🚀 Our story

Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world towards a sustainable future where where anyone can fix anything.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise cutting-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.

We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.

Our investors in Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.), Square Peg, Octopus Ventures, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).

We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

🖍️ This role

As Partly’s Network Manager, NZ Supply, you’ll be the hands-on operator behind our New Zealand supply network. You’ll be the single point of accountability for selection, live inventory, and supplier performance across the platform.

Your mission: make sure repairers can find the part they need, see accurate availability, and trust the supplier on the other side. More than this, we want to maximise choice across supplier channels and cost. You’ll do that by getting deep in the data, building tight feedback loops with suppliers, and partnering with Product and Engineering to turn insight into action.

This isn’t a back-office supply chain role, and it isn’t purely strategy. It’s a commercial, analytical and operational role for someone energised by the detail: running the numbers, pulling the levers, and being the person who knows the network better than anyone else in the building.

💻 What will you do

Drive selection, availability and supplier performance

• Own the day-to-day health of the supply network: selection breadth, live inventory accuracy, and fulfilment reliability.

• Use Partly’s supplier performance features and data to identify where each supplier is under-performing, and build the playbook to address it.

• Set the priorities: where to add coverage, where to expand integrations, where to push for better pricing and which suppliers to recruit.

Lead with data, hands-on

• Live in the dashboards. Build new ones where they don’t exist.

• Produce the insights that inform supplier conversations, internal trade-offs, and roadmap prioritisation, both internal (for leadership and Product) and external (for suppliers themselves).

• Turn signals into action: spot a coverage gap, an availability dip, or a slipping supplier, and drive the response.

Be the supplier advocate

• Synthesise supplier needs, pain points, and feedback into a clear point of view that lands internally.

• Represent suppliers in product, engineering, and operational decisions, making sure their reality shapes what we build and how we operate.

• Build trust through consistency: be the person suppliers know, call, and rely on.

Partner cross-functionally

• Work closely with Sales (to prioritise new supplier acquisition), Solutions Engineering (to scope live inventory integrations), Customer Success (to drive supplier engagement on the Partly experience), and Account Management (for repairer-side signal).

• Visit suppliers onsite when it matters. Real relationships still get built in workshops and yards.

🥷 Your skills

• Analytical and commercial: You think in numbers and trade-offs. You can build a model, defend a recommendation, and translate data into a commercial outcome.

• Hands-on operator: Comfortable in the weeds. You pull the data yourself, write the SQL or the pivot, run the supplier review, and fix the issue. You don’t wait for someone else to produce the dashboard.

• Strong communicator and influencer: You can sit with a supplier, a Product Manager, and a senior leader in the same week and earn credibility with each. Calm, clear, well-prepared.

• Customer empathy, supply-side: You take the time to understand suppliers’ businesses (how they make money, what frustrates them, what they need from us) and translate that into clear internal advocacy.

• Ownership mindset: Proactive, decisive, and comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You don’t wait to be told.

• Tech-savvy: Fluent with the tools that move the work (BI/analytics, CRMs, integration concepts). You can hold a credible conversation with engineering when you need to.

• Bonus: Exposure to marketplaces, supplier networks, automotive parts, or B2B SaaS where the supply side matters. Not required; sharp generalists welcome.

  Please note: if you don't have all the skills/experience listed above but believe you could be outstanding in this role, please still consider applying. Many folks, especially those from underrepresented or marginalised groups, often count themselves out. Please allow us to learn more about you and why you're exceptional!
