Health insurance is complicated, expensive, and intimidating. At SimplyInsured, we are on a mission to eliminate that fear. We empower small business owners—the backbone of the economy—by making the enormous task of providing health insurance transparent, accessible, and dead-simple.
Born in Y-Combinator and backed by top-tier investors like Polaris Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners, we are disrupting a convoluted industry through massive partnerships with NetSuite, Toast, and Square.
The Role: The Growth EngineAs our Senior Strategic Partnerships Manager, you will report directly to the CEO and serve as the face of SimplyInsured to our most valuable allies. You aren't just "managing accounts"; you are an architect of revenue. You will be responsible for nurturing our existing ecosystem—including major platforms like Toast and Square—while identifying and unlocking new revenue streams through creative co-marketing and deep-funnel integrations.
This is a high-visibility role for a proactive relationship-builder who thrives on hitting growth targets and building long-term value.

- Competitive Pay: Strong base salary plus a 10-25% annual performance bonus.
