OtherPartnerships Lead

bunch is building the backbone of private markets. We are enabling next-gen fund operations with one integrated system that combines secure data infrastructure, AI-powered workflows and expert fund services. If you value ownership, growth through real responsibility, and working with a thoughtful, ambitious team, this role might be for you.

As Partnerships Lead at bunch, you will own the partnership function across our core markets: the partners who send us clients, and the specialist providers who help us service those mandates end-to-end.

Fund administration is a partnership-driven business. The right referral and channel partners create qualified pipeline at scale. The right provider network ensures we can support fund managers across markets without capability gaps. This role brings both together.

You will build the channel that brings clients in and the provider network that lets us keep them. This is a revenue-generating role with direct impact on ARR, and it is also a critical operational role: making sure bunch can service any fund mandate in our markets with confidence, quality, and speed.

You will:

Own the partnership programme across bunch’s core markets — UK, Germany, and Luxembourg — keeping a consistent framework while adapting activation to local market dynamics and regulatory realities

Structure and maintain relationships with regulated and specialist providers, including depositaries, AML officers, ManCos, auditors, and onboarding, compliance, accounting, and tax specialists

Partner with Commercial and Marketing on joint go-to-market initiatives, including co-hosted events, co-authored content, and partner-facilitated introductions

Represent bunch at key industry events and forums across our markets; regular travel is expected

Experience building something from scratch, such as a partner programme, new market, or commercial channel

Comfortable operating with ambiguity, creating structure as you go, and owning a measurable commercial outcome

Commercially sharp: you understand how referral and delivery partnerships work, what makes each valuable, and how to structure simple agreements that work for both sides

Able to hold senior conversations with partners at law firms, depositaries, regulated providers, and professional services firms

Strong cross-functional partner to Commercial, Marketing, Operations, and leadership teams

Organised and systems-oriented, with the ability to build tracking, reporting, and process while moving fast

Fluent in the language of private markets, including fund structures, LP/GP dynamics, and the regulatory environment across the UK and Europe

Familiar with the role of depositaries, ManCos, AML officers, and other regulated or specialist providers in fund operations

Existing relationships in the UK and/or European VC/PE ecosystem — such as law firms, accountancy practices, placement agents, banks, or regulated providers — that give you a running start

Willing and able to travel regularly across bunch’s markets

Hungry to own and scale an important function in a fast-growing company

bunch is building the operating infrastructure for the next generation of private markets. We combine AI-powered automation with deep regulatory expertise to replace fragmented spreadsheets and manual processes with one integrated platform across the fund lifecycle, purpose-built for private markets heading toward $32 trillion in Assets Under Management.

We've 4x our ARR in 2025, crossed 150 fund managers and 12,000 LPs on the platform, and just closed our $35M Series B in May 2026. We're looking for ambitious people who want real ownership of hard problems, and who care about building infrastructure that actually matters to the people using it.
