Description
About ChexyAt Chexy, we're building modern financial tools for Canadians, starting with their largest expenses. We turned rent, mortgages, tuition, insurance and other big bills into opportunities to earn rewards, improve cash flow and get more from money they already have to spend.
We're the first platform in Canada that lets people pay nearly any bill with a credit card while unlocking cashback, points and financial flexibility. Billions in payments move through Chexy, our customer base is growing fast, and we've just relaunched the brand. Over the next 12 months we launch several new products, starting with our first credit card in Q1 2027.
We're backed by Khosla Ventures, Crossbeam Venture Partners and Venrex, and we partner with Aeroplan and other leading Canadian financial and telecom brands.
About the roleChexy is hiring a Manager, Partner Marketing to own the partner channel in market: turning our partnerships with Aeroplan and other leading Canadian financial and telecom brands into offers, campaigns and placements that bring in customers. You report to the CMO. This is an individual contributor seat;
you run the channel yourself.
The commercial deal is done before it reaches you. Your job starts at the signature: what we and the partner put in market, when, with which offer, in whose channels, and what it produced. That means a co-marketing calendar across every partner, the partner offers themselves (welcome offers, points boosts, cardholder promotions, co-funded referral offers) and the partner-side approvals that get them live.
The other half of the job is the partners. You are the day-to-day relationship for their marketing and account teams: the plan, the assets, the reporting, the quarterly review and the ask for the next placement. Partners should hear from you before they have to ask.
You run on agents. Partner reporting, approval and asset tracking, and first drafts of decks, briefs and partner email copy are done by agents you build. Your time goes to partners, the calendar and what goes live next.
We care about taste, speed and results.
What you'll ownPartner go-to-marketEvery partnership from signed to live: the launch plan, the offer, the assets, the partner's approvals and the dateA co-marketing calendar across all partners: who is in market when, with what, so partner moments land on top of our launches rather than against themPartner offers end to end: mechanics, terms, the landing page (with the Senior Brand Designer) and the handoff to lifecycle for the existing base
Partner channelsPlacements in partners' channels: emails, app and web placements, cardholder communications, events and contentCo-branded pages and the creative partners run on our behalf, inside their brand rules and ours
Partner relationshipsThe day-to-day relationship with each partner's marketing and account teams: the plan, the asks, the follow-throughPartner reporting: a monthly performance read and a quarterly review every partner gets without asking, and the case for the next placementWhat partners' customers need to see before they sign up, fed back to brand and product
PipelineThe next co-marketing partners: loyalty programs, card issuers, telcos and the brands our customers already pay through Chexy. You find and qualify them and build the case;

MeasurementPartner-sourced signups, activation and CAC per partner and per campaign, against what paid deliversThe monthly partner read to the CMO: what worked, what didn't, what's next
AgentsYour own agents: partner reporting, approval and asset tracking, offer monitoring, first drafts of partner decks, briefs and email copy
Compliance and approvalsEvery co-marketing claim passes our review and the partner's. You build the templates and the rulebook so our side takes days, and you know each partner's process well enough to plan around it
What success looks likeTwelve months in:
