Partner Manager
(Part-Time, Project-Based)
⭐ Shape the future of the experience market in the UAE and bring bold ideas to life
-
Build something that truly matters. Lead visible, high-impact partner projects from idea to execution, with real autonomy and the chance to see your work directly support inspiring local businesses across the UAE.
-
Flexible, part-time role designed for real life. A project-based position requiring around 10 to 15 hours per week (with potential to grow to FT during 2026), primarily work from home, with occasional in-person meetings in Dubai or Sharjah.

Ideal for experienced talent seeking meaningful flexibility. Perfect for mums returning to work after maternity leave, professionals in between corporate roles, or freelancers who want longer-term projects, ownership, and the satisfaction of creating lasting impact rather than short-term gigs.
