Strategic Partnerships Manager

IFGlobal is a rapidly growing international fulfilment and logistics business, supporting ambitious brands with scalable eCommerce, retail and omnichannel supply chain solutions. With operations across the UK, Europe and US, we’re continuing to grow our international presence and the brands we work with. As part of that growth, we’re looking for a Strategic Partnerships Manager to build a strong network of partners who can connect IFGlobal with exciting new business opportunities.

The Role

This is a commercially focused partnerships role with a clear goal: build valuable relationships that generate qualified new business opportunities.

You’ll develop relationships with supply chain consultants and advisors who influence 3PL selection, tenders and fulfilment projects, as well as businesses across the wider eCommerce ecosystem including technology providers, agencies, carriers and marketplaces.

You’ll own these relationships from the first conversation through to activation and ongoing management, helping to make IFGlobal a recognised partner within the global eCommerce and supply chain space.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build and grow IFGlobal’s strategic partner network across the UK, Europe and US.
• Develop relationships with supply chain consultants, advisors and industry influencers.
• Identify new partnership opportunities across eCommerce, retail, technology and logistics.
• Generate qualified new business opportunities through the partner network.
• Build mutually beneficial relationships that keep partners engaged and actively referring opportunities.
• Work closely with Business Development to progress partner-generated leads.
• Coordinate joint activity including events, webinars, campaigns and introductions.
• Represent IFGlobal at industry events and networking opportunities.
• Track partner activity, pipeline and commercial performance.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll be commercially driven, confident building relationships and excited by the opportunity to develop something as the business continues to grow internationally.

Experience in strategic partnerships, business development, logistics, supply chain, eCommerce, technology, SaaS, consultancy or channel partnerships would be beneficial. You’ll also be:

• Confident engaging with senior decision-makers and industry influencers.
• Proactive and comfortable creating new opportunities.
• Commercially focused and motivated by generating pipeline.
• A natural relationship builder and networker.
• Organised and comfortable managing multiple partnerships.
• Collaborative and comfortable working across different teams.

Experience within fulfilment or logistics would be an advantage, but isn’t essential if you have a strong track record of building commercially valuable partnerships.

Why Join IFGlobal?

This is an opportunity to join IFGlobal at an exciting stage of our growth.

We’re expanding internationally, growing our customer base and building our presence across the UK, Europe and US. You’ll have the opportunity to shape how we approach strategic partnerships and build a network that directly contributes to where the business goes next.
