  • VP of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships

    Illi

    Business advisor job in Chicago, IL

    At illi We're a female-founded B2B Brand Engagement agency based in Chicago, primarily working within B2B technology, life sciences and financial services brands. We partner with organizations focusing on positioning, GTM strategies and Sales & Buyer enablement to bridge the gap between brands and their buyers. We operate on a simple but powerful ethos: Empathy with Edge. We dig deep to understand what's driving our clients' decisions, bringing the confidence and grit to ask the hard questions and deliver solutions that actually move the needle. We're looking for a business development leader who embodies our philosophy. Someone who listens as well as they lead. Someone who can read a room, understand what's unsaid, and then have the backbone to challenge assumptions and push for better outcomes. You'll be working alongside a team of experts who move fast, wear multiple hats, and don't hide behind process when action is what's needed. If you thrive in environments where your impact is immediate and visible, and where scrappiness is a strength-you'll understand what we're building here. The role You'll own new business development from the first touch through contract execution. That means building pipeline, identifying the right opportunities (not just any opportunities), and closing deals with clients who value partnership over vendor relationships. You'll also architect strategic partnerships that extend our capabilities and open new markets both within existing accounts and through new connections. This isn't about collecting logos-it's about finding aligned partners who share our commitment to doing great work with intention. This is a deeply client-facing role. You'll be in the room with C-suite executives and decision-makers, representing illi with both polish and authenticity. You are a deeply networked person who can build trust quickly, present with confidence, and ask the uncomfortable questions that lead to breakthrough thinking. What We're Looking For Proven closer + empathy. You have a strong track record of winning significant new business, ideally in B2B agency or professional services. But you don't just chase revenue-you pursue the right relationships and know when to walk away from misaligned opportunities. Self-motivated + resourceful. You build your own pipeline, spot opportunities before they're obvious, and don't need a massive support structure to be effective. You figure things out and make things happen. Confident presenter with substance. You can command a room and present to senior executives, but your charisma is backed by insight. You ask questions that make people think differently and aren't afraid to challenge the brief when it needs challenging. Grit + intention. You bring intensity to your work without burning out your relationships. You're persistent but not pushy. You follow through. You do what you say you'll do. Growth-oriented mindset. You're motivated by commission checks that reflect the hustle, are energized by the challenge of scaling aggressively, and understand what it takes to build sustainable growth, not just quick wins. You're not looking for a fully built machine-you want to be the one who helps build it. What We're Offering This is a full-time, hybrid position based in Chicago with in-office collaboration on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Base salary: $170,000 - $450,000+ Compensation structure: We've built an outstanding and highly lucrative comp plan designed to reward what matters most: closing business. Tiered commission structure ranging from 7-10% of closed revenue, with higher rates unlocking at higher revenue thresholds. Strong performers should expect $450K+ total compensation. Why illi? Our name reflects our mission. Derived from the Latin word for "the other side", illi exists to lead brands toward seeing their customers fully, creating meaningful experiences that inspire action. It's where understanding our customer isn't just about data, it's about seeing the complete picture of their needs, motivations, and challenges. Genuine relationships build trust between brands and buyers, because when emotional understanding meets functional insight, true business potential is unlocked. This is our breakthrough, and it can be yours too. See you on the other side.

Able to explain complex problems; can sell value of own work to others; has willingness to have difficult conversations when necessary. > Technically capable in C++ and Python. Willing to learn new technologies as necessary. Company Description Radix Trading is a proprietary firm focused on quantitative research and scientific trading. We're one of the most active liquidity providers on electronic exchanges globally, and have leveraged a culture of open, collaborative innovation to scale the reach of our ideas and pace of iteration, without having to scale our headcount (we're still less than 150 people across Chicago, Amsterdam, and NYC) . In our industry, the vast majority of ideas will fail. So, since inception, we've focused on continuous enhancement of our automated research platform and cutting-edge technology, allowing us to fail faster than the day prior, glean insights from each idea, and leverage individual contributions to the fullest across our entire organization. We're led by Ben Blander and Michael Rauchman, who played key roles in the rise of electronic trading, but both recognized a major gap in the industry - a true focus on research processes coupled with an open organizational structure that fosters effective collaboration. -------------------------- Ben Blander - former head of Citadel's high frequency group and a key contributor in growing their P&L from $75 million in 2005 to $1.15 billion in 2008 (Source: ********************************* Previously Ben earned a PhD in Math (Algebraic Topology under Peter May) from the University of Chicago. Michael Rauchman - formerly GETCO's CTO, head of Americas equities, and global head of ForEx. As a hands-on leader, Michael was instrumental in the development of many trading strategies as well as the underlying architecture and code. -------------------------- Why trading? If you want to get near-immediate feedback on your best ideas, while leveraging cutting-edge technology, the trading industry is hard to beat. Every day we're competing with some of the smartest, most driven people in the world trying to take our money -- and if we don't stay at the very top of our game in research, technology, and economics, they will. And while the highly-publicized wave of high-frequency or “flash” trading based on sheer speed of execution might have reached its limit, we see continued opportunities with our strategy of using statistical research to outsmart the competition.
