As we continue to expand globally, we are seeking an experienced Partnerships & Business Development Manager to help accelerate growth through strategic partnerships and high-value industry relationships.

* Monitor partner performance and optimize commercial outcomes.
* Represent Ouinex at industry events, conferences, webinars, and networking opportunities.
* Collaborate closely with marketing, operations, and management teams to maximize partner success.
Requirements
* Minimum 5 years of experience in business development, partnerships, affiliate management, institutional sales, or broker/exchange growth.
* Proven track record of generating trading volume for a crypto exchange, FX/CFD broker, prop firm, fintech platform, or similar business.

* Demonstrable experience onboarding and managing revenue-generating partners.
* Strong negotiation and relationship management skills.
* Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently.
* Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
Highly Valued Experience
* Crypto exchange experience.
* FX or CFD brokerage experience.
* Experience managing affiliate or IB programs.
* Existing relationships with high-volume trading communities.
* Experience working with professional traders, money managers, and introducing brokers.
* Additional languages are a plus.

Within the first 90 days:
* A qualified pipeline of strategic partnership opportunities established.
* Initial high-value partners onboarded and active.
