Fractional Business Development & Partnerships Lead – GenAI & New Product Development

Location: Perth, Australia

We are expanding our partnerships network and looking for a fractional sales consultant or Business Development & Partnerships Lead based in or near Bentonville, Arkansas.

At THE 8800, we build AI-native products and platforms for three distinct audiences:

BUILD WITH US — enterprises and scale-ups transforming their technology or building new AI products.
LAUNCH WITH US — domain experts and founders building vertical AI companies from the ground up.
GROW WITH US — VC firms, PE funds, and venture studios who need a reliable technology partner for portfolio companies.

If your network touches any of these — this opportunity is worth reading.
