purpose and looking for people who want to build something meaningful with lasting impact. With the recent acquisition by Strava
accelerating our journey, now is a really magical time to join. 🚀
We’re seeking an experienced, hands-on Senior Partnerships Associate to help maintain and scale Runna’s US race partnership
programme/ one of our key growth areas. Based in New York City (3 days per week in-office), you’ll be responsible for managing and
growing, and driving the end-to-end success of our race partnerships. This includes identifying and onboarding new races,

2. Continuously test, analyse, and optimise race partnerships using data and insights, reporting on performance, identifying
trends, and making clear, data-led decisions to improve engagement, conversion, and runner experience.
3. Collaborate with race and brand partners to refine content, communications, and value propositions, ensuring they remain
relevant, compelling, and effective.

seasonal moments, and broader brand initiatives.
5. Keep partners informed on product updates and new features, clearly articulating how these improve outcomes for both
partners and their runners.
2. Growing Runna’s race partnership programme
1. Proactively identify, evaluate, and secure new race partnerships across our US market, with a strong focus on selecting the
right races that align with Runna’s growth and brand strategy. You’ll fully own race selection - identifying standout
opportunities, prioritising them, and bringing them live as official Runna training partnerships.
2. Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of race partnerships: from discovery and negotiation, through onboarding, launch,
day-to-day management, optimisation, and renewal.
3. Act as the primary owner of race performance, ensuring races are optimised on an ongoing basis, refining positioning,
messaging, and execution to drive runner engagement and commercial impact.
4. Work closely with local, in-market contacts to support localisation and deepen understanding of regional race calendars,
runner behaviour, and competitive landscapes.
3. Managing, scaling, and supporting the wider partnerships function
1. Set clear priorities, processes, and ways of working to ensure the race partnership function operates efficiently and
delivers consistently high-quality outcomes.
2. Support the wider Brand Partnerships team on an ad-hoc basis, particularly around major race weekends — helping bring
partnerships to life through on-the-ground activations, content, and experiences.
3. Support additional areas within the Partnerships team (e.g. B2B initiatives), contributing to new channel testing,
experimentation, and scaling high-potential opportunities.
4. As part of a small, fast-moving team, occasionally jump in to support other areas of the business where needed, including
working with ambassadors, events, or contributing to product initiatives where partnerships play a role.
