Company Overview
Apex Service Partners (the “Company”) is the #1 home services company in the country by revenue and serves over 25,000 homeowners daily. Founded in 2019, Apex has partnered with world-class service providers to create an industry leading national platform of HVAC, Plumbing, and Electric companies that serve single-family residential customers in 45 states. Apex has grown to over 180 locations with 12,000+ team members and $3+ billion in annual revenue. And we are just getting started. The Company has been built through high-frequency M&A and organic growth. Apex has completed 325+ transactions since its inception and is the most active and prolific acquirer in the industry. This high-frequency M&A strategy necessitates a best-in-class Partnership Development team. Despite being the largest player in this incredible industry, Apex has less than 2% market share, and ~85% of the market is still fragmented. The Company is backed by several name brand investors with the majority owned by Alpine Investors, a People-first private equity firm that specializes in buy and build strategies in fragmented, service-based industries.

Partnerships Associate Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a partnerships associate in Texas?
The most direct path is a bachelor's degree in business, marketing, or communications followed by experience in an adjacent role such as account coordinator, sales associate, or marketing analyst. Partnerships associate is not a licensed or state-regulated profession in Texas, so there is no Texas licensing board or exam. Many Texas employers prefer candidates who can demonstrate hands-on relationship management, CRM proficiency, and a record of cross-functional collaboration, often gained through internships or entry-level commercial roles.
Which companies hire partnerships associates in Texas?
Employers hiring partnerships associates in Texas right now include Alvarez & Marsal, Goldman Sachs, and Baker Hughes Company, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Texas's concentration of technology headquarters, large retailers, and healthcare systems means demand comes from a wide range of industries rather than a single sector.
Which Texas cities have the most partnerships associate jobs?
Dallas, Houston, and Austin have the most partnerships associate openings in Texas. Austin's dense technology and SaaS company base drives much of the volume there, while Dallas draws demand from corporate headquarters in financial services and media, and Houston's energy, healthcare, and logistics sectors generate consistent openings for partnership-focused commercial roles.
Are there remote partnerships associate jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than most fields. Partnerships associate is largely a desk-based, relationship-management role conducted over video, email, and CRM tools, which makes it well suited to remote and hybrid arrangements. About 25% of partnerships associate openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how widely distributed partner networks have become. The most remote-compatible tasks include partner onboarding, co-marketing coordination, and pipeline reporting.
How can I get hired as a partnerships associate in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving laterally from a customer-facing or marketing support role, such as sales development representative, marketing coordinator, or account specialist, into a junior partnerships or alliances position. Large Texas employers in technology, retail, and healthcare regularly hire associate-level candidates without direct partnerships experience if they can demonstrate CRM use and relationship management. Building a portfolio of co-marketing projects, affiliate campaigns, or vendor coordination work, even from internships, strengthens an application considerably.
Where can I find and apply to partnerships associate jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to partnerships associate jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings updated regularly. Search the listings, find roles that match your background and location, and apply directly to the employers posting them.
