If you’re excited by big challenges, global impact, and the chance to grow fast with a world-class team, ARQ is the place to do it.

Who we’re looking for

We’re hiring a Growth Manager to own and scale ARQ's performance-based partnerships channel in Brazil. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution: you’ll identify and prioritize partnership opportunities, test their economics, prospect, negotiate and launch deals, and scale the channels that perform.

This is an opportunity for a strategic business developer or a top-performing consultant ready to launch a channel from scratch and take ownership from day one.

What You’ll Do

• Develop the channel strategy: Map the Brazilian market, identify promising partner segments, assess their potential, and determine where ARQ should focus.

• Build and test commercial theses: Develop business cases, partnership structures, unit economics, and pilot plans for new acquisition channels.

• Originate and close partnerships: Build a pipeline, approach decision-makers, negotiate CPA and revenue-share agreements, and close deals.

• Launch and scale: Coordinate partner onboarding, remove launch blockers, and get new partners generating activated users quickly.

• Optimize performance: Analyze conversion, CAC, volume and contribution by partner; stop weak experiments and scale the strongest ones.

• Own the partner lifecycle: Maintain senior relationships, solve operational problems, manage incentives and continue expanding productive partnerships.

• Execute cross-functionally: Work with Product, Legal, Finance and Operations to launch partnerships quickly and compliantly.

What you’ll need to succeed

1. High motivation, bias to action and goal orientation: You’re energized by ambitious targets and comfortable being measured on the volume you close and activate.

2. Agency and problem-solving: You independently identify opportunities, remove obstacles and turn ideas into results.

3. Comfort with ambiguity and full ownership: You can create structure where none exists, set priorities and move forward without waiting for a detailed playbook.

4. Strong analytical and commercial judgment: You can evaluate opportunities, understand partner economics and use data to decide what to test, stop or scale.

5. Relevant experience through one of two paths:

• Experience in business development or affiliate programs, at a high-growth startup; or

• A strong strategy-consulting background with the motivation to transition into a hands-on business development role and own outcomes end to end.

1. Fluency in Portuguese and English.

It will be a strong advantage if you have experience in fintech or an existing network within Brazil’s financial-services or creator economy.
