    About this role

    WHO ARE WE?

    Launch Potato is the discovery and conversion company. We reach tens of millions of people every month through our brands, including FinanceBuzz, All About Cookies, and OnlyInYourState. We turn that attention into real outcomes for our partners, some of the world’s leading companies.

    Our mission: create predictable, high-value customer acquisition at scale by connecting discovery, intent, and performance across category-leading consumer brands in finance, travel, and entertainment.

    We run profitable and bootstrapped, with a South Florida HQ and a remote-first team across 18 countries.

    WHY JOIN US?

    You own outcomes here, not tasks. We measure work by impact, not activity. The pace is real, and change is constant, so the people who do best turn change into opportunity instead of waiting for it to settle. Feedback runs direct and lands with respect. Ordinary people make themselves extraordinary at Launch Potato.

    THE ROLE

    We’re looking for a hands-on Partnerships & BD expert to grow our banking, deposits, and investing partners, and to bring on the ones we haven’t met yet. Most of the job, roughly 70 to 80 percent, is growing the partners we already have: bigger budgets, better economics, broader distribution.

    The rest is net new, mostly warm, with real outreach on the investing side where the relationships don’t exist yet.

    You’ll work alongside our Head of Partnerships, who will continue to focus on our largest strategic partners. On those strategic partners, you’ll run the operations. Across the rest of banking, deposits, and investing, you own it fully, operationally and strategically. That’s what gives the Head of Partnerships room for the biggest bets, and it’s what makes this seat yours.

    This isn’t a support role, and it isn’t customer service. The job is to grow relationships, not just service them.
