About Disputely
Disputely is a fintech building the refund and dispute resolution platform for D2C brands, subscription companies, and the payments ecosystem. We help merchants prevent and recover chargebacks.
The Role
You'll own the operational backbone of our partner program — managing our VAs, taking first calls with potential partners and affiliates, running our CRM, handling follow-up, and helping the founder show up only for the decision-maker conversations. Over time you'll grow into the team's lead on affiliates and partner activation as we add more partner-facing hires above you.
This is high-leverage, high-trust work. You'll learn fintech and partnerships from the inside, have direct mentorship from the founder, and own real programs that scale with the company.
What You'll Own (Responsibilities)
1. Take the calls (initial + some closing)
Our VAs book initial calls with potential partners and affiliates (ISOs, post-purchase platforms, agencies, affiliates).
You take the first qualifying / discovery call. Assess fit, learn what they need, capture key info in our CRM.
You close smaller affiliate deals and lighter partner deals yourself end-to-end — no need to escalate every conversation.
Big strategic partner deals get escalated to the founder. The founder should never sit in another low-leverage first call.
2. Manage the VAs
Run a clear ICP scorecard and qualifying script.
Hold weekly check-ins, set quotas for meetings booked, review their output.
Replace or coach the bottom performer. Make the VA layer 2× more productive than it is today.
3. Own the CRM and partner pipeline
Set up and maintain our CRM (we'll use HubSpot or Attio).
Two pipelines: Partners (ISOs, post-purchase platforms, agencies, affiliates, holding cos) and Direct (word-of-mouth merchant leads + key-account expansion).
Keep it clean. Nothing falls through the cracks.
4. Drive affiliate + slow-partner activation
Affiliates: onboard new affiliates, run light relationship management, push top affiliates for results, handle payouts. Target 20+ active affiliates within 90 days.
Slow partners: send re-engagement materials (Resolve 2-pager, intro decks), book quarterly business reviews, and push them toward activation.
5. Own all follow-up
Calendly sequences, post-call follow-up
The founder should never personally follow up with a partner or affiliate lead again.
Who We're Looking For
Required
1–3+ years in business development, sales operations, partnerships, partner ops, account coordination, or a similar role at a B2B SaaS, fintech, agency, or e-commerce company
Excellent written and spoken English — you'll be on calls with US-based partner executives weekly
Strong organizational skills — you love clean spreadsheets, clear pipelines, and well-documented processes
Comfortable on 3-5 video calls / day with senior people
CRM experience (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Attio, Salesforce, or similar)
Self-directed — you ask questions when you need to, but you can run a process end-to-end without being told every step
Fast learner — you're comfortable with new tools (Calendly, Loom, Apollo, Clay, n8n, Notion) and learn them quickly
Coachable — you take feedback well, want to grow, and aren't precious about your work
Nice to Have
Background in payments, e-commerce, D2C, SaaS, or fintech
Experience managing virtual assistants or junior teammates
Experience running or supporting an affiliate or referral program
LinkedIn outbound / cold
Experience at a startup under 50 people (you know how to wear multiple hats)
We're NOT looking for
A senior closer / quota-carrying AE who only wants to close (you'll close some affiliate / smaller deals, but the bulk of this role is operations + activation, not pure sales)
A marketer (we have agencies)
Someone who needs hand-holding through every task
Someone who's only motivated by the title or the next promotion — this role is for someone who wants to build
What You'll Get
Performance bonuses tied to:
Partner meetings booked into the founder's calendar
Partner-sourced revenue closed
Affiliate program signups and activations
CRM hygiene and pipeline accuracy
100% remote, work from anywhere (some overlap with US Eastern time required, ~4 hrs/day)
Direct mentorship from the founder — you'll learn fintech, partnerships, and operations from someone in the room
Path to grow as the partner team grows above you — first promotion target: Partner Development Manager or Affiliate Program Manager within 12 months
Real ownership of programs that will scale with the company for years
No bureaucracy — small team, fast decisions, ship fast
*Disputely is an equal-opportunity employer. We hire for talent, drive, and fit — not for pedigree.*
