Partnerships Manager – Business Development
Elev8 Group | London | Full-time | On-site
Company Description
Elev8 Group is a fast-growing foreign exchange business helping UK companies manage international payments, currency risk and global growth.
We provide businesses with access to competitive FX rates, multi-currency collection accounts, international payment solutions, risk management and trade finance - combining strong financial infrastructure with a highly personal, relationship-led service.
Since launching in 2024, we've worked with 700+ corporate clients and exchanged more than £200 million, and we're continuing to expand our commercial team in London.
The Role
We're looking for a commercially driven Partnerships Manager to join our London team.
Despite the title, this is fundamentally a business development role. You'll be responsible for building your own network, developing relationships with business owners and decision-makers, generating new opportunities and ultimately bringing new corporate clients into Elev8.
This isn't a role centred around sitting behind a desk managing existing partnerships. We want someone who enjoys meeting people, opening doors and creating business.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll have the freedom to develop your own approach - whether that's through direct outreach, networking, introductions, events, LinkedIn, referral relationships or simply getting out for coffees and lunches with the right people.
What You'll Be Doing
- Building and managing your own pipeline of prospective corporate clients
- Developing relationships with founders, directors, CFOs and finance teams
- Identifying businesses with international payment and foreign exchange requirements
- Generating new opportunities through outbound business development
- Building a strong professional network across London and the wider UK business community
- Attending networking events, lunches, meetings and industry events
- Developing referral relationships with accountants, advisers, consultants and other professional introducers
- Meeting prospective clients and understanding how Elev8 can support their international business
- Working closely with our account management and operations teams to onboard and support new clients
- Managing opportunities through our CRM from initial conversation through to becoming an active client
- Contributing directly to the continued growth of Elev8

Who We're Looking For
We're less interested in someone who has spent years with the exact title "Partnerships Manager" and more interested in finding someone who is naturally commercial, ambitious and good with people.
You'll ideally have:
- Confidence speaking with founders, directors and senior decision-makers
- Strong networking and interpersonal skills
- A proactive mentality - you're comfortable creating opportunities rather than waiting for leads
- Excellent communication and presentation skills
- The ability to manage your own pipeline and stay organised
- A competitive and ambitious mindset
Why Elev8?
We're building a business where strong commercial people can have a genuine impact.
You'll be joining an ambitious team in the City of London with the opportunity to build your own network, develop commercially and play a meaningful role in the next stage of Elev8's growth.
For the right person, this isn't just about filling a Partnerships Manager position - it's an opportunity to build a serious book of business, develop long-term relationships and grow with the company.
