Business Development Manager

Dream Opportunity

About Dream Opportunity

Dream Opportunity connects under-resourced students to career-defining experiences with companies like JPMorgan Chase, AT&T, EY, and Warner Bros. Discovery.

We create direct access to internships, mentorship, networking, and professional development opportunities that change students’ career trajectories and long-term economic outcomes.

We are growing quickly and looking for a highly driven Corporate Partnerships Manager to help expand our partnerships across corporate, foundation, and government sectors.

The Role

As a Corporate Partnerships Manager, you will work directly with our CEO and Founder, who has secured over $6 million in corporate revenue, to identify, develop, and close new partnerships that fund access and opportunities for students globally.

This is a high-ownership, commission-driven role with a clear path to leadership and promotion opportunities within Dream Opportunity.

Top performers may be promoted into senior partnership leadership positions with expanded ownership of Fortune 500 relationships and strategic initiatives.

Compensation Structure

5% Commission $25,000 $1,000,000 Goal ★ $90,000 $75,000 $2,000,000 $140,000

There is no commission cap.

Your Support System

While this role requires independent partnership development and revenue generation, Dream Opportunity provides the tools, credibility, and support to help you succeed:

  • Direct access to the CEO and Founder for major meetings and high-value deals
  • Internal Graphic Design Team to create professional decks and partnership proposals
  • Proven marketing collateral, impact data, photos, and videos from existing Fortune 500 programming
  • Live corporate events where prospects can experience our programming first-hand
  • International market flexibility across the USA, UK, Canada, India, Philippines, Mexico, UAE, and Singapore

You are not required to source partnerships across every market. Candidates may focus on the regions where they already have strong networks and experience.

Key Responsibilities

Partnership Development

  • Identify and pursue new partnerships across Fortune 500 CSR departments, foundations, and government programs
  • Build company research profiles including CSR priorities, DEI initiatives, and key decision-makers
  • Manage the full partnership pipeline in Monday.com from first outreach through signed agreement
  • Execute personalized outbound outreach campaigns to generate and close new partnership opportunities

Client Communication & Relationship Management

  • Draft and manage professional client-facing communication including proposals, follow-ups, and partnership materials
  • Deliver quarterly impact reports and partner communications
  • Maintain proactive partner relationships and identify opportunities for renewals or expanded partnerships
  • Build long-term relationships through thoughtful, high-touch communication

Events & Partnership Execution

  • Coordinate in-person events within corporate offices, conferences, and trade shows
  • Manage event logistics including timelines, vendors, attendee coordination, and day-of operations
  • Create run-of-show documents and briefing materials
  • Deliver post-event recaps, impact summaries, and partner follow-up materials

Operations & Revenue Tracking

  • Maintain accurate updates and task management within Monday.com
  • Monitor partnership progress and communicate risks against revenue targets
  • Track invoicing, accounts receivable, and outstanding payments

Qualifications

Required

  • 7+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, sales, fundraising, communications, or client-facing roles
  • Exceptional written communication skills with the ability to produce polished proposals, emails, and briefing documents
  • Strong organizational and project management abilities
  • Self-starter mindset with the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment
  • Professionalism and confidence when communicating with executives and external stakeholders
  • Genuine alignment with Dream Opportunity’s mission and impact

Preferred

  • Degree in Business, Communications, Public Policy, Marketing, or a related field
  • Experience with Monday.com, Google Workspace, Canva, and Slack
  • Background in non-profit, CSR, education, workforce development, social impact, or partnership-driven organizations

Why This Role Matters

Every partnership secured helps place a student into rooms, networks, and career opportunities they may never have otherwise accessed.

This role offers:

  • Direct visibility into organizational growth
  • Significant ownership and responsibility
  • Strong earning potential
  • A mission-driven environment with measurable impact
  • Clear opportunities for advancement and leadership
