Property Partnerships AE

Story Terrace Inc., Chicago, IL, United States


The Opportunity We’re expanding across North America and a big part of that comes down to getting the right property partners in place. Every new university we launch needs supply. Good supply. That’s what this role is focused on.

Why This Role Is Interesting There isn’t a neat, finished playbook here. A lot of what you’ll be doing is figuring things out as we go. New markets, new operators, different dynamics in each city.

You’ll have the space to approach things in your own way, as long as you’re moving deals forward. The work also matters. The partners you bring on aren’t just numbers, they directly impact whether a market works or not.

If you enjoy being close to deals and having real ownership, without moving into management, this tends to suit.

What You’ll Own

Building your own pipeline into property operators across new university markets

Running deals end to end, from first outreach through to close

Speaking with a mix of people, from on-site teams through to senior decision makers

Signing partners that actually make a difference to how well a market launches

Working with leadership on where to focus and which accounts matter most

Handling more involved deals, including commercial terms and longer agreements

Feeding back what you’re seeing in the market so we can improve how we approach things

Working closely with GTM, marketing and customer teams to make sure partners land well

What Good Looks Like In You

You’ve sold into property, student housing, real estate or something similar in the US or Canada

You’re used to owning the full deal, not just one part of it

You’re comfortable keeping momentum in deals with multiple stakeholders involved

You’re commercially aware and can handle negotiation without overcomplicating things

You’re proactive when it comes to building pipeline

You communicate clearly and can build trust with different types of people

You’re comfortable when things aren’t fully defined and can work things out as you go

This Role Is Not For You If

You’re looking to move into management in the short term

You prefer a role where everything is already mapped out

You rely heavily on inbound and existing pipeline

You’d rather focus on one part of the sales cycle than own the full thing
