What Are We Looking For?

We’re looking for people who are relentlessly curious and committed to continuous learning. AI is reshaping every function across our business, and we enable every team member, regardless of role or level, to build fluency in AI tools and concepts. Those who thrive here actively seek out new solutions, experiment thoughtfully, and apply what they learn to drive better, faster, smarter outcomes.

As a Senior MSSP Partner Contracts Manager, you will be tasked with modernizing and enhancing MSSP partner agreements and building the playbooks that govern how future agreements are created, updated, and negotiated.

• Build and maintain a new agreement playbook and a pricing addendum update playbook.
• Drive the evolution of the MSSP program by streamlining the overall MSSP agreement strategy, working toward a standard agreement that serves the large majority of partners, with defined paths for exceptions.
• Build the MSSP negotiation playbook, defining target positions, acceptable flexibility, and negotiation strategy for any given MSSP scenario.
• Serve as the point of guidance when negotiations fall outside the playbook, working toward mutually acceptable terms and engaging cross-functional senior leadership as required.
