Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2026 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?

Reporting to the Senior Manager of Strategic Partnerships, you will operate at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and cross-functional execution — helping unlock new opportunities, monitor performance, and ensure our partnerships run smoothly and deliver measurable impact.

This role is ideal for a highly analytical, organized, and proactive operator who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys combining data-driven insights with hands-on execution. Additionally, this position is available to candidates working 2-3 days a week hybrid in either our NYC, SF, or Salt Lake City office. Candidates relocating to our hubs may be eligible for relocation assistance.

  • Coordinate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Legal, and Analytics to ensure timely execution of partner deliverables and initiatives
Analytics & Performance Insights
  • Monitor partner performance metrics, forecasts, and pipelines to identify trends, risks, and opportunities
  • Guide data-informed partnership decisions by leveraging existing dashboards, driving new dashboard design and building models and analyses that support revenue growth
  • Conduct analytical deep dives to unlock new opportunities and provide recommendations to senior leaders
  • Support business case development and scenario modeling for new partnership initiatives
Strategic Support
  • Assist in developing process improvements, operating rhythms, and frameworks to scale the partnership function
  • Provide insights and help drive strategic recommendations to continuously enhance partnership value
  • Help maintain internal documentation, trackers, and reporting for partnership initiatives and performance
Key Qualifications:
  • 3+ years of experience in top-tier consulting, investment banking or operating experience at a high growth startup
  • Strong analytical capabilities with experience in performance analysis, or data-driven problem solving
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to distill insights clearly and prepare polished internal and external materials
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail; able to manage multiple projects, dependencies, and stakeholders simultaneously
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, dynamic environments and adapting quickly as priorities evolve
  • Proactive mindset with strong ownership, follow-through, and a bias toward action
  • Bachelor’s degree required

Please speak with your recruiter for additional information regarding the specific range for your location.
