• Develop and strengthen existing partner relationships, identifying opportunities to increase engagement, improve performance, and progress partners through different program tiers.
• Manage the full partner account lifecycle, providing high-quality onboarding, ongoing relationship management, and continuous support to partners and their referred clients.
• Build trusted relationships with accounting and bookkeeping professionals, positioning the platform as a valuable solution for their SME clients.
