Head of Partnerships, Spain

Join to apply for the Head of Partnerships, Spain role at Substack

Location : Madrid (remote working)

Substack is building a new global economic engine for culture, giving the most creative and interesting people on the internet the power of their own publishing platform. Substack’s model—based on direct subscriptions—has fueled an explosion of independent publishing, empowering creators with economic autonomy, creative ownership, and a direct connection to their most engaged audiences.

We’re hiring a Head of Partnerships for Spain to lead and scale the Spanish Substack business. Working alongside our Head of Europe, you’ll be responsible for building awareness of the Substack brand in Spain, onboarding the country’s most exciting independent talent, as well as helping to tell the Substack story to creators and consumers across the country.

This is a pivotal role for an exceptional leader who has a strong track record of business growth as well as nurturing creative talent across all mediums. You’ll also be a strategic thinker who is as comfortable working with big political names as you are smaller less well known creators. Knowledge of events and being comfortable speaking publicly is a bonus.

What You’ll Do

• With the help of Substack’s Head of Europe you’ll develop and execute a strategy for onboarding influential creators, helping them build successful subscription businesses and vibrant communities on Substack.
• Own key growth metrics around creator acquisition, retention, revenue, and engagement—aligning impact with Substack’s broader business goals.
• Build and deepen relationships with creators, talent managers, studios, agencies, tastemakers to the press to expand Substack’s presence in the cultural ecosystem.
• Champion Spanish creators internally by synthesizing their needs, motivations, and ambitions into product, support, and partnership opportunities.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Data, Marketing, and Communications to evolve the Spanish creator experience and improve outreach and feature adoption.
• Represent Substack externally—on stage, in the press, and in key industry rooms—positioning the company as the premier platform for independent creative work.
• Stay ahead of creator economy trends, emerging formats, and shifting audience behaviors to keep Substack on the leading edge in Spain.
