Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement benefits.
More than half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future. Too often, it’s because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium-sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings.
We’re a high-growth fintech company changing the retirement industry. We are backed by a number of investors. This includes funding from Marshall Wace and Baillie Gifford, as well as top investors such as BlackRock, TPG (The Rise Fund), SoftBank, Glynn Capital, NewView Capital, USVP, Wing, Uncork, and more.
About the role
We are seeking a Senior Strategic Business Development Manager to spearhead our expansion into the National and Regional Banking channel. This is a high-impact, "hunter" role focused on accelerating commercial outcomes by identifying, securing, and activating partnerships with major financial institutions across North America.
The ideal candidate is a sophisticated deal-maker who understands the intersection of fintech and traditional banking. You will be responsible for uncovering new partnership leads, navigating complex institutional hierarchies, and turning existing network introductions into massive growth opportunities. Your goal is to position Human Interest as a top tiered partner which could include Human Interest as the embedded retirement layer of choice for the banking channel. This role will report into our Strategic Partnership team.
About the team
The Strategic Business Development team is the front line for Human Interest’s growth. We don't just manage relationships, we build markets and partnerships that open growth opportunities for the broader organization. You will join a high-performing group of builders who are disrupting how retirement benefits are delivered through the national and regional financial partnership industry.
