Partnership Manager - Full Time - DAYBREAKER

Daybreaker Partnership Manager And Executive Assistant To Co-Founder

Daybreaker is a Brooklyn-based social enterprise and morning dance and wellness movement in 31 cities around the world with a community of 500K+ and growing. Our bread and butter are weekday morning events that start with a one hour yoga + fitness experience followed by a 2-hour dance party all before going to work. We are a substance-free community and are reimagining how humans socialize (in the morning / without alcohol or drugs). We are experience designers and community builders with a results-oriented management team that is set on building a lasting movement that solves a major societal problem: loneliness and isolation. Ultimately, our goal is to invite more play, more community, and more belonging.
This is a paid full-time role. You'll report directly to the Daybreaker leaders, working closely with a savvy, tight-knit, creative, and energetic team at our office in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NYC.
This is a role where you'll be wearing many hats and no two days are the same. You have to be hungry and driven and excited to be a part of a fast paced, hard working early morning startup!
