Aavia is on a mission to become the category-defining trusted hormone health hub for Gen Z and beyond. Our daily hormone health app and organically grown global community are loved and trusted by hundreds of thousands of members. As a female-founded, Mayo Clinic-backed health technology company, we harness 67M+ longitudinal data points to provide truly personalized insights, from mood to skin, sleep and more, throughout the entire cycle. Every feature we develop is grounded in science, data, and the lived realities of our community. We're now searching for our first Head of Strategic Partnerships, a force multiplier ready to build the gold standard in how brands can partner with Aavia to transform women’s health.

Mission-aligned partnerships are central to our vision and enable Aavia to:

• Deepen member impact: Deliver timely, personalized education and product or service recommendations that matter most to our members and their health needs

• Empower brands: Help relevant companies better understand and care for Gen Z through authentic connection and data-driven insights based on our experience and/or direct member advisory

• Accelerate Growth: Our team has doubled partnership-driven revenue quarter over quarter, building relationships with respected organizations like Labcorp, Grüns, Nurx, and many others.

As our first Head of Strategic Partnerships, you will play a critical role in scaling Aavia’s partnerships program, pioneer a new approach to women’s health partnerships, and shape the future of a company at the frontier of health innovation. You will own, design, and scale every aspect of our partnerships strategy, setting best practices, closing strategic deals, and paving the way for a future team. While you will work closely with the CEO, this is a high-autonomy, high-impact role perfect for a leader who wants to leave a lasting mark on women’s health.

This role is part-time contract-to-hire with a base + commission + equity compensation model, with a clear path to a full-time senior leadership role within six months based on performance and milestones.

 

Your Impact

• Increase the value of Aavia to our members by delivering strategic, mission-aligned partnerships based on their needs

• Unlock new revenue with category-defining partnerships in health, wellness, nutrition, and beyond

• Architect Aavia’s partnerships engine by designing strategies and playbooks from scratch, not just executing someone else’s plan

• Directly influence product direction, partner with the CEO daily, and amplify Aavia’s reach

 

You will be perfect for this role if you:

• Have 3–7 years of proven success driving revenue through business development, sales, or partnerships in high-growth environments

• Are a natural connector and confident communicator, who thrives on ambitious goals

• Bring a track record of building 0→1 programs

• Move fast, love autonomy, and are obsessed with impact and results

• Enjoy analyzing both quantitative and qualitative data to identify opportunities

• Can synthesize learnings into scalable, repeatable systems

• Are a strategic thinker and creative deal maker, recommending specific or creative new deal structures based on client’s goals

Bonus:

• Have experience in women’s health, DTC brands, or digital health tech

• Enjoy owning an end-to-end process: prospecting, pitching, negotiating, closing, and scaling relationships

 

As the Head of Strategic Partnerships, you will be someone who we can count on to:

own :

• Outbound prospecting, cold outreach, and follow-up to build an end-to-end pipeline of revenue-generating partners

• CRM hygiene and pipeline tracking (we currently use HubSpot) to keep outreach, follow-ups, and performance organized

• Reporting on partnership pipeline progress, deal performance, and key insights that drive our broader strategy

• A scalable, repeatable partnerships playbook to drive consistent growth and set up future hires for success

• BONUS: End-to-end deal flow, from identifying leads to pitching, negotiating, and closing; work hand-in-hand with the CEO to maximize contract value and length

teach :

• Partnership trends, best practices, and pain points in the women’s health, wellness, and consumer health industries

• The art of high-converting messaging: how to communicate Aavia’s story and unique value proposition in a compelling, outcomes-driven way

learn :

• Hormone Health 101

• The wants and needs of the Aavia community through quantitative and qualitative data

• Our existing partner ecosystem, product offerings, and brand positioning

• What motivates our partners to align our value with their goals

• Everything about Aavia’s products, ecosystem, and strategic vision.

improve :

• Outreach to booking conversion by testing and honing in on outreach tactics, outbound messaging, and sales collateral (with Head of Design)

• How we qualify and prioritize partners to focus on high-impact opportunities

• Internal systems and processes such as CRM set-up

• Target Business Profile based on learnings

• Cross-functional collaboration to deliver value to partners
