the right moments. We move fast, we ship bold, and we don't do boring. If you're someone who can walk into a room, spot the right relationship, and turn it into something that actually moves the business, we want to talk to you. The partnerships we build and the vendors we choose directly shape how the business runs and how the brand shows up in the world. This role owns both sides of that equation, from the corporate partners we align with to the events where we make our presence known.

Requirements

A track record of sourcing, negotiating, and closing partnership, vendor, or event deals, ideally in fintech, trading, or a related industry
Comfort owning a pipeline: you know your targets, your close rate, and what's needed to hit priorities
Sharp negotiation instincts, you can hold your own with vendors, event organizers, and corporate partners alike
Experience planning and executing at industry events or conferences, from strategy through on-the-ground logistics
Genuine interest in trading, markets, or prop firm culture. You don't need to be a trader, but you should get why this space is exciting
Speed without sacrificing judgment. We operate in a fast-moving, high-volume environment
Strong relationship-building instincts: you know how to keep a partner warm and how to know when a deal's gone cold
Comfort with ambiguity, multiple concurrent priorities, and things that shift daily
A thrive-in-chaos mindset: you're energized by a small, fast-paced team where the best idea wins, not the loudest title

Nice To Haves

Experience in fintech, trading platforms, or B2B partnerships
Existing network in the trading, futures, or funded trading industry
Experience negotiating vendor contracts or managing vendor relationships end-to-end
A track record of partnerships or events that moved a real growth metric, not just a logo on a slide

Responsibilities

Own the full partnership lifecycle: identify targets, pitch, negotiate, close, and manage the relationship long after ink dries
Build and run a pipeline of strategic partners across corporate/brand partnerships, fintech vendors, and industry organizations
Plan and manage our presence at industry events and conferences, from sponsorships to booth logistics to who we're meeting while we're there
Structure deals that make sense for both sides: sponsorship, co-marketing, integrations, licensing, whatever gets the right partner to yes
Partner directly with Marketing and Executive leadership to align partnerships and event strategy with brand and growth priorities
Negotiate and manage vendor relationships that affect day-to-day operations, not just external-facing partnerships
Represent us externally: industry events, vendor calls, and everywhere our name should be showing up
Turn relationships into recurring value: track performance, report on ROI, and know when to double down or walk away
Stay plugged into prop trading culture, competitor partnerships, and where the industry is headed before everyone else catches on
