Why This Role Matters

We believe partnerships are one of the most scalable ways to grow. As our first Partnership Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in building this function from the ground up. You’ll own our partner strategy end-to-end: from building-up existing partnerships, to identifying new opportunities to launching high-impact co-marketing initiatives and generating qualified leads that drive pipeline.

Drive qualified, partner-sourced leads into our top-of-funnel

Define and execute referral programs and co-selling motions

Align with Sales on lead qualification and partner handoff processes

Work with Product/CS to promote existing integrations

Identify new integration opportunities that drive GTM value

Support co-selling opportunities with tech partners and build enablement materials (in partnership with Sales Enablement and Head of Commercial, with Marketing resources increasing in year two)

Co-Marketing & Brand Visibility (15%)

Collaborate with marketing to amplify reach through partners' channels (note: this will evolve over time, we’ll expect you to take a greater lead here during your first year)

Represent our brand at industry events and association groups where relevant

What Success Looks Like (KPI-Based Bonus Plan)

Your bonus will be based on objective KPIs, such as:

Number of qualified new partners signed (with focus on optimizing existing integration partners)

Partner-sourced leads hitting SQL

Partner enablement and internal alignment

About You

2+ years in partnerships and/or channel development

Must have 2+ years SaaS experience

Experience with CRMs and Prospecting Tools (such as Hubspot, Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator)

Proven track record of generating leads or pipeline through partnerships
