As a Consumer Fintech Partner Manager at Gusto, you’ll own, manage, and grow the strategic fintech partnerships that power Gusto’s consumer financial products for both small businesses and the Members who are paid through Gusto. You’ll serve as the primary relationship owner for key partners, working cross-functionally with product, engineering, finance, legal, operations, and corporate development to ensure partnerships are healthy, scalable, and aligned with Gusto’s long-term strategy.
In this role, you’ll identify opportunities to deepen and expand partnerships through new products, features, and use cases, while proactively surfacing gaps in Gusto’s fintech ecosystem and helping shape solutions. You’ll leverage partner performance data, customer and Member insights, and market trends to inform roadmap priorities and partnership strategy.

Product Partnerships is a small team embedded within Gusto’s Corporate Development organization. We manage the launch, performance, and growth of strategic product partnerships, while Corporate Development also leads M&A and develops new partnership opportunities.
