Today, over 20,000 businesses—including Samsung, Gymshark, Mejuri, Dr. Squatch, and Alo Yoga—rely on AfterShip to turn every post-purchase moment into an opportunity to build trust, reduce costs, and drive repeat purchases.
Built for a global market from day one, AfterShip operates with an engineering-driven, internationally distributed team. The company employs more than 450 people across 8 offices, spanning North America, Europe, and Asia, and representing over 20 cities worldwide.
A note from the hiring team
We are hiring a corporate development leader who can help us shape how AfterShip grows.
This role sits at the intersection of strategy, product, revenue, and ecosystem. You will work on the questions that don't have clear answers: which partnerships are worth pursuing, where we can unlock step-function growth, and which deals actually change our trajectory versus distract us.
If you're looking to manage a broad portfolio of partners, run co-marketing programs, or scale an existing playbook, this is not it.
If you want to identify, structure, and execute the few strategic moves that matter — and build the function that makes that possible — keep reading.
The mission
Help AfterShip make smarter strategic bets — and turn them into reality.
You will partner closely with the Chief Strategy Officer and leadership team to identify high-impact opportunities across platforms, marketplaces, logistics, and technology ecosystems.
Your job is not just to close deals. It is to define where we should play, how we win, and ensure we follow through.
What success looks like
You are doing well in this role if the company is consistently focused on the few partnerships and initiatives that materially impact growth, and if you help navigate complex opportunities that don't have a clear playbook.
Deals move forward because you create clarity, alignment, and momentum. Leadership trusts your judgment on where to invest, where to push, and where to walk away. Partnerships translate into real outcomes — revenue, distribution, or ecosystem advantage — not just announcements.
We develop a clear, repeatable way of evaluating and executing strategic opportunities, and corporate development becomes a trusted, high-leverage function, not a reactive one.
What you will own
- You will define where we should focus our efforts across partnerships, strategic deals, and adjacent opportunities. This includes identifying where we can unlock disproportionate impact and where we should not spend time.
- You will build and manage a focused pipeline of high-impact opportunities across platforms, marketplaces, logistics, and technology ecosystems, turning ambiguous ideas into clear opportunities with defined upside, risks, and execution paths.
- You will own the full deal lifecycle from origination through negotiation, closing, and launch. This includes leading complex, high-stakes discussions with senior external stakeholders and structuring deals that create meaningful leverage for the business.
- You will work across Product, Revenue, Operations, Finance, Legal, and leadership teams to align priorities and drive execution, ensuring initiatives move forward even when the path is not linear.
- You will define how opportunities are evaluated, prioritized, and tracked, establishing simple and effective ways to drive accountability and measure impact.
- You will also lay the foundation for corporate development at AfterShip, and over time take on and develop a small team as the function scales.
Who you are
- You are a strategic operator who thinks in outcomes, not steps. You are comfortable navigating from A to F rather than following a linear path.
- You are a strong decision framer who can take ambiguous, complex situations and turn them into clear options, trade-offs, and a point of view.
- You are commercially sharp and understand how deals create value, whether through revenue, distribution, or strategic positioning.
- You operate with calm and composure in high-stakes, multi-stakeholder environments, exercising sound judgment and discretion.
- You are a player-coach — hands-on when needed, but able to step back and define direction and build systems.
- You are a trusted partner who builds credibility with leadership and cross-functional teams, and knows when to push, when to listen, and how to move things forward.
What we are looking for
- You bring 10 - 15+ years of experience in corporate development, strategic partnerships, enterprise sales, or related fields, with a proven track record of leading and closing complex, high-value deals with large US enterprises.
- You have experience operating at both strategic and execution levels, from shaping opportunities to closing them, and are comfortable managing multi-stakeholder, high-stakes environments.
- You have strong negotiation skills, experience in fast-moving, technology-driven environments, and ideally familiarity with platforms, marketplaces, logistics, or broader technology ecosystems.
- You are comfortable working across global teams and time zones.
This role is not for you if
- You prefer structured environments with clear playbooks and defined processes.
- You are primarily motivated by managing a large portfolio of partners rather than driving a small number of high-impact initiatives.
- You focus more on launching partnerships than on their long-term impact.
- You need perfect information before making decisions, or are uncomfortable navigating ambiguity and pushing on strategic trade-offs.
- You tend to overcomplicate simple questions rather than driving clarity and action.
At AfterShip, we know great talent doesn't always fit every requirement. If you're passionate about our mission and believe you can make an impact, we encourage you to apply.

- Thrive & Grow: There's no ceiling to what you can achieve or learn here. We're committed to empowering your career while advancing together as a company.

Tips for Your Remote Corporate Development Analyst Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote corporate development analyst openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly without sifting through unfiltered postings. Early applications on competitive remote roles have a meaningful advantage.
Show async communication in your application
Remote corporate development employers screen for written clarity before the first interview. Your cover letter and any submitted work samples should demonstrate that you can frame a deal rationale or analysis finding concisely in writing, the way you would in a remote team Slack thread or deal memo.
Build a deal or analysis work sample
A completed financial model, M&A case study, or market sizing analysis shared as a PDF or spreadsheet gives remote hiring teams something concrete to evaluate. Remote employers can't observe you in an office, so a polished artifact substitutes for the credibility built through in-person interaction.
Target distributed teams in your outreach
Remote-first technology companies and private equity-backed businesses with lean corporate development functions hire remotely as a default, not an exception. Focusing your search on organizations already structured around distributed teams means the role is designed for remote work, not retrofitted.
Prepare for remote technical interview rounds
Remote corporate development interviews often include a live modeling test or take-home case delivered and reviewed over video. Practice walking through a DCF or LBO build while narrating your logic aloud, since remote interviewers assess both the output and your ability to explain decisions without a whiteboard.
Remote Corporate Development Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote corporate development analyst job?
Remote corporate development analyst roles go to candidates who can demonstrate rigorous financial modeling, strategic analysis, and clear written communication without in-person oversight. Remote employers screen for self-direction, comfort with async collaboration tools like Slack and Notion, and the ability to manage deal pipeline and diligence workstreams independently. A polished work sample, such as a transaction model or market sizing analysis, gives you a concrete edge over candidates who rely on soft claims.
Which companies hire remote corporate development analysts?
Remote corporate development analyst roles are posted by Cardinal Health, Carhartt, and AfterShip and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Remote-first technology companies, distributed financial services firms, and growth-stage businesses with lean corporate development teams are among the most consistent hirers of this role remotely.
Can you get a remote corporate development analyst job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level corporate development analyst roles are harder to land because employers expect you to run analysis and communicate findings independently from day one. Remote-first startups and smaller growth companies are more likely to hire junior candidates remotely than large enterprises. Showing a completed financial model, a deal memo, or coursework in M&A or valuation signals readiness and offsets a thin professional history.
Do you need a degree for remote corporate development analyst jobs?
Usually, but the degree matters less than what you can demonstrate. Most remote corporate development analyst postings list a finance, accounting, or business degree as a baseline, yet employers weight demonstrated modeling skills, analytical rigor, and relevant project work heavily. Candidates without a traditional finance background who show completed transaction analysis or investment research often move forward alongside degree holders.
Which industries hire the most remote corporate development analysts?
The sectors hiring the most remote corporate development analysts are Distribution & Wholesale, Technology & Software, and Manufacturing, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. These sectors rely on distributed corporate development teams to evaluate acquisitions, partnerships, and market-entry opportunities without requiring analysts to be on-site.
