About NTWRK BLACK

NTWRK BLACK is a global ecosystem connecting founders, investors, senior executives, operators, and family enterprises across markets and industries.

The company is building an operating layer around these relationships, helping members make relevant introductions, access opportunities, exchange intelligence, and develop meaningful commercial relationships internationally.

The brand, platform, initial infrastructure, and a pipeline of 400+ applicants across 20+ markets are already in place, with the company now assembling its founding membership cohort.

The Role

NTWRK BLACK is seeking a Managing Partner / Co-Founder to join the business at its next stage of growth and take meaningful ownership alongside the existing founder.

This is an ownership-level opportunity rather than a salaried executive position. The successful candidate will make a financial investment into the business and receive equity under an agreed partnership structure.

The Managing Partner will work directly with the founder across commercial strategy, membership growth, partnerships, and the continued development of the NTWRK BLACK ecosystem.

Partnership & Investment

• The opportunity requires both active participation and financial investment.
