• Bonus: prior exposure to partner programs, channel programs, strategic account management, or ecosystem/industry relations operations

Responsibilities

• Plan and run the cadence of touchpoints across the org's pillars - scheduling, pre-read prep and distribution, note-taking, and follow-up tracking
• Track action items from each forum through to completion and flag anything at risk of slipping
• Maintain a shared calendar of recurring touchpoints across pillars and help keep it free of unnecessary overlap
• Help triage incoming asks, questions, and escalations across GPP, Strategic Accounts, Industry Relations, and Enablement, and route them to the person with the right decision authority
• Track open escalations against defined SLAs and flag items approaching or past due
• Support the team's escalation and governance model, including light reporting on where we stand against the Partner Program Operational Maturity Model
• Own day-to-day administration of the centralized intake process for net-new requests across the org, including requests to engage accountants and partners (e.g., feedback sessions, case studies, research asks, Accountant Council/Partner Council participation)
• Track partner and accountant engagement requests to help ensure rotation across the partner base so the same partners aren't repeatedly tapped
• Maintain the centralized repository of partner and accountant insights, verbatims, and feedback so it stays current and easy for the team to search
• Flag and route requests that fall outside the defined intake process (e.g. program strategy decisions, operational execution) to the appropriate leads
