Overview
Head of Landlord Partnerships Jobs in New York, NY at SharedEasy
Title: Head of Landlord Partnerships
Company: SharedEasy
Location: New York, NY
The mission
SharedEasy has spent six years building one of New York's most respected co-living and residential hospitality portfolios. We're now at the moment that defines the next decade: disciplined, repeatable growth. We're hiring one person to lead it.
You won't be buying buildings. You'll be signing landlords. Our model is simple and proven over six years: we partner with property owners, operate co-living in their buildings, and everybody wins. You inherit that proven model – our playbooks, our partnership docs, our existing landlord relationships, and direct founder support. What you build is the new deal flow: walking into the market, opening doors with landlords and owners who've never heard of us, pitching them on the partnership, and getting buildings signed – month after month. You own each partnership end to end: sourcing the owner, pitching the model, negotiating the terms, signing the deal, and handing it to operations live.
And you won't stop at our core market. A major part of this seat is building new partnership channels and opening new markets beyond our current footprint – turning SharedEasy's model into a growth engine that reaches well past where we operate today.
This is the seat where a proven landlord-deal closer steps up to own the entire growth engine — with the founder at your side and your income tracking every deal you sign. If you're energized by a proven model, a hard number, and the job of selling that model to a room full of skeptical landlords — keep reading. If you need warm leads handed to you, this isn't your seat.
The Offer
We publish our numbers because we want you to know exactly what you're signing up for:
- Base salary: $72,000/year ($6,000/month), guaranteed. Modest by design.
- Uncapped performance bonus, paid monthly, tied directly to the partnerships you sign — per-bed activation bonuses on every deal, with an accelerator that pays more as your volume climbs, plus separate bonuses for opening new cities and signing new partnership channels.
- At target, total year-one compensation lands in the $130,000–$140,000 range. Above target, there is no ceiling. The structure deliberately rewards our best deal economics most – the better the deal you sign, the more you earn per bed.
- Title, autonomy, and a direct line to the founder: you are the growth engine, not a cog in one.
What Success Looks Like
In your first year, a high performer in this role will:
- Build your own pipeline of new landlords — originating fresh owner relationships through your own cold outreach, door-knocking, and hustle, not inbound or referrals. You inherit our proven model, playbooks, partnership docs, and existing landlord relationships; what you build is the new deal flow on top of that foundation.
- Personally sign new property partnerships that expand our portfolio, owning every deal from first cold contact to signed agreement to operational handoff.
- Pitch the co-living partnership model persuasively to landlords and owners – making the case for why partnering with us beats their status quo.
- Structure partnerships that protect our economics — understanding the deal math well enough that the partnerships you sign actually work, and the ones that don't never get signed.
- Build new partnership channels and open new markets beyond our core footprint – extending the model into new geographies and partner types from scratch.
- Build your own leverage with AI — you won't just use the tools, you'll architect your own AI-driven workflows for sourcing, outreach, and market research. We're an AI-native company; this seat is expected to out-produce traditional dealmakers because of how it works, not just how hard it works.
Who this seat is built for
You're probably a Growth Director, Partnerships Manager, Acquisitions Manager, or Leasing/Development Manager at a multi-unit operator today — coworking or flex workspace, co-living or flexible living, hospitality, or a restaurant / retail / fitness chain — where you personally cold-source property owners and sign landlord agreements: management agreements, revenue-share partnerships, leases, operator deals. You've done the motion deal after deal. Now you're ready to own the whole growth engine instead of a territory — and to be paid on everything you sign.
Also a strong fit: real estate brokers with a landlord-facing book who are tired of one-off commissions and want recurring skin in a portfolio; and marketplace / platform business developers who've recruited supply-side partners onto a platform and opened new markets from zero.
What matters is the motion and the volume of signings — you found the owner, you made the pitch, you got it signed — not the dollar size of any one deal.
What you bring
- A real track record of personally originating and signing deals with property owners or landlords — leases, partnerships, space deals, or operator agreements where you found the owner and you got it signed.
- The temperament of a hunter who's energized by originating new owner relationships — comfortable starting cold, owning a number, and carrying it.
- The ability to pitch and negotiate with owners and hold your own across the table, with full professional command of English.
- Enough commercial sense to structure a partnership on its economics — and to walk away from a bad one.
- An entrepreneurial operator's instinct — you thrive with autonomy and no script.
- Based in NYC.
Bonus points for: an active network of landlords, developers, and real estate investors you can call this month; a genuine builder's relationship with AI; experience opening a new market; and a feel for co-living or hospitality-driven residential models.
Why take this seat
You'll report directly to the founder, operate with real autonomy, and have a direct, visible hand on the company's growth. The portfolio you build is the company's next chapter, and your income tracks it, deal by deal, with no cap.
