About the role
The Role FrankieOne is an Australian regtech company that makes it easier for financial services businesses to onboard and monitor customers safely and compliantly. Our single API connects to more than 350 identity, KYC/KYB, AML, and fraud data sources across APAC and beyond, removing the complexity of managing dozens of vendor integrations and allowing our customers to focus on building great products. We work with banks, fintechs, lenders, gaming operators, and government agencies that require fast, reliable, and compliant identity infrastructure. The Partnerships team sits within the broader Go-to-Market (GTM) organisation and manages both sell-side reseller relationships and buy-side supplier partnerships.

You will work closely with Product and Technical Operations to understand capability
requirements, partner with GTM to support data coverage discussions during sales cycles, and collaborate with the Vendor Contracts team on commercial terms and renewals.

In this role, you will own the identification, acquisition, onboarding, and ongoing management of data and technology suppliers across identity verification, KYC/KYB, AML screening, fraud prevention, and device intelligence. You will monitor coverage gaps, evaluate emerging providers, negotiate commercial agreements, and ensure our supplier portfolio evolves alongside our product roadmap and market expansion plans. Your Ticket to Success Be an advocate for FrankieOne, our supplier ecosystem, and the customers who rely on us to provide the right data at the right price. Develop deep knowledge of our supplier landscape, including capabilities, commercial models, performance metrics, and market alternatives.
